Okay... I've got it. We went to see the Picasso exhibit. It was amazing....ly crowded! Stand in line to buy tickets, stand in line to check coats, stand in line for our allotted time to view the exhibit, stand in line to look at the paintings, stand in line to buy the magnet that says were were there. (Which, by the way, isn't of a painting we actually saw, nor does it say SAM. It is of Man of La Mancha. Oh well.)
Since we were unable to take pictures of the pieces we did see, here's a sampling of what was there.

These were mostly pieces he kept in his own studio, for his own collection, knowing one day he would put them in a museum. As he said, "Give me a museum and I will fill it." It was a great experience. I'm not sure Abby will remember much, but Caleb sure has a new perspective of the human face!

Wow!! what an awesome day!!!! I would have loved to have gone, maybe they will bring it to Utah:)
That does sound like a fun day. Nothing like looking at scribbles to make kids feel like they can be famous artists, too! :)
