Did you know that there are Spring Break Rules? Here are a few examples: eat what you want, sleep when you want, stay up as late as you want, and read lots of books. When I first started teaching, I ignored the rules and spent my spring break spring cleaning, doing yard work and other silly things like painting rooms or doing laundry. But then I decided on a few rules such as the above. I have added another: visit your teacher daughter and make her take you all over the Metroplex doing different things.
First we stopped at Grapevine Mills Mall for a little healthy lunch.
We weren't going to shop, but as we were walking out the door, there was Banana Republic and J. Crew, so Sarah tried this on but didn't like it. I thought she looked adorable.
I bought flip-flops at J. Crew for Beth, Sarah and myself. But really this is considered survival footwear in Texas so I
had to do it.
Our goal was to go to The Kimbell Art Museum in Ft. Worth to see an exhibit of early Christian art. Beth and Matt had seen it the previous weekend and gave it a good recommendation, so off we went! Sarah was such a good driver and we made good time. The exhibit was amazing. We weren't supposed to take pictures, but I didn't realize that until I snapped this one. One of the docents let me know! The art is on loan from the Vatican, Louvre, Metropolitan Museum of Art to name a few. 
We moved on to the permanent exhibit: everything from Picasso to Rubens. Pretty fascinating. (It was ok to take pictures.)
Sarah said this guy was "fierce". I think she's been watching too much Project Runway.
There were also lots of antiquities.
I see the resemblance - don't you? No jokes about antiquities, ancient, old, etc.
Later we ate what we wanted, slept late, watched TV and went for a walk. Truthfully when I got home I did some laundry. Oh well. Sarah thank you - I had so much fun with you and Tyson.
