Sunday

What we do Saturdays

Saturday mornings for us are typically pretty formulaic, but are my favorite part of the weekend. We take Olivia to ballet, see a free show at our arts center and walk over to Farmer's Market, go home and make a yummy lunch from whatever was at Farmer's Market. This week the free show was from a klezmer band, which we all loved. The first picture is of Olivia checking out the accordion pre-show and the second is her taking a turn on the theramin post-show. Olivia freaking loved that thing. She rarely passes up any opportunity to get on stage, but the attention span is pretty short. We had to haul her away from this thing, because it sounded spooky, of course.The last shot is of the oculus above the kids stage in the basement of the arts center. I have to brag a little about Madison here, because we do have a beautiful new arts center that does free kid shows three times a day on Saturday. They are really great shows too. Chad's dad will be taking Olivia to a rock show, Ryan and DJ will be taking her to the ballet, Classical Indian Dance, Brazilian drumming, you name it, we have probably seen it. We may not be the most diverse little town, but we have probably seen more free, quality cultural programs than all our friends in the big cities.

Rockin' use of Wikipedia, Liz. You know what I think of when I think theramin? Portishead. Remember them?
