Last week we had our stay-cation, in other words, vacation at home. We started out last Sunday going to the Overland Park Arboretum for a walk in the morning, then to the City Farmer's Market where we picked up some produce and the girls went on pony rides. Then to lunch. Monday was a laundry day. Tuesday we went to the pool. Wednesday morning we got up early to go to the movies. We saw Clifford's Really Big Movie then had lunch at Cheeseburger in Paradise. We came home and made cookies. Thursday we headed to Lawrence to go to Clinton Lake with the Drake's. Again up early, packed up the car and off we went. We spent the day on the beach, wasn't quite SPI, but the girls and boy had fun. Friday, after lunch we went to Hallmark's children center, Kaleidoscope, we got to make all sorts of crafts & paint. After our session we went to Fritz's for a snack. Fritz's is a railroad themed restaurant. You order by phone at your booth and then the food is brought out by train. They have tracks overhead and your order comes in a bin. The girls really enjoyed that. Then we went to an exhibit at Crown Center, Moneyville. The girls got to create their own money. The finale was Saturday, bowling with Dad. Madison was the big winner with a 44. Of course, I didn't have the camera on me at all. I was able to snap some shots of the money though.
