One of the biggest treats this trip was my sister and her wonderful boyfriend Jason putting together two magical experiences for the babies: Circus Vargas and The V Show. I remember seeing my first show in Las Vegas years and years ago, it was a show Eliza was working on at the time, and I was just star struck. That is how the kids were!
The V Show was extra special because one of the featured performers was Jason. Callum was just mystified by all of it. He wants to grow up and be just like Jason, but with rockstar hair (his words not mine). Jason and all of his fellow counterparts were very neat and some of the best I had ever seen. The best critics though were the boys (Rachel slept through the whole thing)! They couldn't stop talking about the birds and how neat Uncle Jason is!!!
Jason also was so very kind by getting us tickets to Circus Vargas. That was mind-blowing. They are a no animal circus. Instead they focus, much like Cirque du Soilel, on mind blowing human feats of art. They had a little of everything and it was so neat!!! Rachel and Harmon especially were so affected by it. They are my two who are going to run off and join the circus. They wanted to go and try the acrobatics on their own (which I have vetoed).
The arts have always been instrumental in my own life. Everything I do I try to make it artistic (which of course never impressed accounting when I had to turn in quarterly budgets). It makes me happy to see how amazed my kids are with art now. Each has their own unique talents and they may not end up going into magic or cirque performance their lives will be enriched as they learn to appreciate the stage and work on their craft while they are young. This trip they got to see how dreams can come true when you put your heart into something.
