Science City at Union Station - Kansas City

With all the snow I was looking for something different to do with the kids indoors. Anna really wanted to go to Science City. I thought it was geared towards older kids so I was pleasantly surprised. We ended up putting our admission that day towards a membership. I recommend using the free parking at Crown Center and walking through the Link indoors to get to Union Station.

Been awhile since I posted - I have a few updates I need to get on here. Starting with this one - a really good one!

Found these when digging through the piles of paper on the kitchen island the other day. Finding these always makes me smile. (click any new view larger to read)

They must have just sent home some of the artwork/letters that had been displayed at school because some of these are from November.

From Thanksgiving:


(translation: I am thankful for family because they take care of me. I am thankful for the army because without them we wouldn't be alive. I am thankful for food because without it we'd be dead. I am also thankful for god. I thank god because he is king.)


(translation: Fall is awesome to me. Do you think it's fun? It reminds me of pumpkin pie in the oven. Yummy! I just love fall.)

If she was in charge of the world:

(translation: If I were in charge of hte world I'd...
make money
be a queen
help schools
If I were in charge of the world there'd be...
lots of birds
candy as a vegetable
lots of schools
If I were in charge of the world there wouldn't be...
beans
lava
fire
or...
mean people
If I were in charge of the world!)

Candy as a vegetable is my personal favorite.
