Fairytale Ball at Crystal Bridges

A couple of weekends ago we headed to the Crystal Bridges museum here in town for a Fairytale Ball.  The school district participated in the "One Book, One District" reading program and selected the book "The Sisters Grimm, Fairytale Detectives".  We really enjoyed reading the book together each night.  Both of the boys really got into it.  There are 9 books in the series, so we may have to get the next one.  Crystal Bridges hosted a Fairytale Ball in honor of the book and even had the author, Michael Buckley, there to speak.  They had all kinds of crafts and activities for the kids to do.  It was the first time we had taken the boys to the museum and they loved it.  We went and made crowns for my two little Prince Charmings and then went on an art scavenger hunt.  We finally made our way to the ballroom to hear the author speak.  It was a fun afternoon.
