For a long time now, grandma and I have been talking about taking a trip up to the Moon Marble Company and taking a tour. It is in Bonner Springs, which is really not that far. Yesterday, the weather was gross, and so we decided to make the trip. It was a great rainy day activity! We all really enjoyed watching them make hand made glass marbles. The guy was incredibly talented, talked to the kids about all the steps, and it was really amazing. My inner nerd was completely happy! The place is a really neat vintage toy store as well. We had a great time looking at all the old toys, and amazing glass pieces. I could have stayed for a lot longer. The girls liked it, but they were not as excited as grandma and I were!
We also went out for lunch. I was willing to go just about anywhere. Chinese food? Mexican? A steak dinner? These kids always want to eat at McDonalds. Always! We really don't eat out that often, so they want what they want!
We did bring home some marbles, and the girls did do some research on marble playing rules. Something educational during the break! They had a good time learning to shoot the marbles too! Harper seemed to be a natural at it.
