Alex had her artwork on display once again, this time at the Historic Frederic Remington Art Museum. This was once a mansion that was owned by a private family, and then a second family and finally Remington's wife lived the last three years of her life there. The mansion was eventually donated. Several of the rooms were decorated with period pieces and the rest held Remington's Artwork. The one room was set aside for the 6th grade art exhibit, where Alex's shoe was placed on display. I laughed when Alex said, "This isn't even my best work mom! I have several pieces that are better." But the teacher knew what she wanted to display and this was what she chose for the exhibit. We were so proud of her and she was thrilled to be part of a collection in such a fine Museum of Artwork.
The day progressed with traveling and antique shop hunting. We had dinner a restaurant we have never eaten at before and had the most wonderful experience. (You know when the atmosphere, cleanliness, wait staff and food are all amazing and you can't find a flaw if you tried. We have had some pretty horrific restaurant experiences as of late and this was a refreshing change.)
Ending the evening with a trip to the movies to see Red Riding Hood (poor Adam surrounded by girls, but he never complained once!) It was a wonderful day. Hoping for many more of these now that Spring is upon us. :) Much love ya'll, (((HUGS)))
