As previously planned, we met Steph, Scott, and Sarah at Sesame Place yesterday before they went back to Florida. I am so glad that we found a time and place to see them during their visit here. This worked out perfectly and gave the girls a fun place to play together. We were all slightly disappointed in the park itself, but Scott gets free tickets through work (thanks again, guys!!), so we didn't let it bother us too much. The park was just a lot smaller than we thought it would be and it was poorly managed in certain areas, but we still had a good time. Steph and I rode the rides with the girls while Chris and Scott were left with stroller and camera duties. Camryn REALLY enjoyed the rides and expressed her disappointment (to put it nicely) after she had to get off of each and every one of them. The girls also enjoyed the Elmo's World Live show while the adults enjoyed sitting in the AC for 20 minutes. It was a very hot day, so any opportunity to cool down was a good thing! Unfortunately, Steph, Scott, and Sarah had to leave after a few hours in order to catch their flight home, but we were thankful for the time we got to spend with them. We decided to spend a little more time at the park after they left. Camryn wanted to see Elmo again, so we went to see the Elmo's World Live show for a second time. She enjoyed it just as much that time as she did the first. Then, we saw Abby and Elmo. She was very excited to see them and told us she wanted to give them a hug. But, when she got within 2 feet of each of them, she refused. We were able to convince her to give them both high-fives, but that was absolutely it. I give her credit for at least doing that! We rode a few more rides, including Grover's World Twirl. It is a bunch of teacups that spin really fast. Chris was relentless in spinning the teacup
and Camryn was LOVING it. I was taking pictures of her fun - the one to the right is my favorite picture of the whole day. Her face says it all! After some rides, we walked around for a few more minutes and sat on the Sesame Street "stoop". At that time, it started to rain. We knew it was coming, but we figured we would leave before it started. Nope! I will say that rain never felt so good - it cooled me down quite a bit. We all got soaked walking back to the car, but we had fun doing it! Camryn thought it was silly that we were staying out in the rain. I assumed that she would sleep on the way home, but she was wide awake. She went the entire day without a nap and wasn't even overly cranky. We took that as a sign that she had a really good time!
