We love art museums!!!( but they frighten Talon)
The Pilgrims were so dang tough. Wow, I couldn't endure the miserable things they went through like being "quissy" (sea-sick) for months, not being able to bathe or launder clothing, and then when you finally make it to the New World, having to remain on the Mayflower for an additional endurance test. Thank goodness Squanto came along eventually. Boy the choice
 between starving and eating eels.....that's a toughy.
We also love going to play's like MidSummer's Night Dream. (They are a choice napping opportunity for Chad.) Shakespeare is the BOMB! I happen to love his tragedies the best however. All of the life altering decisions, angst, moral questions....which all end up with blood shed, mayhem, and death all around. You know---think of Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth---Everyone dies and it's good ol' gory fun, macabre entertainment.
(Does that say something about my personality? Hmmmmmm.....)

That looks like fun! We're going to start reading "Shakespear for Kids" soon. I'm sad I missed you all at the funeral, the kids are getting so big! You need to take a field trip to the Houston Space Center and also the beach and Sea World to learn more about fish. :)

How cool that you were able to add some "drama" to your life....(of the Shakespearean variety.) That is a lot of culture in one weekend!
