We are a family of 5 that moved from California to Arizona about 8 years ago. We love it here! We love to watch movies, enjoy the great outdoors when it's not blazing hot, play sports, hike, ride bikes and spend time together! Life is awesome and we wish the same to all of you!

Museum of Art

This past weekend we took a trip to the Phoenix Art Museum. After all of these years, we had never been to see it. It was Jenna's request before her schooling starts on Thursday. For those of you who don't already know, Jenna will be going back to school. She got accepted into the Academy of Art University and will be getting her degree in Interior Architecture and Design. Lucky for her that she can do it all online cause the school is located in San Francisco, California! This last weekend was the big hurrah before her nose hits the grindstone. It was a fabulous weekend hanging out with each other with a lot of laughter and fun too! Below are a few of the pictures we got during our trip!


We discovered a fantastic artist by the name of Philip C. Curtis, who turns out was a resident artist of the Phoenix area until 2000. He had a large exhibit and we all fell in love with his work.
Conlan and Aislinn even enjoyed it!












Another one of Curtis' paintings. It is very dream like and taps into surrealism and the victorian era. Love it!











This is the restaurant at the museum, for fear of looking too touristy we decided to just get a picture of the sign. One word for this place...delicioso!









After lunch we had to get all of our energy out. Nothing better than a game of tag on the lawn!








So sweet!
