The “Holiday Season” is in full swing around here. We spent a wonderful Thanksgiving in Kansas City on the Plaza. James and Patrick were able to join us but alas, Emily was not there! It was a Voight fest for sure. Brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews rounded out the group. Sadly for us, Pat and Martha were “feasting” in the Florida sun. We missed them and several others. We ate, we drank, we watched football and we did that over and over. Thanksgiving night was spent at the 85th Annual Plaza Lighting Ceremony. It did not disappoint.

On Friday we did a little bit of shopping and headed to round 2 or 3 of Voight Family food fest. Saturday morning found us at a breakfast buffet doing what we seem to do best! When we did leave the table, a trip to the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art to see the Plains Indian exhibit. It was packed but a wonderful show. Here are the pics:

The exhibit was large and these pictures do not do it justice. We also went through part of the first floor permanent exhibit. These pictures below are for my daughter:
And we also got a shot of the lawn that was peppered with TIPIS!

We managed another meal at the River Market that was fabulous.
