Art Museum.....

Yestertay it was 100 degrees in Toledo!!!!  We decided to do something inside to try to stay cool.  We decided to go to the Toledo Art Museum.  We had been there before but I really liked it, just had to talk the boys into it.  They didn't give me to hard of a time, I think they just wanted out of the hotel room.  Since the last time we were there Michael had read "The Caulder Game" so he wanted to see the piece by Alexander Caulder.  Anthony wanted to see the traveling colored glass exhibit.  There were some really cool pieces and some not so cool pieces.  We weren't allowed to take any picture of the Caulder mobil or in the glass exhibit.  But they do allow pictures of the really old stuff so I have a few to share ;)

 The Toldeo Art Museum

 Jacob made his own art.

 The boys worked hard on putting a "broken" bowl back together with this other kid who happened to be there.

 They were very proud when they got it together!!!

Mummified cat that had been sacrificed to the gods.

I just like the way this looked from the back with the light hitting the front.

Awesome snake ring.

I loved the expression of Mary.

One of my favorite things in this museum...a courtyard.  It isn't a real courtyard but I love it.  Would love to have a house with a real courtyard!!

After the Museum we went to pick up Mike.  We headed back to the hotel to swim.  On the way back my breaks started really grinding.  It made me really nervous so I decided that when I took Mike home I would drop Alyssa off too so I wouldn't have to drive back up to her house this morning when I left.  She usually just stays the whole time with us.  I don't think anyone was happy about it but no one fussed.  The boys and I got up this morning and headed home.  We got gas but we didn't even stop to eat lunch.
