Alex's Art Show

Jessica and Elessia got notified that one of Alex's piece of art from school had been nominated for the district art show and there would be an art display and experience at the Union Station on May 15th. They didn't know much about it other than Alex was not happy that the kids got to take all of their art home, but they wouldn't let her take her picture home.

It was a beautiful evening in Ogden and turned out to be a fun night of art (although how they judge the art work is something that we couldn't figure out.)  They had a art scavenger hunt where the kids had to find different things in the paintings--like patterns or the use of warm colors.  That was fun.  They also could make book marks, water color painting, and model something out of clay. Jena and the kids loved it for the most part.

Ezri loved this cowgirl so we got a picture there.

Zander with his choice of favorite picture (for the scavenger hunt).  He thought it was amazing that a 2nd grader could draw such a good fox.
And this is what happens when you take just one photo-
the dread eye blink!

Ezri was done with art so she hung out
with grandpa.

Zander is not happy because he lost his bookmark. Darn.

And the star of the show was Alex's picture of a rainbow....She won first place in the kindergarten group and got a $30 cash prize for it.  And she could finally bring her picture home!

And because it was Jessica's birthday and the Art Show, we headed to Artic Circle for Ice Cream (ice cream- two days in a row for us).  Not quite the same as Farr's ice cream, but yummy just the same.
