Just A Little Trip
Since we chose to spend money on the house rather than a big trip this summer, we just took a few little day trips and one overnight trip for a bit of a vacation. Our overnight trip was to Houston, where we visited the Houston Museum of Natural Science and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston . I'll just go ahead and say that I enjoyed the Museum of Fine Arts best. I have loved learning about dinosaurs since I was a child and it was exciting to see the new exhibits. With three kids in tow, though, the other exhibits and the size of the museum made for a long day. The Museum of Fine Arts was more my speed. I am always impressed with the range and quality of exhibits there. We have a poster from the museum that features this beautiful piece, The Elder Sister , by WILLIAM BOUGUEREAU: The children were so excited to see it in person, in all its glory....
