Yesterday we had a circus birthday for Connor and his cousin Ellie. They both turned 4 within a day of each other and they’ve always shared a special bond. The kids wanted to do a backyard circus party so that’s what we did! Big shout out to my sister-in-law Rebecca & mother-in-law Sherry for making all the costumes! Everything turned out so good and I think all the kids had fun participating in the circus. We had perfect weather yesterday too….I was actually sweating! I can’t believe these two are already 4 years old. My baby is growing up too fast!
Most of this post is going to be pictures of the party. Hope you enjoy Connor & Ellie’s backyard circus 🙂

We rarely get a family picture together so I was happy to get one

Yummy popcorn cookies my friend Addyson made

















Welcome to the circus!



The lions and tigers have SHARP teeth and claws


They do tricks like rolling and jumping

For the final act…jumping through the RING OF FIRE!!!



Connor was “The Strong Man”
He lifted a MILLION pounds!





Butterfly ballerinas were a site to see! They dance and jump all over the stage 🙂



Ellie climbing high above the crowd to walk the tightrope









Nell & Granddaddy





Thank you to all our friends and family who came to celebrate!
We love you all & happy birthday to the cutest 4 year olds I know!
CONNOR + ELLIE




such a cute party!!!!!!
I absolutely love this theme and think it came out adorable. I think the show is a genius idea, especially since everyone got to participate. But I really do think Connor as the strong man is my favorite part!
