My little girl is growing up WAY too fast! Friday, we took one last "summer" trip with my Mom to the biggest art museums in San Francisco: The Legion of Honor and the de Young.
She did REALLY well all things considered. I made her a little tote that had compartments for a sketchbook, colored pencils and pamphlets/postcards/tickets. 
A few weeks ago, she thought she invented pointillism so I introduced her to Seurat and she fell in love with this painting he did of the Eiffel Tower and guess where the original is? That's right- in San Francisco! I LOOOOOVE going to art museums and it was such a treat to be able to share that experience together.
The babies like hanging out without clothes these days- it's their favorite outfit! Lily's hair is just now sort of starting to grow!!! Liam's is so cute and curly! Here they are looking at a book, searching for familiar pictures and letters (they can point out A, Y and a few others now). 
Everybody is grounded! They just need to slow down and not grow up so fast!!!

Oh, Bethany, you put us all to shame. While I'm letting my kids watch Sponge Bob all summer, Abby is discovering Suarat...or however you spell his name. What a fun outing though. I went to the impressionist exhibit at the D.C. art museo and it was awesome. You're a great teacher.
Love you and even though I'm terrible at communicado I think of you often and hope things are going well.
I want to go too! Liam's hair is insane. Can't believe school is upon us already. sigh...
I hear if you stuff your kids in a box they don't grow as fast.....
Wow, so fun! Abby is going to be the smartest person in the world, I just know it. And I love that California has a de Young museum...reminds me of BYU's de Jong.
Oh, Heather, I miss you too! Believe me, 99% of the time it's SpongeBob for us as well!
Was she really as interested as she seemed? Talk about the apple not falling far from the tree, three generations you all look great!
I'm with Heather:) Heather, maybe James and Abraham can bond over sponge bob..Anyway, Bethany, you are amazing and I love the great things you are doing with your kids. It is honestly very inspiring. I love the picture of Abby standing in front of the painting. Thanks for sharing!
