This past weekend, we had the opportunity to see Sesame Live! Make a New Friend at the Modell Lyric Opera House in Baltimore, MD. Blake's dad was able to join us and we also spent some quality time with my brother, sister-in-law, and my nephew and niece.
Thankfully it wasn't as packed as I thought it would be for a Saturday afternoon. We paid, I think, $12 for Grand Tier seating but we were actually seated in the Orchestra. It was pretty rad!
Blake got a little nervous at first when they turned off the lights and there were flashing lights on the stage. The characters started coming out and it was a bit much for him... but once he saw Elmo... it was a wrap! This little boy was standing on his dad's lap and clapping his hands and pointing to Elmo.
I don't know how Elmo does it. But I love that he makes my son so happy!

| Sesame Live! Make a New Friend |
Sesame Live! Make a New Friend was a 90 minute show. I had no idea they expected kids to pay attention for that long. And I honestly didn't think Blake would last. After 45 minutes of dancing, clapping, pointing, and smiling with Blake, they turned the lights back on and there was a 15 minutes intermission. We thought the kids would be done by that point but instead Blake just ate his snack and drank some milk.
After intermission, there was still 45 minutes left in the show and Blake was back to dancing and clapping on his own.
It makes my heart jump for joy and kind of makes me want to shed a few tears when I see him so ecstatic over things like that. I just love that he is so enthusiastic about music.
The next show we're going to see is Disney on Ice in November!
