A Day at the MFAH

This afternoon, a radio host announced that today was the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Rita. Thinking about that evacuation and the aftermath, I was reminded of exactly how much our family has been through in the seven relatively short years we've been in Texas. A lifetime worth of "hurricanes". Thank God for ordinary time.
Today was also homeschool day at the Museum of Fine Arts. So, we made the trek downtown accompanied by both Daddy and Grandpa Doyle. There was lots of fun to be had including sculpting and sketching and a walk through the galleries. After that, Madeleine and I headed to Spanish class, following the directions of the GPS. Not easy. Not fun. Will never do again. But--we made it to class--the best class so far according to Madeleine. As for me, I am ready for some R & R pool side this weekend. All of this mommy-ing and teaching can really wear a girl out!

Perfect for the Christmas tree

Chris made me a very cool pencil holder




Grace gave me a lesson in bear-drawing.
This is our cooperative effort.

As always, take good care and ta-ta for now!
