A Wiggly Concert!

November16

On Wednesday Nov. 12, Jace and I went to Lexington KY to go to a Wiggles Concert.  It was a long drive, but so worth it!  Jace and I both had the best of time!  I’ll never forgot the look on Jace’s face when he first seen the Wiggles Live!  They came driving out in their Big Red Car and Jace said “Oh Wow!” Like he couldn’t believe it was real!

The best part was when he was standing in his seat and he lend over and put his arm around my neck and laid his head on mine and just watched the show.

We had great seats right up front, second row center!!  So I had a sign to hold up that said “Jace is playing his guitar with Murray”.  For those of you who don’t know Murray is the red wiggle and Jace’s favorite.  Murray plays the guitar.

So as the Wiggles came out in their car I was holding the sign, no need to hold it over my head, since I was so close I just held it in my lap and they could see it.  Murray seen it right way and nodded his head.

I knew that during the show they read the signs, so I made sure it said his name so they would say his name.  And they did!  It was Murray who read the signs that night.  And he read it to everyone and said how the drawing of him was so nice…thank you very much!!  LOL

The show was great.  And kept Jace’s attention very well, which is a task in itself!  During the show the children can give roses to Dorothy the Dinosaur and bones to Wags the Dog.  And the Wiggly dancers come down to collect them all.  While the Wiggly Dancer just passed right by us in the front row.  So Jace was waving his around and even tried to toss it at Dorothy.  When Anthony, the Blue wiggle, seen him with it.  He even jumped down off the stage to take it personally from Jace to give to Dorothy.  He asked his name and as I was telling him, Murray said “That’s Jace!”  So it was cool that he remembered!!  Then Captain Featherswordeven jumped down to take Jace’s bone for Wags.  So it was very interactive for Jace.

I didn’t stop to get a shirt for Jace before the show because the line was so long, so I thought that I would do during the show, because I knew it would be long again after.  So we ran up and bought some stuff and as I was walking back I heard Jace’s favorite song “Play your guitar with Murray” (what else would it be! LOL).  I didn’t have time to get back to our seat, so I darted into the first section and run to the bottom on that area, which only went half way down.  But at least Jace got to hear and see some of it, but it would have been great to see that from down front.

After the show ended people jumped up to the stage where the wiggles were still at.  So I jumped up and put Jace on the edge of the Stage just as Murray was heading to the back and he stopped and came back and shook Jace’s hand.  Half way home all I heard was “Shake Murray Hand!”  It was the first thing out of his mouth the next morning too!  He thought that was the best thing in the world that he got to shake Murray’s hand!!
Enjoy the photos!!
