Museums

January 17, 2009

Over the winter break I was able to visit two Houston museums I hadn’t been to in a long time. Allie, Sean and I went downtown for a day and ate yummy brunch at the Breakfast Klub, and visited the Menil collection. The park across the street from the museum has one of the tamest and fattest squirrels I’ve ever seen. One of the docents for the museum has peanuts you can feed to the squirrel from your hand. It was great to hang out with Allie, and here’s her hand feeding the squirrel.

Sean and I also had the chance to take our nephew Aidan to the Children’s Museum for the day, which was a lot of fun. Here are some of the things Aidan got to do!
