Sesame Street LIVE!

For Rudy's birthday, Gran and Papa bought us tickets to go see Sesame Street Live.  The day was finally here and we were all so excited to see Elmo!
We were in the mood for spoiling, so we went all out and let the kids have it all :)

Posing before the show with Elmo and their new balls they picked out
Attempted family selfie - not so good at this! (Ben stayed back, we figured the noise and excitement of it all would be too much for such a little guy)
The characters really were awesome to watch.  I think I enjoyed it as much as the kids!  Lots of singing and dancing - lights, colors, air confetti and streamers, balls thrown through the crowd - it was a par-tay!
Scenes from the show...
Avery was SO into it.  She kept saying, "See!  See!" and pointing to show me Elmo.  When Elmo would leave the stage, she got very concerned.  She'd get 1 inch from my face, put both her hands on my cheeks and ask, "Mom, where Elmo go??" Thankfully, he never stayed behind scenes for very long!
Rudy was mesmerized.  Out of nowhere he told us, "I want give Elmo five!"  When the action was happening, he was in the zone
Intermission balloons...
…and their first tastes of cotton candy!

Avery had a blast.  She was even up dancing in the aisles!
I have a short video clip, but not sure how visible it is… I'll share regardless:
We all had a great time and John and I really enjoyed doing something fun with them!  Thanks Gran and Papa!!
