Life on the Plaza

So, you might be wondering, "Why Kansas City?" I know, I know. Of all the places we could choose from. Our thoughts were that we would be closer to friends and family for a while, especially for the holidays. We lived in a very cool area, called the Plaza. It is full of neat restaurants and shops. One of Eli's favorite parts of living in KC was our close proximity to the Chiefs Stadium! I admit the tailgaiting is quite fun. However, the losing part sucked!! I've been to four games now and have yet to see them win.










Since we were there at Christmas time, we got to see a Plaza tradition. On Thanksgiving eve, the streets of the Plaza fill up, and the city ceremoniously lights up all the shop lights at once. Then the bars fill up.....which was of course my favorite part of the ceremony!!
