SXSW- Days 3,4,5

Friday I took Marlo and Louis to Cherrywood Coffeehouse for the Girls Rock showcase. It was phenomenal.
Here's Marlo dancing on a "stage". She made a few new friends and I had to haul her away screaming because she didn't want to leave.




We continued our adventures through the weekend and were very excited to have Daddy join us. By the end of Friday my back had seized up from carrying both kids and we needed the extra help.

Saturday we went down to Auditorium Shores and saw Groundworks Music Orchestra which is one of our favorites. It's lead by Mr. Neal, who plays at Marlo's school.  The venue was a little dusty and it was windy so I can't say that it was the best experience of the week but it was still fun.

Sunday we made it out to the Pealander Z Family Music Jamboree at Springdale Farms.  This was by far the best show of the week. The music was great (even though we didn't stay long enough to see the headliners) and the venue was ideal. It was so nice to sit in the grass and relax.

All in all we had a great week. On the car ride home today Marlo even said "What a wonderful day." Cute!

Here's some more dancing from Sunday:


Here's a cute pic of Louis on Saturday
And when you're done, YOU'RE DONE! 
This is the beginning of the meltdown that prompted our departure on Sunday.
I think more than anything she was tired of us asking her if she needed to go potty... but I 
can't be sure.  She was pretty tired and maybe a little overwhelmed.
