Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. We got to host thanksgiving dinner for the first time, and boy was it an adventure. Dinner for 20. I didn't think it could be done, especially with a little man scooting himself all around the house (he can kind of crawl now, did I mention that?). Right about the time we thought it would be easy, the turkey pan cracked and the juices spilled out all over the stove. However, when we look back, that really was our only set back. The rest of the night was great. The cat escaped too and we didn't get him back in the house until 1am. Oh, and the dude can pull himself up to kneeling and standing positions now.

Maybe I did get a picture with Bill...
Now that I think about it, we did get some pictures with Bill. He was really a good sport about us putting him in poses with the dude. What a nice guy.

Wedding in Lawrence
We finally got to visit Lawrence for the first time as a family. A college buddy of both of ours got married over the weekend all the old jayhawk swimmers and friends 
came out of the woodworks. It was great 
to see everybody over the weekend and the wedding was spectacular. A party for the ages. Just like back when we were 20-somethings. Oh, yea, and the dude met Bill Self while we were walking through Allen Fieldhouse and the athletic department to say hi to the new swim coach. I proceed to say something really dumb like "Hi Bill, I've got your starting point guard in 20yrs right here". I mean he must hear that all the time. What an idiot I am. I should have just said good luck against Florida and shut the hell up. For the record, he was very nice, talked with us for several minutes, replied to my stupid comment with "Well, he looks thick and sturdy enough, how about power forward?". Bill Self Rocks. So does Lawrence. Oh, yea, I had my camera with, and I forgot to get a picture with Bill. Jesus, could I have screwed this encounter up any worse? At least I didn't faint.
