Matt turned 42 years old - in Slovakia. He was there for 9 days finishing up his last week of training for his Lean Master certification. (He spent one week in each location: Arizona, China, Minnesota, and Slovakia.) We celebrated when he got back.
Lilly turned 6 years old at the end of the month. Her birthday was the day after Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and she wanted to go 'shoe shopping'. Matt took her out and they purchased some silver, fluffy, cheetah boots. They are awesome!
Matt took a few days off of work and went with us to a few 'field trips': Phoenix Symphony; AZ Science Center; and We Make History. We had lots of fun at each of these and enjoyed sharing these experiences with him. We even got to meet General George Washington and see a re-enactment of the Revolutionary War.
Lilly started riding her bike without training wheels. Both kids became interested in roller-blading.
