Can You Tell Me How To Get

How to get to Sesame Street? I wanna wish them a Happy Birthday!!! Today Sesame Street is 40! That is impressive. I think almost everybody I know can quote a Sesame Street skit or saying. It's amazing to think of all the things we have grown up with - or without. Neither me or my kids don't know a world without Sesame Street. Devan's first birthday cake was Ernie and a rubber duck because..."rubber ducky, you're the one. You make bath time lots of fun. Rubber ducky I'm awfully fond of you." Because of Ernie we had lots of rubber ducks around the house which is why Jordan likes them so much now. That is also how Devan got his nickname. Yes, Devan has a nickname. If you want to know, you will have to ask him. I'm not gonna tell you, but you know it can't be good since it was given to him from his loving sister when she was one year old. :)

Band is over - can I get a WHOOP, WHOOP!?! Devan is just as excited. Their last performance was on Halloween. They had a competition at Middle TN State University. When all the schools were done performing, the MTSU Marching Band came out and performed for all the students. It was really fun to see them. They were all in costumes as well. Some of the best ones were: Velma (from Scooby Doo), Taylor Swift and Kanye West, the dance team girls were all dressed in the Tom Cruise from Risky Business white men's dress shirt and white socks, the baton twirlers were all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the snare drummers were all Mariachi guys with big ponchos, sombreros and thick heavy mustaches. They all looked great and it was just so much fun for the kids to see how it could progress. It was a really nice way to end the season.

There are some amazing videos on youtube. You need to do a search for animusic and watch a few of them. It's incredible. It's like nerdy science geeks made music from science. Google is or Yahoo search it or whatever but get to a video example of how animusic works and prepare to be amazed! DO IT - DO IT NOW!!!!!

Awwww!!! Sesame Street is the BEST!! I have always wanted to visit, but never had the chance. It's as old as I am...but there is not a day that goes by that Sesame Street is NOT a part of my life! My son grew up with it and it was great to be able to watch it all over again with him!

And, why am I not surprised you are trolling around for some nerdy thing on the internet?!!? :)
