I'm Running Away To The Circus!!

We were hanging out with Mark and Deb yesterday and Deb reminded us that the Circus was at The Stockton Arena... well Aaron and I had never been and the girls were so excited when we asked if they wanted to go, we hopped online and bought the tickets.. $10 per child under 12 and only $17 for adults! We couldnt beat that price, so we went! It was so much fun and really if you've never been to the circus, you have to go at least once.. Aaron and I were totally impressed! The Elephants, the Tigers, the people acts, 7 motorcycles in a metal ball (this was Aarons favorite), the flying trapeze acts, the tightrope walkers, all of it.. totally amazing :) we had really good seats too! Where we were, you were able to see the entire event! Check out the pics:

2 new members of the Heffner Family!

So, Aaron and I thought it would be fun to take a trip to the Reptile Show in Sacramento... yeah I am so not a fan of Snakes and Lizards and Bugs, however I wasnt really expecting turtles or tortoises... of course the babies were just so darn cute we told the girls we'd think about getting a turtle. After 1 1/2 hours of walking around we went back to the turtle guy and decided we'd pick up a turtle. Little did we know, we'd be purchasing 2. Also the guy failed to tell us that we had just purchased Sulcata Tortoises, who are the 3 largest tortoises in the world and can get up to 200+ lbs. Also, the live anywhere from 70 to 120+ years! Here are some photos of the kids at the show, and of course our new little babies! (they are the same age as Jett, born only a week apart!)

Meet Rocky(left) & Chelle(right) .. named by the girls!
