Best Friends...


After Florida, us girls went one direction while Jimmy went another--we headed to Raleigh to stay with Erika and Michael while he went to DC to stay with Jim and Nina. Veronica was especially excited to see Rachel, who’s been her best friend since she was five (her mother Erika is one of my closest friends and her brother Ben is great friends with Ashlynn). One afternoon, I took the girls to the North Carolina Museum of Art. It had a major expansion since our last visit in 2009 and we were very impressed with the new building, which included both of these cool contemporary pieces (the massive one on top was made out of recycled aluminum and copper wire). It was especially fun looking through the Dutch and Flemish paintings in the Northern European collection.
