When I moved to Kansas City about three years ago, I had hopes of settling down. I’ve lived in seven different states. Growing up my dad’s job had my family moving every few years. We ended up settling down in Michigan. Where I meet my now ex-husband, he was in the military so that called for moving every couple of years. When he finished his term, we left Tennessee for Missouri with the intention of making it home and buying a house. It was something I was looking forward to, I’d be able to get involved around the city, making new friends, and no more apartments. After a few months in Kansas City, I started to rethink my original plan. It went from a place that I’d call home to the place that broke me.

May flew by for me, so I didn’t get a chance to tackle any of my goals last month. My state started opening back up and the temp job I was working at for the stay at home order asked me to return to work for a few days. So then I rushed to get ready for that and to make sure everything was in order. Even though I didn’t tackle my goals for the month I did check out a state park and made a new cosplay.

My little sister came to visit me for a week for her spring break. Originally we were planning to visit Colorado and do some hiking in the mountains but since the weather wasn’t the best for hiking. We decided to hang out and explore Kansas City together. It was cold with freezing temperatures so I tried to find things for us to do that were indoors.

This past Friday my husband and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary. We spent the day together and visited three different places. We had a lot of fun and got to see more of what Kansas City has to offer. Our first stop was Succotash for breakfast before heading to the Powell Gardens in Kingsville, MO. We ended the day by checking out the First Friday event in the Crossroads District of downtown Kansas City.

Kansas City is the largest city in Missouri and is known for its jazz heritage, barbecue, and craft breweries. It has several neighborhoods that each has a variety of things to do. I moved back to the Kansas City area this past November. Due to the unusually cold winter, I hadn’t really gotten A chance to get out and explore the city. On my most recent day off from work, I decided to take a trip to the downtown Kansas City area and do some sightseeing. I visited three places near the Crossroads District of Kansas City area. While on my foot tour of the CIty I also played some Pokemon Go and really was able to explore and learn more about the city.
