family visit

We had a great time with my family over the weekend. On Saturday, we traveled to Cleveland to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Special thanks to Layne who met us to take Liam to her house, allowing us to explore the museum toddler-free! The museum doesn't allow people to take photos, which is a shame because there were so many neat things there. Tons of stage costumes, drawings and letters from stars as kids, John Lennon's piano, pieces from Otis Redding's crashed plane, a car from Elvis, handwritten lyrics from Motown singers, Beatles, and more. We even got to tour Johnny Cash's bus outside the museum, which had interesting things in it, such as exotic wood he smuggled from Jamaica and a theater box plate he stole for June.

Liam and Uncle Gordon really bonded over the weekend.
Here's the shirt we bought for Liam in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame gift shop:Yep, that's about right.




We also took a sightseeing cruise on Sunday evening along Pittsburgh's three rivers. It was a really fun weekend!
