May The Force Be With You ~


 Our troop went to the Denver Art Museum today to check out the Star Wars Costume exhibit...and it was AWESOME!  They had costumes and props from all of the Star Wars movies, and the displays were incredible.
Justin decided to come along with us too...his first time at the Denver Art Museum!

 There were a lot of original sketches and storyboards, and each piece was beautiful.




I thought this costume of a female Tusken Raider was cool!
 And of course, the ever famous slave costume of Leias...wow, was that thing tiny!
 This was Jordyns favorite costume in the exhibit, and it really was quite lovely in person, but Jordyn had several favorites, and most of them were Queen Amidala outfits.


 After the Star Wars exhibit, we went to lunch at Pint's Pub.

Gwen and Christy joined us for the exhibit, which was great...and naturally they couldn't pass up the vinegar and chips at Pints Pub.


 Then we headed back to the museum to check out more art.  This exhibit was popular with the girls...



 we also checked out The Glory of Venice exhibit...which was also beautifully decorated.
 The girls got to play around in the design room and create some costumes...they really liked this part of the museum.
 Then we went over to the old building, and with very little time left, we did a quick jaunt on each floor to see as much as we could.  There was another hands on project there, which the girls enjoyed...and then it was time to head home.
 What a great time we had at the museum...I look forward to our next adventure!
