Elmo

Kade was watching T.V. while I was attempting to clean the house. All of a sudden I heard him shouting "Elmo, Elmo". I looked at the T.V. and saw a commercial about "Elmo and the Green Thumb", a musical with all the Sesame Street gang. Kade was so excited I decided to see how much the tickets were. After I found out the cost, I talked to Eric and we both agreed that it would be fun to take the boys to see Elmo.


All week Kade had been talking about going to see Elmo. I had to keep telling him it wasn't until Saturday. When Saturday finally arrived he seemed so excited. This picture is of Kade before we left. Doesn't he look totally thrilled to be seeing Elmo?

We loaded everyone into the car and headed off to the Thomas & Mack at UNLV. We arrived nearly an hour early so we had to sit outside. A few minutes later they started to let everyone in. Once we walked in there was several booths of Elmo and Sesame Street paraphernalia. We decided to buy Kade a t-shirt, a program, and an Elmo toy. We thought Kade would be stoked to be there, but this is the face we got.

After the show started we thought Kade would get really excited, but we got the same face. However, the person that was completely ecstatic was Kyle. He had a huge grin on his face and was laughing and screaming. He was so excited!!! I wish I had of recorded it because he was so thrilled when all the Sesame Street characters came out on stage. He was more eager and elated than most of the children around us. Here are some pictures of kyle watching the show.

Overall, we had a really good time. We wish Kade had of been a little more excited to be there, but maybe he was just not use to the surroundings. After this experience I appreciate what my parents did for us when they took us on trips and we acted uninterested or bored. It is so much more fun to see children happy and smiling!
