Today was a mother/daughter afternoon. We went to downtown Pensacola to the Museum of Art. The artist being displayed was Salvador Dali and the artwork of his being displayed were Botanical. The art was amazing to look at and every piece was a conversation for Brooke and I. We discussed what we saw in the drawings and read the card on the side with what the artist was trying to convey, it was a very calming atmosphere even though we thought that most of the art was disturbing. However, we enjoyed the works anyway. Next we went to the upstairs portion of the Museum to view the local artists in the area and were drawn in especially by one painter who's art we both absolutely loved; Larry Horn.
Afterwards we took a stroll in the city park and Brooke climbed on the cannons and we sat on a bench under a big tree for shade. Being that it is a Sunday is was very relaxing and peaceful. There were two men playing guitar over by the fountain where Brooke made a secret wish.
When we were finished we went to pick up some groceries and pick out birthday cards for Zachary, he'll be twelve tomorrow. I'm excited, wow, how the time flows by! One day they are in your arms after exiting the body of their mother and the next thing you know, they are so tall that they are at eye level with you. :-)
