After mass and lunch with my side of the family, the five of us drove to New Orleans to go to the Van Gogh Experience. What a cool thing to do! We walked into a few rooms with several of Van Gogh's art on the walls. There was a large room with bean bag chairs, rugs, benches, and chairs for people to sit back and relax. The entire room, 360 degrees, had changing images of all things Van Gogh. It was very impressive. We then walked into a room where you could color Van Gosh sheets and place under a scanner. Your colored picture was then projected onto the big screen. Mommy stood in line for a while for the sketch artist to draw a picture of Daddy and the three of you together. It took QUITE a while, and let's just say, nobody looked like themselves. But it was a funny memory!
The last thing we did was our favorite. We did the virtual experience with the white goggles. It took us through Van Gogh's house, outside his house in the hayfields, and around his community. This was absolutely amazing and so fun! Everywhere you looked there was something to see. You actually felt like you were there. Joseph loved it right off the bat. Caroline and Catherine tried it, wanted to stop, but then wanted to try it again after seeing Mommy and Daddy enjoy it. By the end, we all loved it!
We had a fun afternoon celebrating Daddy.
