Each year for my birthday we try to give ourselves a little culture.  The Nelson Atkins museum of art is the best way for our family to do that.  Here are a few photos from our day..

The Man, #3, #3.5 and me.

We love this painting.. I think only because we like to imitate it.

#2, #4 #5 and #6

This is their “meditation” pose.

Proof #1 was with us.. she doesn’t like to be in the pictures. :\

This is #3.5 and #6’s best impression of a totem pole rug

Uh…. Who knows. what they are doing.

This Kid..

For my birthday we go to the Nelson Atkins Art Gallery every year.  I love to see how each kid discovers something new they love about the Nelson.  Along the way I try to take a few pictures to remind us of our time.  I realized there seems to be an issue getting a good group photo.

Have you ever wondered how many pictures a parent has to take to get the right one?

First picture.  #6 thinks he can be cute and lay to the side.  #1 is fixing her hair, #2 is smiling weird, #3.5 is telling #4 and #5 to do something.

Second Picture: #5 isn’t smiling his hair is messed up and #4 and #6 are smiling strangely.

Third Picture: Geez!  It seems the youngest 3 still can’t get it together.

Fourth Picture:  Well.. now the front row is starting to cave, and #6 is back to thinking is special.

Fifth Picture: #5 and #6 are messing this one up

Sixth Picture:  I guess 6 out of 7 isn’t bad.

Seventh Picture: As #6 would say “perfect!”

Who wants to play badminton? or Honey, I shrunk the kids!
