November was a busy month! We started off with an adults weekend away to Lake of the Ozarks to relax and unwind. There were 3 couples total and the weekend went too fast! Cohen spent the weekend home with Julia (our wonderful weekly babysitter). He, of cours
e, had a blast and kept busy all weekend!
The Sunday we returned from the Lake of the Ozarks, my mom (Mimi) arrived for a 2 week stay to help out with Cohen while Julia had some time off to spend with her husband who was home from Iraq for a mid-tour break. A fun unexpected treat, was that my uncle also was in Lawrence for 48 hours while performing a radio play at the university. Cohen loved seeing Uncle John and sharing an ice cream!

We had so much fun while she was here. She treated Cohen to story time, pet store visits, his weekly gym classes and much, much more! The time, as usual, went way to fast and we are always waiting for the next time we will see her. Here's a picture from the park!

The end of the month was Thanksgiving spent with Mike's family! His sister, Kelcey, nicely hosted lunch with everyone. It was so fun to have a relaxing Thanksgiving with everyone!
