The actual greatest show...

I know that I talk about my "favorite day of the year" in about twenty different ways... but y'all... this may be my actual FAVORITE day of the year because it was KINDERGARTEN CIRCUS DAY!


I'm sure that we can all agree whether or not you are sending your first kid, your third kid, or even your 10th kid through kindergarten, the year kind of feels like a great big circus! Crazy, fun, a little scary but totally awesome... this event perfectly sums up the entire year in one tiny, ridiculously adorable package. 

The "green group" in dual language showed up ready to be snakes, snake charmers, seals, seal trainers, jugglers and ring master. I mean, can you even with this cuteness?


We took our seats, turned on our cameras, talked about our favorite acts and waited patiently for the actual greatest show to begin and before we knew it, elephants, painted horses, lions, tigers and even some bears began marching in!


Emersyn even got a little weepy this year... "Mom this is the LAST Kindergarten Circus for the Kings. Can you even believe it??" 

I have no idea where she gets her drama from... but I agree with her 100%. There is just something so sweet and special about this school tradition. A momma sitting behind me was talking about when she was a horse in the circus, grandparents talk about when they were in kindergarten at College Hills... I just couldn't love that more!


This show just keeps getting better every single year, and while all the acts are darling, my favorite this year had to be the seals and seal trainer. One in particular was especially talented at getting those seals to clap and flip. 


And of course no circus is complete without strong men and woman(!) ... 


tigers and lions... 


 and of course... painted horses, jugglers, acrobats, clowns, snakes and tight rope walkers!


After the show the talented youth took one more lap around the gym and headed back to real life.


After greeting fans of course!
(Not pictured, a proud daddy that had to return to work and two proud siblings that begrudgingly went back to class!)


But the proudest momma of all managed to snag a picture of the loveliest seal trainer around.


And if you want to take a walk down circus lane
