So, we went to Serendipity tonight because we knew Silly Jilly would be there. Silly Jilly makes balloon animals. Two weeks ago she made Caroline a giraffe (George). George looked very strange when parts of him began to pop.
So, we walk over (after pizza, not the healthiest evening...) and Caroline is VERY excited at this point. Silly Jilly offers to make another giraffe, a monkey, a lady bug (I saw one of these, it was pretty amazing - she is much better than Cowboy Gil), and since she didn't offer to make any of the little Einstein's (maybe you have seen their show at 7:00 AM CDT???) we decided on Mickey (he comes on at 7:30).
The entire time Silly Jilly was making Mickey Caroline was screaming, "WOW WOW WOW, LOOK AT THAT!!! LOOK AT THAT!!! WOW WOW, LOOK AT THAT MICKEY!!!" And hopping up and down. It was like an ad for balloon-animal-vendors... And we thought we should share.
Sorry for the low-resolution picture, I only had my phone

And yes, Mickey is bigger than Caroline...
Hi Matt, its Mom... Mickey is pretty cool even in the phone picture but then there is my Grandaughter who is amazing and beautiful. I love you and your family, Mom
Serendipity is my fav ice cream place in StL. I particularly am a fan of the Cookie Monster flavor.
what could be better than amazing ice cream and the best balloon animals in town?!
That is awesome! It is a good reminder to see kids so enthralled and excited about the things we take for granted. They are seeing things for the first time, with new eyes and their joy is contagious!
