Museum Day!

Today was National Museum Day so we decided to take the kids to the Springville Art Museum. It wasn't too crowded and ended up being a lot of fun. They served refreshments which the kids loved of course and had activities for the kids. Addie, Cam, & Emery painted handkerchiefs while Bailey embroidered hers. They also had BYU students demonstrating things from the medieval time period, which I have to admit, was a little strange, they were from the mediaval club. They pranced around and sang a lot. The kids enjoyed the art, but we had to deal with awkward questions from Cam about the nudity while Addie tried to avert and hide her eyes. That always makes for an interesting family outing in public. Cam and Emery were also afraid of a giant Native American statue. Emery said, "I scared." Cam was also always quick to point out any naked butts we might have missed with a giggle of course. We missed the story time and paper doll craft, but the kids had fun with the handkercheifs, treats, and playing in the water in the sculpture garden. My favorite part was getting a big bunch of free basil :) ! One of the workers at the museum went out into the sculpture garden and picked heaps of basil and then just started handing it out to everyone, it was awesome! I love fresh basil, especially when it's free! Anyway, then we drove to Sonic and got ignored at the drive-up, so we drove to the S.F. Sonic and got slushes during happy hour. It was a fun day! Happy Museum Day!
