Elmo Live

Elmo came to Jackson! Jacob loves Elmo and Clay actually got to go with us. We had the best time. Jacob was so excited!! When Elmo came out on stage, he just screamed, "Elmo! Elmo!" He turned and looked at me and said, "Mama, Elmo!" It was awesome!!! What a great experience!

Our Family at Elmo Live. Notice the football. We don't go anywhere without a football.

This is one of the best stories of the night. We walked into the Coliseum, and there was a booth selling Elmo items. Clay said, "Well, I guess we have to get him something." He had this little smile on his face. I said that we didn't have to because I could get the same thing they were selling for $12 for $5 at Target. Clay said, "But do you really think we can get away with not getting him anything?" I said yep! Then we went to our seats. Kids were running around everywhere with Elmos and shirts with Elmo and balls with Elmo on them. Jacob kept pointing and screaming, "Elmo! Elmo!" Clay turned and looked at me and he had this weird look on his face. He said, "I going to get him one. And I am getting the big one!" Clay was like a little kid! He was so excited about getting Jacob his Elmo. A $25 Elmo, I might add! They came walking back to me and Clay was smiling saying, "I got him the big one." And Jacob was smiling saying, "Elmo!" Clay is a great Daddy!! You can see in the picture above how excited Jacob was about his Elmo.

This is a picture from where we were sitting. We had great seats!

Jacob and Elmo and football.
Jacob wanted Elmo to sit beside him.

I thought this was a great picture. You can see how much he was really loving the show. And Elmo too!

During the intermission, Jacob thought Elmo was a little thirsty and needed a sip of milk.

He also shared his chicken quesadilla with Elmo.

This is Jacob reaching for the lights. They had a great light show. This was during the song, "The Hustle." They had a "disco ball" light effect going around the room. Jacob was trying to catch the lights.

This was towards the end of the show. Jacob and Elmo wanted to sit in the chair by themselves.

Yeah! What a great show!
