2 weeks ago, Jon and I went to the Fresno Art Museum for Fresno's bi-monthly Art Hop. We really like these nights because the art museum is free (along with every art museum in Fresno). We used to take advantage of the Met, but that closed (sniff sniff). We weren't really sure it was open because there were hardly any cars in the parking lot, but since the doors opened, we were sure they were. We had the entire museum to ourselves (well, by the time we left there may have been 2 other people). They have a really neat exhibit of paintings regarding Genesis 1. It was really neat to see it put to abstract art. We also got to see some sculptures made with random junk and a room full of Ansel Adams. Afterwards, Ethan enjoyed a chance to run around. He loved sitting in the sculpture in the front of the museum. We had a lot of fun! Can't wait until next time.

Family Time
This has been a great week! We kept very busy and got to have some great family time both with just Jon, Ethan, and I and also a nice picnic with Jon's family. I love capturing these moments. . . they are just so nice!
Thursday night, we headed to the Met so Ethan could have see Bob the Builder before it leaves Fresno. The first Thursday night of every month it is free to get in, because of Art Hop, so we took advantage of this great opportunity! Ethan had so much fun! He wanted to see everything and it was hard to keep him in one place. We decided he really isn't so much a builder as he is a destroyer! He really would rather knock things down than build them up! Jon had a blast playing with the ball exhibit. I think the first Thursday of the Month is now our Met Night. . . A new family tradition! We had so much fun! In fact, Ethan came home so very tired, but he couldn't fall asleep. He just sat in his bed with his Bob the Builder book flipping the pages back and forth. I finally had to take him to bed with me to lay down and get him to relax. He had so much fun!
Saturday we met Jon's family at the park by Fresno State for a picnic lunch to celebrate Rich's birthday. We had fun watching the boys play some football and watching Ethan and Logan play in the grass. It was a lot of fun! Happy Birthday Rich!
