Baby, It's Cold Outside

It's been a cold last few days here in Kansas City.
Lots of talk about ice storms and power outages.
....though nothing but ridiculously frigid weather yet.

Yesterday I didn't realize how cold it was getting, so I had a Thursday outing with the younger girls while Eden was in school.  After all, Thursday is the day I had planned to have school be outing days...but we haven't done much of that in quite some time.

We drove to Union Station to go to Science City.
Walking from the car to the station is when I realized how bitter cold it was.
Going was a bad idea.
But it was too late to go back.

Then to find out Science City was closed for maintenance.

Ugh.

Luckily we still had a good time.
We found out that there is a skywalk that goes all the way to Crowne Center (though we ended up taking the long way through the tunnel system the first time). 

We were able to go to Kalidescope.

And the Science City store was open.

As well as a really cool toy train exhibit with TONS of trains and set ups.


Today was less exciting.
The school kids were sent home early from school because of the weather.
So, the kids built forts, played Legos, made new sleeping arrangements, watched a movie, etc.

Molly created a little bedtime drawing area.

Leila turned her bed into quite the tent/fort.

And Molly, Paige, and Eden decided to sleep in their bedroom floor tonight...
And possibly the rest of the long weekend.
