This morning we went to see Sesame Street Live and it was great! We've been telling Julia everyday for about a week now that she was going to see the real Elmo. We arrived early so we could buy a souvenir, eat a snack, and walk around a bit. Here's Julia and Liam checking out Elmo and of course Julia has her own Elmo, can't leave home without him. 
Daddy got in the picture with Elmo too! 
Julia enjoyed walking around before the show with her new spinner toy. 
Having the perfect snack for today - Elmo and Big Bird crackers and playing with her spinner. A lady at the post office told me yesterday that she (Julia) would brighten any sad day and it's so true. She's just so cute and makes everything better...she really is a joy. 
Only a few minutes until showtime and Julia has no idea what's in store for her. She only sat in the chair for a few minutes, she mostly just sat on our laps. 
The look on her face was priceless during the show. She was so excited! She kept pointing at herself and then the characters...her way of saying she wanted to go see them on stage. 
Here's many of the characters, of course Elmo is her favorite and who wouldn't like Big Bird. We like Abby too since she's very girly! 
Another action shot of the characters right before they did a parade. 
Back at home playing with my spinner toy before naptime. It was a fun day and Julia was sad once the show ended and Liam had tears in his eyes once it was over...he was quite upset. They both had a great time! Thanks to Katie and Preston for invting us!
Thank you so much for sharing Julia's special trip to Sesame Street Live with us on the blog. I can see the excitement in her eyes. I'm sure that Daddy was reliving his trip to Sesame Street Live so very many years ago. (But Daddy's favorite character was Bert.) These times are priceless, they will live forever in Julia's recollection of her childhood. Plus the added bonus of technology to catch all of this with.
