Hello all , we went to Kansas City from March 22nd through March 26th during the kids Spring break . I incorporated part 1 into my dress of the week post here
We stayed at the beautiful Homewood suites by Hilton close to the Kansas speedway. It is in the area called Village west.
We found an authentic Kansas city Restaurant the first evening called Q39 in Overland Park. It did not dissapoint ! The kids went swimming in the hotel pool after returning from eating. On the morning of Sunday March 24th I found a local church to attend . Then after eating we went to Chicken n pickle in North Kansas City where we played whiffleball which is similar to tennis. We did our best but will need to take lessons! In the afternoon we went to union station
It is a beautiful old building , Look at the ceiling! Inside is science city a fun place for kids of all ages!
We didn’t participate in the life sized chess or checkers! We arrived back in the evening to Village west and went to a local restaurant. Then we took a stroll around legends outlet
It was more window shopping than shopping but it was still nice!
The pool got used again that night before bed and we were all tired and ready for sleep!
On Monday the 25th March after breakfast ( the hotel lays on a fabulous Breakfast!) we went to the money museum of the federal reserve bank of Kansas City. this was a fun visit and entry is free.
The money wall which is about 5 feet tall is $40 million dollars long I captured $20 million worth. When we were leaving we each got to take a shredded bag of money worth about $165! That is it for part 2 . I will conclude with part 3 soon, Terri xo.

Kansas reminds me of Dorothy! 🙂
What a fun family trip! You made some great family memories! Thanks for sharing your adventure in Kansas City, lovely photos and the money museum sounds interesting. Not only was it FREE to get in, but they also gave you free shredded money–WOW!! 🙂 I haven’t heard of Wiffle Ball so I looked it up and it looks similar to Baseball (the ball won’t break any windows so it’s great for playing in the backyard). 🙂 We actually had a plastic ball and bat when the kids were young. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiffle_ball

Yes it was fun Carmen!! Dorothy is featured in part 3 (stay tuned !) The money museum is worth seeing . Free and a bag of shredded money is hard to beat! A plastic ball is great for preserving the windows. Thanks for the link and visiting today , Terri xo.
