Art!

The kids were a little thrown off that Aunt Jamie wasn't at the art museum last time we visited so we wanted to make sure we found another day to meet up with her! We hung out in the kids area, ate lunch in the cafe and walked around for a bit. I heard on NPR that you will enjoy a classical music concert more if you listen to the music ahead of time. Knowing the music makes it easier to be drawn in maybe? I thought I'd apply that to the art museum by getting out some information booklets Jamie had given us awhile back. The one we picked was focused on "Arts of the Indian Subcontinent and the Himalayas"so we talked about Buddha and the different meanings of what the pose of a statue's hands could mean. Paige got into it a little more than Owen but I think it did help to have things to look for! She was also pretty beat from her dance competition the previous day!

Hi Aunt Jamie!

Jamie took this picture of all of us!

And this one!

And this one! Paige wanted a picture where I was next to the older lady and she was next to the little girl. We got scolded by a museum guard for being too close...oops!

And the moment we thought it was probably time to get the kids home:)
