Bowers Museum & Jerry's Dogs

I'm so excited for this fall weather that we have had as of late. I cannot believe the end of September is fast approaching. D had his birthday Monday, and we celebrated by going to k's Back to School Night--haha. It's hard to celebrate when your birthday is on a Monday. (We actually celebrated the weekend before with my parents and sisters and grandma.)

Yesterday we took advantage of "Free Museum" day by going to Bowers Museum. The last time we went was on our wedding day, because that is where we took our wedding photos. Like our wedding day, it was overcast, and a little drizzly. However, we have actually never been inside the museum, so I wanted to visit.

There is a wide range of exhibits, from China, the Pacific Islands, early California, etc. Next we will have to visit the Kidseum next door.

Afterward we went to Jerry's to redeem our free signature dogs for our birthdays.

The manager? was very friendly and came by to see how everyone was doing. He then came back and asked if the kids would like some ice cream. (Of course, the answer was yes!) It is so nice when it feels like a business actually cares about its customers, and unexpected perks are always nice, too.
