Elmo!

Today we went to a local store to see....

Megan loves Elmo. She was a little nervous about this big fuzzy guy though. I'd figured as much. The funny thing was that she loved seeing him... as long as he didn't get too close. We did finally get up within touching distance, but a photo op or a hug were out of the question - but we did exchange a High Five. Then for the next 3 hours, she would just up and start chattering about Elmo - go figure. You would've thought we'd spent the day with him instead of only about 2 minutes.

Afterwards, we grabbed some friends who joined us for the Elmo excursion, and we headed to the play area at the mall. (Note Megan's Elmo overalls which she did happily point out to Elmo.)

Will joined us at the play area - very amused with the fish...

Macie, looking a little reflective with our scaly friend...Somehow I missed Caroline in the photo op's.... But it was good seeing you guys there too!

Then we headed over to the Merry-go-round...

Megan and Kenny enjoyed their ride - as did I... it was a nice moment of silence watching a little girl mesmerized with all the animals.
