City Museum

We went to City Museum - the kids let us take this one photo prior to going in. 

Leah drove the school bus - I think she was the only one who had a lot of fun. (It was hot!) 

But Jim was quite pleased with his caricature. I like that the artist included the K-Pop Demon Hunters on his t-shirt in the drawing!

 

Jim’s 14th Birthday

 We had a little family party for Jim for his birthday! Leah made him this card/placemat: 

He showed everyone the photos from his & Sam's trip to Lollapalooza & a video of his show at The Blue Note: 

Jim is now taller than Sam: 

And Amelie is somehow the tallest here: 

Jim wanted to go out to Red Lobster, where he tried the lobster but didn't like it very much. 

The soda & cheddar biscuits & mashed potatoes were a-okay: 

He wanted to get his ears pierced for his gift - full of confidence before:

During - she had to adjust a little bit to account for his prior scar tissue from when we did this before: 

And after: 

He & Sam are going to see AJJ in concert in Lawrence, KS tonight. (They were going to go to St Louis to see them tomorrow, but there's a middle school band thing.) Happy birthday, Jim!
