Yesterday we took the girls to Sesame Place. Juli was super excited about going to see "where Elmo lives!" As soon as Juli saw this sign she started running and screaming, "SESAME PLACE, SESAME PLACE, SESAME PLACE!!" and dragging poor James behind her!
Waiting in line for tickets.
As soon as we got inside the park, Juli spotted Super Grover. She was much more excited to meet the characters than she looks in the pictures! LOL
There were A LOT of water rides in the park. We did our best to avoid them and ended up promising to come back when it was warm enough to do them. Instead we found lots of fun things for the girls to do. Here's Juli climbing up a mountain of huge balls to go down a slide.
She made it!
The shovel and pail you see behind James and Juli is actually another slide. You climb up in the back of the bucket and slide down the sand.
Next we found Cookie Monster on Sesame Street. Livi wasn't really digging the characters, which if you know Livi is no surprise.
Juli in Mr. MacIntosh's grocery store. No idea who Mr. MacIntosh is, when I was little it was Mr. Hooper's store.
Ernie, Juli and Bert.
Juli and Livi hanging out on Sesame Street. Unfortunately they don't have the Oscar the Grouch trashcan that you could get your picture taken in anymore. :-( Of course they probably haven't had it for years, but how the heck would I know??
Here we are watching Elmo's World Live. Livi still wasn't sure about the characters, even from a distance!
Livi did love this HUGE playpit though. It was all soft surfaces and blocks for little kids. Unfortunately she only got to spend about five minutes there because someone stole our stroller so we had to go look for it. We found it a little while later after some searching around a corner. We think someone grabbed the wrong stroller and when they realized it they just left it there.
Since we found the stroller over by the carousel, Juli and James decided to go on. Juli has a thing for carousels. She loves to ride the one in the mall every time we go there.
Here's Livi waiting while Juli and I went on some flying Elmo ride. Juli wanted to go on it because she "misses the one at Disney." It was a lot like the Dumbo ride, except the cars were Elmos dressed up as fish.
Super Grover Topiary. There were quite a few of these around the park. They were pretty neat.
Here's Livi trying out Juli's Backpack Buddy. She doesn't like it quite as much as Juli does. LOL
Juli and James, smack dab in the middle in the blue and white cup, going on the Teacups.
I took about a million pictures of the teacups hoping to get a few good ones. It was hard because they were moving so fast and Juli is so little I could barely see her in the cup! LOL I love how happy/excited Juli looks in these!
After the Teacups we went to meet Zoe and Elmo. Juli LOVES Zoe. She told me she is her favorite character.
And here is Livi when she spotted Elmo. LOL.
Juli and Elmo.
Here's Juli in the Monster Maze. These punching bag things kept knocking her over. She thought it was pretty funny.
This may have been Juli's favorite part. It was a huge airbag/moonbounce type thing. She went in and was running around like she was flying and doing flips and stuff. In fact if you scroll really fast, it may even seem like she is in action!
On our way out we ran into Zoe again. She was just getting to her photo spot when Juli saw her. As soon as she saw Zoe she ran right over to her.
Goodbye Zoe! See you next time! Muah!
Zoe catching Juli's kiss.
We also saw the Count on our way out.
Here are some more of the character topiaries with little miss attitude.
Believe it or not Juli was asleep before we even got out of the parking lot, which wasn't long since we were at the end of the first row.
Livi held out a little longer, but she eventually crashed too.

So cute! Looks like it was a lot of fun. Can't wait to take my girls there!
OMG!! Looks like SO much fun! We MUST take the girls there. I love Juli's expression on tea cups- priceless. Poor Livi and her dislike for the characters. She'll learn! HAH!
