We kicked off November with Emmie's 12th Birthday! My kids are getting old! Emmie requested Syd and Cy's sushi for her birthday...and we aim to please, so we all enjoyed sushi that night.
The highlight of November was our long awaited trip to Cabo. We were supposed to go the year before, but...Covid. But this time we made it! The week was full of hunting for sea shells, snorkeling, water aerobics, poolside bingo, Oreo Carmel blizzards from Dairly Queen, baby turtles, whale watching, and eating lots of good food (with only one casualty...sadly John got sick). We had to wear masks everywhere and had to take a covid test to get back into the US, but it all worked out and we had a great time!
We got to see Kort's family on our last 2 days there. They were coming for the week of Thanksgiving. it was fun to spend a few days with them. We went back to the snorkeling beach with them and I'm glad we did. The visibility was so much better...it was amazing! Ainsley loved snorkeling the most in the family. Ains could have spent hours floating out in the ocean looking at all the sea creatures. I'd love to go again, but I'm going to invest in some better snorkeling masks.
When we got home from Cabo it snowed the next day as I was out grocery shopping for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving was great. We ate, played games, shopped online, and enjoyed a day with family. And I appreciated that a lot of big stores legitimately shut down on Thanksgiving and opened their doors early on black Friday, instead of opening at 6:00 or so on Thanksgiving...hopefully we did learn something from Covid.
