So, the planning began and we had a wonderful overnight at and Irish Pub & Inn called County Clare in Milwaukee. We had such a wonderful time and were able to walk around the city and take in all the sites. Here are some pictures of all the things that we were able to do.
Adam driving us out of Mukwonago (I didn't mean to take it right in from of the "H1N1 shots available" sign, but it happened, so don't forget to get yours!) .
Arriving at our destination.
That night we found out that the art museum was hosting an event called "After Dark" and they had lots of fun things going on at the museum. They had food, drinks, photo booth, art students doing hands-on projects, art students there working on their pieces, a DJ, and galleries open.
The only bummer of the night was that we had to pay for parking and the machine gave us back $14 in dollar coins. We were bummed, as you can see! Kind of funny! :)
The rest of our time there, I didn't really take pictures. There was live music in the pub when we got back that night, so we went to listen to that. The guy playing was really good so that was fun.
Then the next morning the served us breakfast in the pub and then we went on to the St. Patrick's Day parade, which we saw only a little bit of because it was pretty cold. We then go to go and see the Dead Sea Scrolls at the Milwaukee Public Museum. That was an amazing experience, to be in the same room as 2000 year old pieces of paper that ancient scribes transcribed. And on them were written different things about our faith; Christianity, and about the books of the Bible. It was amazing. After that we thought we'd walk around the Historic Third Ward of Milwaukee and get some lunch before we went back home to pick up the girls.
We had such a wonderful time, thanks so much Mom for allowing us to do all that fun stuff knowing that our girls were having so much fun at Grandma's! :)
