Our Five Ring Circus: Day at the Museum

Day at the Museum

On Monday, I gave up on my to-do list, and we headed into Pittsburgh with my dear friend, Amber, and her kids.

We spent the afternoon at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History.  My kids went there with Amber earlier in the summer, but this time, Lily and I joined them.  The last time I had been there was about 10 years ago!

We had a lot of fun, and shared a lot of laughs!

We made it through the museum in a few hours.  It was so much fun going with some friends that we love very much!

After we left, Amber treated us to her favorite homemade ice cream at Dave & Andy's, in Oakland.  I had never had it before, but it was delicious!!!

Mondays are usually really long for me, because Grant is gone all day, so this one was a nice change!  We had a great time!

  4. Looks like fun, especially the ice cream!

    Those face cutouts with the jars cracked me up. At first I was trying to figure out what they were.

  11. I would love to go there! The kids love museums of any kinds. It would took them weeks before they would get over the trip. Love the ice cream pictures.
