Renaissance to Runway

 

Pat and I visited the art museum to check out their new exhibit- Renaissance to Runway, about art influencing fashion. I loved it so much and want to see more stuff like this in the future! Some of it was a stretch but it was neat to think about how Italian Renaissance art might have influenced Italian runway fashion. 
Evidence we were there

Nothing to do with the exhibit but I love how this was framed by the hallway and steps

Yes, I wanted to take this one home

So pretty

The colors!! The art!!

I really want to just wear this and run around for an hour

Everything was so pretty

Pat checking things out

Pumpkin Carving and Halloween!

 

These pictures are not in order but I won't be correcting them!
We carved pumpkins a couple days before Halloween and that was when we found out that the small, bumpy pumpkin I had picked was rock hard and impossible to carve! I assisted the kids though by scooping out pumpkin guts!
On Halloween we had our traditional donuts and cider, and ordered pizza for dinner.  Paige had a couple friends over to hang out and hand out candy and it was so fun just sitting around in the driveway with everyone. It was chilly though and we wished we had a fire, maybe next year!
