On Sunday of Memorial day weekend we all went to "Celebration at the Station". This is a free patriotic concert by the Kansas City Symphony on the lawn in front of Union Station. The Liberty Memorial is directly across the street. The atmosphere is just awesome. We have gone the past couple of years and I hope this becomes a long time family tradition. We enjoyed the wonderful music along with 30-50,000 other Kansas Citians! Believe it or not, in a crowd that size we ran into several friends and even some family members. The kids were so well behaved! Jesse and Isabelle enjoyed going down and visiting the symphony "petting zoo". Jesse will be in beginning orchestra next year, so he had fun trying out the different instruments. I think the trumpet would be a good choice for him. At dark the concert continues with the largest fireworks display in Kansas City. The symphony plays with the fireworks and the effect gives you goosebumps! We had so much fun I wish you all were here with us. If any one ever comes to visit us on Memorial Day then you can be sure we will take you to The Celebration at the Station. You can see lots of pictures in our photo albums!
