My Weather Reporter

Saturday after Halloween Eric was too sick for our travel plans so I took the girls to St. Louis Galleria (one of my favorite malls) for a day of Sprouts. Sprouts, for those of you that don't know, is a wonderful preschool channel. It has a lot of great learning shows and great activities to do at home. I received an email that Sprouts was Live at the Galleria so as a surprise I took the girls and let Daddy rest. Barney was there and taking pictures, Kelly and Chica were there allowing kids to get a video of them doing the weather report. By doing the weather report this is also an audition to win a trip to the Sprout Studio in Philadelphia, PA. We stood in line for 1 hour and 40 mins for Barney alone! We made lots of friends in line and actually my girls were very well behaved...yes, even Ava! Once we got close enough to see Ava just stared and waved at Barney non-stop. So we got our picture taken, and the best part the entire even picture, video and all was FREE! So after Barney we were off to the other side to stand another hour in line for Kelly and Chica (part of the Sunny Side up Show) for Jenna to do the weather report. Girls are still behaving fairly well. Jenna is asking every 5 mins. if it is our turn next and Ava bit me so hard and for so long on the shoulder I thought I was going to fall over. Nonetheless, we finally made it to our turn. Jenna ran up to Kelly and said "Look Kelly, I have pigtails just like you!" Kelly then asked if she could do Jenna's audition with just her because she was fantastic and wanted to give her a shot. She was ready to stand in line to do it again when it was over. The long lines were well worth the wait! I headed to Starbucks quickly after for a re-boost!
Still waiting for access to the video they took of Jenna but here are some still shots.
