Life Unfolding: Top 14 Moments of the Week

This week’s been all sorts of fun. Sam and I checked out the Do Ho Suh exhibit at the downtown MOCA in San Diego yesterday and we were blown away by his work. In other news, Parker got a brand new Hot Wheels play set and we spent a fun evening at the mall where the boys got to jump around on toy cars.

My sister, Carol, stayed with us for Memorial Day weekend. Here’s her son, Riverton, huddled together with Parker and Logan. I think they’re checking out a roly poly.

I love watching the kids blow on dandelions. This is Logan in front of our house blowing with all he’s got.

One of our stops at the mall is the water fountain where the boys love to throw in pennies. Here they’re checking out where the pennies all landed.

Inside the mall’s playground, the boys climb onto these big plastic cars. If you look closely, you can see Parker’s foot.

Parker and Logan were exhausted from all the play in the mall’s playground so they had to catch their breath on a bench.

I ordered the Tattly scented tattoos from the Colossal Shop and I received a surprise Field Notes notebook in the mail along with a sweet Post-it note. Made my day.

This is a shot of the bathroom and the kitchen. He meticulously recreated different parts of his New York home using fabric. Here’s the brief synopsis: “This exhibition will transform MCASD Downtown’s Jacobs Building into a maze-like installation that replicates the artist’s apartment spaces from a single building in New York City. Created in luminous swaths of translucent fabric, the ghostly rooms and hallways are mysteriously supported by a subtle stainless steel armature.” You’ve got to see it to really appreciate it.

This is a blueprint like piece by Do Ho Suh. Depicting a plan of a room in a house, it was made with blue colored pencil.

This was Sam’s favorite piece. It showed rooms of a house from three different perspectives.

Yesterday, Parker’s big gift came in the mail. It was a the Hot Wheels Ultimate Garage Playset. A bit expensive but pretty impressive.
