just every day
in downtown KCK
On a fine weekend in Kansas City, parts of 5 families gathered in the Plaza to meet and celebrate.
Follow the images below for a glimpse into the fun and fellowship!

| Carol met Jen and Mike when they arrived Friday afternoon. |
|
| Jen had the chance to show Ken and Pat her engagement ring! |
|
| Later, we met for Lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. |
|
| Even shy Betty allowed her picture to be taken! |
|
| We gathered and introductions were made. However, the Cheesecake Factory was too busy! |
|
| We went across the street to Figlios, where we had no delay |
|
| Much fine
food and laughter ensued From left to right: Mike, Jen, Carol, Betty, Dan, the top of Ken's head, Ann, Pat, Marty, Jessie, Becky, and Kate |

|
| Ken, Ann, Pat and Marty shared wine and stories of their children |
|
| After dinner, the young folk were feeling frisky |
|
| Siblings and siblings-in-law ganged up on each other |
|
| It was decided a walk was in order |
|
| We found a fountain |
|
| and a creek |
|
| And watched the birds fly over the buildings. |
|
| As we walked, music was heard echoing off the buildings of the Plaza |
|
| A band! Playing live jazz and blues! |
|
| Now this
is not something you see just every day in downtown KCK |
|
| After seeing the sites and jamming with the band, some shopping was in order! |
|
| We all found our favorites, from clothing to candy, from Z-scale trains to Animitronic Dinosaurs... | |
| ...but, Carol found the best of all! |
|
| Enough!
we cried, and headed home for a rest! |
|
| Later that evening, Ken and Pat took the young folks from Kansas (Mike, Jen, Carol and myself, Will) to the Herford House. |
|
| The food was excellent, and the scotch even better! |
|
Many thanks to Ken, Pat, Marty, Ann, Dan, Betty, Jessie, Becky, Kate, Seth, Carol, Mike, Jen and anyone else I've managed to forget about!
