jedi, pizza, dresses, blerg!

sadly break is coming to a close, but I did manage to explore some, eat more, binge watch 30 rock, and sleep a little more than usual. good times.

pizza, books, and monuments.

started my spring break early this week while my favorite person was back in town.
we had to keep our favorite tradition alive. d'bronx, prospero's, memorial arch. good stuff.


left our mark "smoke signals" style.

spring break adventures. part two.

can I just say, I absolutely love break.
continuing with one of our favorite spring break traditions we headed downtown for an afternoon.

once again, we ate amazing pizza bigger than our heads at d'Bronx.


left our mark "midnight in paris" style.


visited the terrific bookstore, Prospero's.



("the place squeals with potential. and so do you!")

and revisted the fun graffiti, sans bright flags.

did some browsing at the vintage shops on 39th. found this amazing, AMAZING jumpsuit.



tried on fancy hats, and I channeled my inner johnny depp a bit.



then headed up to the memorial arch. love this place




and finished it out with some boba tea in westport.


did I mention I got to shoot some film? good times.

want to see how we carried out the tradition last year? check it out here.

things that made my day: downtown edition.

last tuesday while my sister was back for spring break, we decided to revisit some of our spring break traditions from past years in the form of a downtown day. we don't get down there as much as we'd like, but we make it happen when we can.

first up was d'Bronx. we ate delicious pizza bigger than our heads.


then we left our mark. hot rod style.


next we visited prospero's and scored some fantastic old books and played on the awesome sliding ladders.


then we just walked that street, visiting the shops and checking out the graffiti and flags.


one of these shops had a real life rowdy. he was too legit to quit.


then we headed up to the memorial arch. not only is the arch itself fantastic, but there is a great view of the kc skyline from there.



after that we went down to the heart of the city and walked around.


saw the fantastic library. (brilliant design)


saw sprawling grocery stores.


and got some fantastic bubble tea.


it was a stellar day to say the least. I'm a huge fan of kc.
