The Fresh Beats

For those of you that have kids, most of you know who the Fresh Beat Band is!  Miss Lila is a huge fan! So, this Friday found us heading to Davenport to see the band live!  We have two other fans in the family, Celia and Ruby, so Jason, Jen and the girls came along, as well!

The Fresh Beat Band

We got to Davenport early so we could enjoy dinner at Woodfire Grill and then head to the show!  The girls were SO excited and decked out in their best "rockstar" gear! 

Two girls anxious to get to the show!

After we finished eating we walked a few blocks to the Adler Theater!  We were met with a lot of other kids just like our girls who were so excited to see the show!  As you can imagine, there were plenty of opportunities to buy Fresh Beat merchandise!  Uncle Jason & Aunt Jen treated all the girls to a few souveniers!  Lila chose a headband, just like her favorite Fresh Beat, Kiki, a bracelet, and a flashing necklace!  Woah!  Lot's of fun stuff!  PS - she hasn't taken the headband off other than to go to bed since she got it!

Decked out in all her Fresh Beat gear!

Waiting so patiently!

A girl band in the making?!

For those of you who don't know who the Fresh Beat Band is, as a parent, they really aren't that bad.  They have fun, upbeat songs that aren't done in cartoon style voices, they are literally just a rock band for kids.  I have to admit, I have found myself bobbing my head more than once to one of their songs in the car while Lila is rocking out!

It was time for the band to take stage and the kids went wild!  It was so cute!  Lots of screaming and cheering and once the band started there wasn't a little kid that wasn't dancing!  There were even kids out in the aisles dancing together since for some there wasn't quite enough room in the rows!

"Here We Go!"

They played for a little over an hour before leaving the stage and allowing the kids to cheer for an encore!  They came back out and played another two songs and ended the show by kicking huge beach balls into the audience and popping confetti into the crowd, a perfect ending to the show!

Three very happy little girls!

The concert was a success!  The girls had so much fun!  Saturday morning Lila woke up and requested that she wear the exact same outfit that she wore to the concert, so we obliged and let her!  I sent Jen a message telling her that the night must have been a success since she wanted to wear the same clothes!  Jen replied back, "Ruby said it was the best night of her life!"  Too darn cute!!!!  It is always so fun to get them together and it is great that they are relatively close in age so they can experience these fun things together while they are young!  I can't wait to see what adventure is next for these three!
