Max went to his second concert ever on Saturday night. It was Pentatonix and it was held at Ak-Chin which is an outdoor venue. We went with our core group of friends and when we bought the tickets way back in March it sounded like a great idea, but fast forward to 110 degrees in September it was pretty hot outside. Our family did not know who Pentatonix was, but we learned quickly while we were there. They are an acapella group and they were fabulous. I am glad we bought lawn seats because we were able to relax on our blankets and we weren't within the crowd of people where it was probably extremely hot. I am not going to lie, I was going to bail on going that night due to the heat, but I didn't. I was focused on hanging out with our friends and enjoying a "nice" evening listening to music. It ended up being a fantastic night.
Jessica brought all the kids' cooling towels to help with the heat. I have heard of these things, but this was my first time using one and they are definitely worth it. The towels really helped cool everyone off. It was a hit with the kids...and adults.
Max had fun using our cell phone to wave the light from side-to-side. He's starting to get in the groove of concerts...even though he still says concerts are not his thing. I think he gets that from me.
It was a late night and Max can't handle late nights. He tried to fall asleep on my lap, but the music was too loud. Our family ended up leaving halfway through the concert because Max was soooo tired and it was already 10pm.
On Sunday, we went to see Stella perform at the children's theater. She played Lucille in Junie B Jones and she did a fantastic job. It's so fun to watch her do what she loves. Max isn't that into plays but he likes to go support, and watch, Stella perform.
