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!!!

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...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
