Art Prize

S
So I realize that I'm NOT keeping up with the blog. Things have been so busy, Nate has been traveling every week, the boys have been busy with school and I've been busy just trying to keep up with everyone. I will try to do better!!!

This week we took the boys downtown to check out Artprize. If you aren't familiar with Artprize its basically a huge art contest in downtown GR that anyone can enter. The whole city has been talking about it and the entire downtown has been taken over by different exhibits. We went last year and the boys still remembered it. We headed down at around 6pm in the evening on Thursday and walked around for about 2 hours. I could not believe how far the boys walked. They were so interested in all the different pieces and have been talking about it ever since. I think we will try to head back down again before it ends.

If you go just be prepared to be around A LOT of people. It was packed and that was on a Thursday evening. GREAT people watching though! I'm hoping that it brings all those small businesses in downtown GR lots of $$. Nate and I really enjoy going downtown with the kids. They love being down there and checking out all the people and big buildings. And our favorite sushi restaurant is located down there which is always a bonus!!!
