Helllooo, helllooo, hellooo...

In June, friends Carly and Maria, and their all-female broods, introduced us to Detroit duo and kid cult favorite, Gemini. Since then, Maizey has rocked out to their Raffi-like rythyms, particularly fond of The Pizza Song and The Hello Song

Imagine her excitement on Thursday evening, when they brought their show to Milford.

We kicked off the evening with some time in the playground.
Bus driving and whatnot...

But then, Maizey heard the first riffs...
And things got serious. 

Maria, Leah and Ruby were unable to attend but Carly, Avery and Mila joined us for a rockin' picnic,  
and The Hello Song!

She didn't know what to do with herself.

It took a little while to warm up.

But then Jack got there,
and got his shirt off.

Avery started dancing, 
as well as Mila.

And it was on like Donkey Kong.  



Woo-freaking-hoo!

As an aside, she did get serious again,
 this time about sharing her Big Wheel ice-cream cookie.

But then saw some awesome sister-sharing,
and bucked up.

It was an awesome night.

P.S. Despite what their website says, like Raffi, I suspect Gemini might be of the vampire-sort. Carly and her sister concur that the duo looked, and sounded, the same 27 years ago when they played local elementary schools. Things that make you go hmmmmmm...
