The Sacred Circus

My son and his family have an aerial troupe, called the Sacred Circus, that performs at festivals.

And my two new grand fairies are amazing to watch.

Well, that is when I can watch… sometimes I have to cover my eyes.  They are too daring for me!

While in Missouri for the wedding, we also attended "Shamonic Boom" a festival where they were putting on their show.

Miss Tree (or should I start calling her Mrs. Tree?) had dislocated her wrist the week before, so couldn't do her act. 

She did a substitution, of this sling performance, although, I think she might have over used her hand anyway.

Her daughters stepped up and filled in for her, it was so impresive to see these young girls be so professional and take over.

Of course, with their skills, it worked out well. 

It was pretty cool that on my first official day as their grandmother, I had so much to beam and boast and be proud of. 

Sugarwings' momma brought the heat with her fire hooping too. I always have a lot of reasons to be proud of this girl.  Did I mention that she works full time as an RN while getting a further degree?

Sugarwings was impressive too.  It was moving to hear her get up on stage and speak so confidently to the audience and tell us that "circus comes from the heart".

She even  had a small part in the show.

My son is the DJ and announcer, he knows how to get a crowd going, too, with building the beats.  Well, I think that is how it is done, I know that it is more than just playing a song and that he is pretty good at it.

It was quite a show. I'll leave you with a few more pictures of the event.
