Quinn and I spent the morning with Shelle and Allison at the children's museum. Quinny said the best part of the museum was the treehouse. It is an enormous play structure with all sorts of artistic elements. She loved the gigantic bathtub with wings.
Q and Allison made us some pizza and mac & cheese.
My phone doesn't take action shots, so most of the pictures turned out blurry. Their eyes look crazy in this one. Quinny and Allison were quite content with Quinny being the power for the cycle rickshaw. They went through the play car wash many times.
Getting these two girls to be still for a picture was impossible.
This is the building where the museum is located. The building itself was one of my favorite things about our outing.
Monroe Building
The three-story brick building, designed by Los Angeles architect Norman Marsh, was the grandest elementary school in town when it was built in 1913. It served thousands of elementary school students before being closed by the School District in 1972 due to declining downtown population. Later, the building was remodeled for use as a recruiting center for the Department of Defense, before closing altogether.
Now, as the home of the Children's Museum of Phoenix, this restored architectural masterwork is alive again with the sounds of laughter, learning, and play.
