richmond: chihuly

Amelia had a few days off of school last week so Ben took some time off and we spent a day down in Richmond.

Our first stop was the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts to see the Chihuly exhibit. The last time we saw his work was in Arizona, shortly after the stingray incident of '09. The desert setting for his work was really cool. This exhibit was much different, but just as dramatic with a sea theme. Amelia had learned about Chihuly in her art class so we were excited for her to see his work in person. All of the kids were mesmerized by the colorful glass sculptures. So beautiful.

We walked through a few other exhibits in the museum before the kids reached their museum limit and then headed outside for more adventures.
