Starting Wednesday, Connor went Christmas shopping with me at the lake. We don't do "Black Friday"- instead we hit the early sales on Wednesday before Thanksgiving at the lake- great deals!
Quick stop by dad's office-
Lunch at Little Rizzo's- mmmmm chocolate milk!
And a stop by to see Ma and everyone at Fortuna after our full day of shopping! Connor is sitting in "Pops chair from when he was a little boy."
Thanksgiving day- lunch at Fulton- Connor playing with his cousin Elizabeth (what a doll!)-
Connor had a great Thanksgiving meal- he ate a lot- off of my plate!! We did discover that Connor does NOT like pumpkin pie!! He'll take his cool whip straight up and plain!
Telling Carter (our great-nephew) what's up-
Playing with his cousin Harrison in the secret toy room-
Again, serious discussion with Carter-
The Long Family-
On to Columbia for some swim time at Stoney Creek-
Love it!!!!
The next day, not so excited to get measured by Truman-
And on to Kansas City- another hotel (this one without a pool)- and dinner at the Cheesecake Factory- yummy!
With a view of the plaza lights-
MU v. KU-All year long Truman never comes near us at the football games. The first one that Connor doesn't go to and look who comes by to say hi!
Awesome seats- look beyond the golden girls to see the game-winning field goal!
And "Spoon" the new flag boy!
Finally the trip home- first time with headphones- Hallelujah- no more Dora for mom and dad!!
