Catching up and seeing Elmo

Some quick answers:

1. Bug is getting the play set. it is out of stock, but I have the rain check slip and will be calling this week. Now to find a truck to rent with an 8 foot bed and hire some nice handy men to put it together for Bug.


2. Guatemalan shoes- these are the closest pictures I can find. First- no straps- but lots of sparkles, and then the higher the heel the better. Not sure why Bug thinks these are the perfect shoes for me or the perfect shoes for walking around Disney, but apparently they are. Unfortunately, he is going to be very disappointed because after having 4 pins and 2 screws in my foot and being in a cast and on crutches for 26 weeks, there is no way I am wearing anything remotely like these shoes.
On to our day- We had breakfast with Elmo at Donald's. Elmo was really into checking out Bug's chocolate milk and making sure Bug was drinking it all gone.


This is attempt one to get Bug to love on Elmo. Personally, I think Elmo is screaming for help. I was, of course, too busy laughing to help Elmo.


Finally, some love for the red, furry monster.





Watch me NOW




N and D, checking out Elmo's moving truck.





Momma and Bug checking it out too.



Inside, ready for the show



J and N- ready for the show to start.




The boys are waiting- D cried for the first part of show- a little too intense to start off, N was OK with it, Bug loved it.



Big Bird and Elmo starting the show





All our friends- dancing and singing
Cookie monster came out into the audience - actually, all the characters did. Bug was so disappointed that Elmo did not come near us. He kept holding up his Elmo doll and by the end was waving at Elmo




Cookie Monster raised his rating at our house by dressing as a fireman.



Looking at the Elmo balloon on the ceiling and then back at the ones the kids all around us got at intermission. The balloon's were $8.00 each, i was bound a determined not to buy one for Bug. I offered up a balloon from Kroger's and he initially took that bribe.



N and D- enjoying the show



Rosita teaching us all Spanish.



the finale
Yes, Bug got a balloon. He was so happy. Unfortunately Momma put it in the trunk and it got loose when we got to Mam and Pap's house. bug now has a Dora and Diego balloon to replace the Elmo balloon.



We planted some more veggies today- this is what happens when the temperature goes up to the 80 something degrees. Since we use raised beds, the ground should be nice and warm. We fertilized and watered in 6 tomatoes, 3 peppers, 2 cucumbers, 1 zucchini. Tomorrow we will plant the radishes, the carrots, the peas, the watermelon and the sunflowers. Our garden is looking great.
Love and hugs,
Deb
