Culture

When we were at the zoo on Friday, Preston noticed a sign for a day of fun, family, cultural events on Saturday. I had talked to my friend Kim about going to the park but they excitedly wanted to switch plans with us to do the culture day too. We first met at the Birmingham library where Logan got to make a Japanese fan. With a little help from his Mommy, he made a brown fan with a sun, cloud and 2 garage doors. He and his friend Claire Ellen had a great time fanning each other and just acting silly with their fans. We then walked to the Museum of Art where we enjoyed a performance by the youth orchestra. We had lunch at Whole Foods to support the Bell Center fundraiser. Then it was off to the Botanical Gardens for a children's sidewalk film festival. We all enjoyed the films very much. It was fun to see Logan and Claire Ellen really laughing and enjoying them too. As we were leaving the Botanical Gardens it started to rain. As we were waiting for the Daddies to get the cars Logan and Claire Ellen decided to eat the rain. We had hoped to do the zoo too, but with it raining we called it a day. It was a great fun-filled day. It was so nice to all be out as a family. We carefully selected each event making sure Nathan and Owen would not be surrounded by tons of people, to be sure to limit the amount of germs they would be around.
