The word of the day was "free"

Daddy had to work on Labor day but Grandpa and I did not:)  I had the great idea of taking the kids to the Ohr O'Keefe art museum because it was FREE!  Don't get me wrong, I want to support my local museums and such but my kid's attention spans at museums are quite short.  So "free" days work well for us.  

Thankfully Grandpa was up to my "fun" idea.  Fun if you consider telling your kids don't touch that, don't knock that over, don't run, don't pinch your sister so hard that you rip the skin off, don't get on the elevator yet, don't bang on that, no I'm not spending $15 on face painting, etc.  Soooo, our museum trip didn't last that long.  But we got to look at some cool pots that Ohr, "the mad potter" designed.  Did I mention it was free?

Then we headed over to the newishly built (2 years ago but whatev) Biloxi visitor center.  This was actually pretty cool and actually held my kids attention longer than the art museum.  Oh, and by the way, it is of course, also free.  
The above picture is very fitting of our spirited youngest.  Doesn't she look quite natural up there, shouting orders and demanding attention?  Keep an eye on that one, Addison Kate just might rule the world someday.  

Just chilling, enjoying our beautiful coast.
