THE WIGGLES CONCERT ON THURSDAY!

Ever since we bought the tickets in JUNE, we were telling Tysen that we were going to see a Wiggles concert, just like they showed on T.V.
He didn't get it at first; but, as the week of the concert rolled around and I made him a Wiggles shirt (iron on) and we started X-ing off the days on the calendar, he got more and more excited. Every night before bed we would mark another day off and he would say "When you wake up, you get to see the wiggles on THURSDAY!"
It really was the cutest thing ever to see him get so excited about something.
The day finally came and I think it really sunk in for him when I finally put his precious wiggles shirt on (it had been hanging up, eye level, to taunt him all week)
we drove all the way to San Diego to see the Wiggles.
We got there just in time (thanks to Dan's crazy, "we're gunna be late" driving) and got in our seats
(3 rows back from the stage!!!)
There was some music and talking at first from a "no name" guy that Tysen was not impressed by. He waited patiently and looked as though he knew something better was going to happen.
FINALLY!
There they were! One by one and called out by name over the load speaker!
JEFF! ANTHONY!
at this point Tysen was laughing, pointing and looking quite overwhelmed to see them coming out
(it was all too exciting)
MURRAY! (Murray is his favorite!)
Tysen's Laughter turned into TEARS!
He was a crazed fan!
& SAM!
(he is not so sure how he feels about Sam, being a replacement of Greg and all)
Crying returned to laughter and excitement.
(Insert classic video of Tysen crying/laughing here)

...and at this point Dan and I were rolling in our chairs holding our bellies...it was a very classic moment for us.
They got on with the show
Tysen calmed down
Mommy sang all the songs.
These wiggles sure know how to keep you entertained. It was such a cool concert, I have to say. We were right up front with all the action!

They surprised everybody by coming out in the audience to greet people.
What nice Wiggles they are!

It was fun to see them come out into the audience but I swear each one of the Wiggles almost tripped over Tysen!
Tysen wanted to see Murray the most..Murray came right up and said hello!
(after that, I was sold on the Wiggles..I am considering becoming a Wiggles groupie)

They sang all the songs that were anticipated and danced the moves to go along.

Then they said good bye :-(

We will never forget you Wiggles concert...

Really, a Top Dollar Show!

The only problem is, Tysen thinks we are going every Thursday
