Sesame Street Live!

Zoey, Grandma, and I went to Sesame Street Live this morning. We weren't too sure what Zoey thought she was going to see, since this was her first show ever. She was very excited though-- so she HAD to wear her Sesame Street Dress--again.

We got to the Target Center a little on the early side, but there was a lot for Zoey to watch and take in. She wanted to go onto the main floor and see the stage--so Grandma walked her down there and took the picture above.

Then the lights went down and stage lit up. Zoey's eyes grow wide and she exclaims, "There's Elmo and Big Bird."

The theme of the show was "When I Grow Up." Elmo asked the audience what they wanted to be when they grow up. Zoey answered in a nice polite voice, loud enough for just the people around us to hear, "I want to be a princess!" It is interesting that the theme was growing up, because all this week, Zoey has been telling us what she wants to be when she grows up. "First, I want to be a princess. Then a ballerina, a baker, and a cow." Today she added teacher--she wants to teach her cousin Kylie how to read. (Something tells me that Kylie will pick up the reading thing just fine, though)

All in all, Zoey had a wonderful day. Tonight as I was putting her to bed, she said that she wants to go see Sesame Street again. Someday. . .

What a fun time. I hope you stayed warm! It reminds me of when Poppa and I took Tyler and Tammy to Sesame Street Live. Tammy had a temp of 102 and was loaded up with Tylenol but we couldn't miss the show!
