Trip to the Art Museum

Last Saturday we all went to the Toledo Musuem of Art. It is a top ranked museum nationally but we've not spent as much time there as we should. Alex was very small last time we took him and he doesn't remember that trip. This time though he had a lot of fun. He thought it was neat that he could identify the subject of impressionist paintings from across the room, but that up close they looked like blobs and swirls of paint. He loved a painting of a Duke that had a foot that looked like it moved with you as you walked past it. He recognized two paintings by Monet that have been featured in Baby Monet and Little Einsteins kids videos. Becky saw some interesting jewelry on display and in the gift shop. Jason's favorite parts were in the ancient Egypt and modern art sections. Aaron slept through most of it then woke up for a run around the outdoor sculpture park. Next time we'll take a camera.
