Non-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving

Hi everyone!

I hope you are all celebrating this Thanksgiving in just the way you wanted! We didn't have any family headed our way so I decided cooking for just three was not MY ideal way of celebrating the day so we packed up and headed for San Antonio. Yesterday we spent the whole day at Sea World and kicked it off by eating lunch with the characters from Sesame Street. I was nervous how Max would like it... I was always intimidated by people dressed in costumes, but after a few minutes warming up he was ALL over them. He would walk away from our booth because Elmo was across the room and he needed to go and hug him. It was really sweet. And since there were so few families yesterday we really had a lot of time with all of them. At one point Max crawled up into an empty booth and both Grover and Elmo came over and sat with him for a good 10 minutes or more. Pre-school heaven!!! Later we walked the park and watched some shows. I'll post pictures from that later. For now our lunch with Sesame Street!

Max meets his hero!

Max and Rosita. She is not one of his "main" characters, but this was a cute picture.
Wow! Big Bird is tall in real life. Way taller than Mommy, and that's saying something!
A little shy at first. He needed Daddy confidence!
Cookie Monster! Nom, nom, nom!

And finally a video of Max, Grover and Elmo. Please excuse me eating in the background but in a situation like this we eat when we get the slightest break!
