If any of you moms out there have not taken your kid(s) to Thanksgiving point for 2 buck Tuesdays, you may be the only one in the whole state. Last year my mom, sister Emily, and our kids went on the last Tuesday of August. It was absolutely crazy. The line for the Dinosaur Museum wound all the way around the building. We decided to do the little petting zoo and the gardens. This year we figured if we went one of the first weeks we'd be better off. Plus, we were going to be there when it opened. The Dinosaur museum wasn't too bad in the beginning and we were seeing some great things. But by the afternoon it was so crowded! We planned it just right.
This picture is fuzzy, but In think it's pretty funny. They were supposed to be dinosaurs. Somehow, Audrey missed the memo. The one who does actually look like a dinosaur is Emily's daughter Chloe. She'll be 5 next month.
Here's our group all together and all looking at the camera--except for my girls! The one in the stroller is Emily's other daughter Gretchen. She's 1.
After the craziness at the museum, we felt like we could all use a little peace and quiet. We took a walk through the beautiful gardens.

Some of you may not know this, but Audrey is a photographer in training. Most of her pictures are of her feet, too close to identify, or action shots. But every so often she takes one that I think is pretty artistic.
I apologize for how dark this picture is, but I had to add one of Kennedy. She's almost sitting on her own!
