This is Rose and cousin Matt. Rose was so generous with our kids. She let Joseph empty out her recipe box all over the floor - three times!
We went into the city on Saturday and went to the Field Museum. (I just asked Mike why it is called a "Field" museum - and he said, "I don't know. Go look it up.") So, anybody know why it is called a Field museum? It had exhibits on everything from Egypt to weather to dinosaurs. Cousin Kurt recommended the Egypt exhibit and it certainly did not disappoint Olivia. It was hard to drag her off this Egyptian bed. There is a neck rest under her that you can't see - it is acutally quite comfortable.
Cousin Kurt! That is the museum behind us - not the tall building, the Greek Parthenon-looking one.

I think it's named after Sally Field. Matt looks like a nice young man.
In 1905, the Museum's name was changed to Field Museum of Natural History to honor the Museum's first major benefactor, Marshall Field, and to better reflect its focus on the natural sciences.
Man, Pam! Do you just lurk in the shadows for moments like this?!
Boy, do i feel dumb! Do you think Marshall's Dept. Store is named after him too?
Mother, tell me you were kidding about Sally Field. I don't know about Marhall's Dept. store, but I do think his wife makes cookies that they sell in the mall.
