COSI with the Spielers

We were lucky enough to be able to meet the Spieler family in Columbus today. Marty had a football conference there and we drove the two short hours to spend some time with them at COSI. I haven't been to COSI in at least 15 years so it was nice to see all of the new features. We spent several hours at the museum and then went to Polaris Mall and had dinner at California Pizza Kitchen. It was great to see them again and let the boys play together. Wish they were closer!
