Jule's birthday surprise

Jule's Surprise Birthday party! Jule's wife Katy planned for months, getting tons of Jule's friends on board for the big surprise.
Wren and I drove to Spokane with Robyn the day before the party to help out. Like Wren building a fire-pit for the party.
I made these buttons for the event.
There was cake...
And an entire pig!
 We also juggled while Robyn (Jule and Wren's dad) played accordion.
 There were literally truckloads of kids.
Katy did a spectacular job of keeping it all a surprise. And what a grand surprise it was. And all at their amazing cabin in Spokane.
Unclear in this otherwise amazing photo, is an awesome coozie made by Katie for the celebration as well. Cheers to birthdays, surprises, and gorgeous lake cabins in the woods.

Mom and Dad's 44th Anniversary

This year mom and dad decided to celebrate their 44th Anniversary by staying at the Lummi (Dad's an official "card-holder" now) casino hotel, and coming to Vaudevillingham.
Sadye and I sang her hot dog song, with a few added lines to help celebrate their 44 year anniversary.
This was their reaction, captured by the talented Thaddeus Hink.
Priceless. I love these two!

I love this festival. I sure hope they have me again for my 8th annual time. =)

My Circus Valentine 2017

This year, Wren and I created a ball juggling routine set to music and rhyming lyrics we wrote about love. It included me in tear-away pajamas, and Wren doing solo amazing ball juggling, ending with us ball juggling together.
I performed my Hands of Time act, having adjusted it to fit the theme of Love.
This amazingly talented and hilarious guy was in our show...Ezra.

Mom and dad were there, but we never mad it into the photobooth together, but Wren's mom did with her lady-posse!
The aerialist ladies also made it in...
The beginning our Sadye's and my love of being Hot Dogs is captured here.
 Anneka and Dream and I were lucky enough to get a photo with Lucas Hicks and his wonderful mom, Glenna.
 Somehow, the entire cast made it into the photobooth!
(Laura, Jules, Terril, Jess, Daniel, Sam, Dream, Jill, Esther, me, Wren, Sadye, Anneka, PJ, Don, Chipp, Heidi, Lara)
 Thanks to Jeff Lefferts and Lindsey for making the photobooth happen every year. We love it!

Hickstravaganza!

I had the honor of co-organizing a benefit event for an extraordinary human...
Lucas Hicks.
My folks came, and my dad brought a bunch of his yummy homemade apple cider, brandy and moonshine. There was a bar, Kurly's fry cart, a silent auction, live music (Bar Tabac,
and The Gallus Brothers),
a square dance, and a circus show with Jason Quick juggling and bed of eggs, Dream and PJ on Silks,
I did the pig dance, and Wren and I did the rope act.
Dream on Lyra, and Casey as MC.
It was a fabulous night, and we raised just over $15,000 at our 3-hour event.
Here's a write-up about it.
Thanks to the numerous donors, volunteers, and attendees.
What a smashing success!
