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.

The Parkville Nature Sanctuary is a wildlife preserve and educational site developed and maintained by Parkville, MO with the help of volunteers. Parkville, MO is a historic river town located 5 miles north of downtown Kansas City. The City of Parkville is best known for its antique shops, art galleries, and historic downtown.  I only live about 10 minutes from the nature sanctuary. With the weather getting warmer and my recent purchase of the iPhone X, I’ve been wanting to get out more so I could test out the camera on my new phone. In addition to temperatures being in the 60s, and this being my last Saturday off from work for a while. I decided to check out the Parkville Nature Sanctuary and test out my new iPhone.

Day 3

The last day of Planet Comicon didn’t have much going on. Just a few panels, photo ops, and celebrity meet and greet sessions. I originally planned on wearing my Scarlet Witch cosplay but ended up changing my mind. I ended up wearing my Rocko cosplay from Rocko’s Modern Life instead.

Day 2

Saturday was my favorite day of Planet Comicon. I started the day super nervous and filled with anxiety because I was going to show Skottie Young my cosplay of one of his characters from his comic book series I Hate Fairyland. Skottie Young is an artist and writer who has done projects for Marvel and the comic book adaptations of the Oz books. He is one of my favorite comic book artist and writers and I’m a big fan of his series I Hate Fairyland.
