Happy Memorial Day! The weather couldn't have been better and we had a wonderful visit from Jacob's mom and Rick. The highlight of the trip was the fun event we attended last night -- "Celebration at the Station" at Union Station.
There were tens of thousands of people there on blankets and lawn chairs out on the lawn of Liberty Memorial. They had a concert from the Kansas City Symphony followed by fireworks!

They recognized each of the divisions of the armed forces separately and asked anyone who'd served to rise and be recognized. Rick served in the Air Force, so we got to give him (and the others) a big round of applause. Here he is with Mitchell standing in front of a dark Liberty Memorial (you can barely see it over Rick's other shoulder).
Mitchell really enjoyed the fireworks....and cuddling with Gran and Pops.
The fireworks looked even prettier over the memorial!
Great weather, great visit, great weekend!
