The Muppets at the Smithsonian

Last Saturday, we headed out to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History to check out the Muppets exhibit. It was fun to see all the old school muppets from our childhood (Go Fraggle Rock!), and watch excerpts from shows. Ellie cracked up watching some of the earlier commercials Jim Henson put on, and honestly so were Jeremy and I.

I wish we could have taken pictures there. At one point, Elinore was sitting on a bean bag next to a garantuan Kermit the Frog. I thought it might scare her (especially since Jeremy was putting her head in Kermit's huge mouth), but she was laughing and trying to grab onto his big, green...erm...hands?

Anyway, it was a great way to kill some time in the day, get out of the house but stay out of the dense humid heat, and have some fun family time.
