Fun with Elmo and Grover.

Today was better than I could have imagined. We had our own personal concert with Elmo and Grover. We got to the station early, so we were sent to the green room to wait. Well, in walks Elmo and Grover!! The kids jumped out of their seats. M wouldn't leave my side, but C walked right up to them. Grover came over and gave M a high five. They went into the dressing room for a little break. A few adult fans came in to take pictures, but they didn't get to because the characters had to be back on the set. Then while we were in the bathroom, Elmo and Grover snuck into the dressing room again. We were sitting on the couch and out pops the characters again. They played with the kids for about 15 minutes and that is how we got so many great pictures. My camera was not even fast enough! M was a little more shy than C, but they both sat on Elmo and Grover's lap. They played peek-a-boo or "a-boo" as M used to call it. They danced around a little bit and then were called back onto the set. Then the camera guy came in to get us. The kids did not let go of my shirt. Then they saw "their friends" and left me behind lol. I took a few more pictures of them on the set right before they started taping. The kids are not going to be on TV for long, but the whole experience was great. The kids got to watch Elmo and Grover sing "Sunny Days" and we got to spend some more time with them after the taping. We were there for an hour and most of the time was fun filled with M and C's "new friends."
