Cautiously Optimistic



Well, here we are- seven days without germs.  We aren't quite sure what to do with ourselves.
We had a pretty good week with it being Valentine's Day and all.  We had a pretty good day-  Dad made me special Valentine's pancakes for breakfast, served on Mom's award winning plate.  We had a party at school and I came home with tons of candy, which had mom really excited too.


I had my Daisy Scout meeting Thursday night and we went swimming.  It was a perfect night for it since it was snowing and sleeting all day.  Nothing better than a good swim on a freezing night.  We came home to a romantic dinner of grilled cheese.  Mom loved it because she didn't have to make it.  The only bummer of the whole day was the fact that both Mom and Dad gave up sweets for Lent, so they just lived vicariously through me.  Dad had the crazy idea of giving both sweets AND beer but mom put the kabash on that one.  That would be just no fun.

Friday night, we went out to dinner but we were home and in our jammies by 6:45 and it was good.  As if that wasn't enough, we all slept in until past 7 Saturday morning.  It was just crazy around here.
After a run for mom, a ride for dad, we headed down to the state history museum.  It is brand new and is pretty cool with lots of technology to play with.




We got to superimpose ourselves onto a yearbook from 1918 and dad ended up as best dressed and mom was class clown.....


 I was voted best farmer- it's in my blood you know



 Mom and I got to drive a Model T






We got home just in time for me to head out to our troop's Cookie Booth Sale.  We parked it in front of King Sooper's and managed to sell 77 boxes of cookies on a Saturday night.


 Our time slot was 6PM to 9PM and we started getting a little slap happy toward the end but we all had a great night.



Sunday was an amazingly lazy day- mom and I literally did not get our of our pajamas until 2 in the afternoon.  (We spent a lot of time in our jammies this weekend but it was on purpose, so that is OK).  We did finally make it out of the house to go swimming and then headed home for dinner and a movie. So all in all, not a very exciting weekend but it was still good- no germs!
