Summer Exploration in KC

The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art is a famous site in Kansas City.  The last time Tom and I took a stroll around the museum was before Everett was born.  This morning we wanted to hit up the Apple Store to inquire about purchasing an iPad so we headed to the Plaza, which is next to the museum.   After getting a tasty coffee beverage, strolling around the Plaza, and checking out the Apple Store we wanted to give E some time to play around.  We knew just the place...
There is a lot of interesting stuff inside the museum, but what is perfect for an Everett aged person are all the cool sculptures outside. 

 Everett was actually more interested in playing in the puddles of water around the giant shuttlecock than anything else (see below). 
Right after we took these pictures Everett started to get closer to the shuttlecock and then a giant beeping sound triggered and we were told to "Keep our hands off of the sculptures."  We decided it was probably time to move on to a nearby park. 

 As you can see, the boys enjoyed it.  Everett LOVES slides! It is so hard to get him to leave because he just wants to ride the slide "one more" time. 
Kansas City is a pretty cool city when you have the chance to explore it.  Last summer was CRAZY.  We were buying a house, cars, phones, etc...This summer is moving at a slower, more enjoyable pace so we're trying to live up what KC has to offer.
