History Museum

Yesterday we went to the History Center in Atlanta to see the Jim Hens0n Exhibit. We even ran into our friends the Bramletts while we were there! We thought they were going to show lots of puppets from Ses@me Street and The M uppets but there were only a small selection of those on display. Most were drawings and writings that Mr. Hens0n did . . . which is great . . . but not for a 21 month old . . . we need big huge puppet displays people! The end was the best where they had paper and colored pencils for her to draw with and some hand puppets she could play with.

The rest of the museum was really nice. They have tons of stuff to see and you could really spend all day there. We chose to see the Olympic museum and the Civil War museum before heading home. During these exhibits Emily enjoyed looking thru her new Ses@me Street book that we purchased and eating her goldfish.

Emily is very into hats now so she wore this one to the museum:
