Carnegie Museum of Art

On to another portion of our summer trip to Pittsburgh! We made a very brief foray in the Carnegie Museum of Art . It’s adjacent to the Natural History Museum (which is the museum the kids where interested in!).  So we only checked out the Hall of Architecture. I’m glad we took the time to do that because the 140 plaster casts of architectural masterpieces from the past were incredibly gorgeous. They made me want to travel the world and see the real things!  Speaking of traveling, Seth and I are planning an overnight getaway to Pittsburgh, sans kiddos…. so that we can tour the whole art museum and we’ll also go through the Natural History museum once more. This time I should be able to read some of the information provided and tour the museum slowly, actually learning things as I go along!

Lastly, this is a photo of the kids taken when they started dancing the Hall of Sculpture. Emma informed me that she really needed a house that looks just like this!
