Saturday

On Saturday we went to The Tech museum in San Jose, where they had this awesome exhibit about Leonardo Da Vinci. I have always admired his work, but I was absolutely floored by the sheer genius and expanse of his studies. I can't even begin to list all his inventions, so I won't. But here's a picture of his flying machine.

This is a ginormous horse that he designed and came up with a way to have it created in a single casting.

Here's Livvy eating peachesAnd here's Chase

Da Vinci studied everything from the human body to pulleys and levers, whirlpools to art, how birds fly to how to make screws. Afterwards, Chase and I both looked at each other and said, "So, what the heck are you doing with your life?!" Seriously, he's amazing.
