Happy 40th Anniversary Sesame Street

I love Sesame Street. Today Sesame Street turns 40. I grew up on Sesame Street. I remember watching the show and singing along with the songs. I liked all the residents, but I really enjoyed Bert and Ernie. I even had Bert and Ernie gloves as a kid. My mom had gotten me the Sesame Street record collection so that I could sing all the songs in my room ( Think that I still have those records. Maybe my future children can listen to them). I know all the words to the songs "C is for Cookie" and " One of These Things is Not Like the Other Thing". I think that the Count actually helped me learn how to count. I always wanted to go to my local corner store, maybe hoping it was like Mr. Hoopers store and Big Bird and Maria would come walking in. From Big Bird, to Oscar the Grouch to Elmo, they all share in the wonder of a childs mind in making learning fun. Happy Anniversary Sesame Street and I wish you 40 more years!!!

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
