The Sesame Street/ USO Experience

So Wayne came home the other day and said he had a surprise for the kids. He pulled out four tickets for Sesame Street Live! He had gone into the travel office at the Exchange for a brochure to Disney World and saw that Sesame Street was coming and best of all that it was free!
So that's where we went today! The past couple days I have been "making" Matt and Peyton watch Sesame Street. They mostly watch Disney. Anyway Matt isn't a big Elmo fan anymore...but Peyton is. I kept telling Matt were going to go see Elmo this week...couple days...tomorrow! Anyway he didn't care about that so I finally said to see Grover....Rosita...Zoe...Cookie Monster? Ahh Cookie Monster is his new favorite! He was so excited today when I said today we get to go see Cookie Monster...BUT, you have to take a nap first. That was the easiest time I have ever had putting him down for a nap. And When Wayne went to wake him to see Elmo I and Cookie Monster he woke up and was ready to get dressed and go!
So it was just get in line and hope for a good seat. We got there early enough that we got seats on the second row! Haha didn't Matter much since it turned into a toddler mosh pit once Elmo came down off the stage! Matt sat in his seat until Cookie Monster came down and then he ran off to see him. Peyton had fun and had the biggest cheesiest smile on her face when all the characters came out on stage...she was squealing and laughing! She had more fun than we thought she would.
We are glad that Sesame Street is touring the bases around the states and supporting the troops. It was much appreciated and very fun for all the kids!
