Sunny Days

We took a trip to Busch Gardens last Monday. We woke up to breezy and rainy weather but it was perfect. We got to the park just after 9 and it wasn't crowded at all. By the time we got there the rain had stopped and it turned out to be a beautiful day. The new Sesame Street place just opened the weekend before and it was a big hit, especially with the girls. Tre's never been a big fan of the giant characters but at least he's not scared of them. Joey asked where Elmo was from the moment we got there and they loved the show and meeting some of the characters at the end. Joey cried when Elmo disappeared after the show though. It wasn't until just before we left that we realized you could go into a room and meet Elmo and Big Bird and have your pictures taken. Elmo was great- he danced with the kids and hugged and gave high fives. Frankie wouldn't stop hugging him and was so excited, with her mouth wide open.
