Discoveryland

We're doing a mini-stay-cation for Spring Break this year.  Joel is taking a couple of days off and we're going to explore some places around Kansas City that we still haven't seen, because of everything being shut down for the last year.  Our first stop was Legoland Discovery World and Aquarium.  

One of the coolest parts was downtown Kansas City in Legos.
Little Lady was excited to see Emma.
Another highlight was the 4D Lego Movie.

It was a bit too crowded for my comfort, but I suppose that's par for the course when it's Spring Break.  You're required to sanitize before and after every ride, and you each get your own bin of Legos to build and explore with.  The kiddos actually loved the aquarium more.  It was a lot nicer than we were expecting.

Where's Little Lady?
The boys decided to try it, too.

The kiddos particularly liked collecting the stamps along the aquarium.  They got a bracelet at the end for turning in their card.

It was a lovely outing.  The crazy thing is that less than an hour after we got home, the sirens went off.  There was a tornado warning!  It took a little while to find Luna, but we all headed to the basement to wait it out.  We played Sparkle Kitty to take the kiddos' minds off the weather.  A tornado did touch down in our town ripping roofs off and causing a lot of tree damage.  We watched the radar closely and were very lucky that the two severe fronts of the storm ran parallel to the outside of our home.  We just got a good thunderstorm and no tree damage at all.  

The tornado warning lasted for an hour and then we came back up to a slight drizzle.  It was quite a crazy day!
