I Miss the Circus

It's that time of year! My dad has had a tradition of taking my little sister and I to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus every year since my sister was a tot. By the end of my sister's teenaged years and my young adult years, the circus was getting a little repetitive, but now the cycle has begun anew: my dad has begun taking my sister, her husband, and their daughter to the circus! I live across the country now, so I am not there for the circus outings: what had become a bit old I now miss terribly!

Below are photos of my little sister posing on the elephant at about age seven and her daughter posing on the same elephant a few weeks ago. (Dad is still digging around for the photo of my sister on the elephant at age three because that would really show their resemblance!)
