Another Snoozer of a Weekend

Alright, so this is weekend 3 of low keyed weekends and we are kind of done with them.  We aren't use to having this many slow days in a row- good relaxing start to the summer I guess.



We forgot to include this picture in last week's blog- dad took this picture on his way to the mountain bike race.  It's such an iconic picture of the west- beautiful!

So on to this week.  Dad was up in Denver all week teaching a course for his work.  They had some pretty crazy weather while he was there including rain, hail, multiple tornadoes.  Kind of reminded us why we like Tucson better weather wise.  Meanwhile, mom and I were enjoying 100+ temps and a little rain ourselves.  Kind of nice.

Friday was National Donut Day and mom and I made sure we celebrated properly.  We headed to Dunkin Donuts and I got myself a toasted coconut donut while mom enjoyed a chocolate glazed.  It was all good.


After that, we headed to the Time Machine Miniature Museum.  It is a pretty cool museum full of miniatures from all over the world, some from the 1700's.  Mom really had a good time because this was something she always wanted to do when she was a kid.  Me?  I thought it was pretty cool too but not as awesome as mom did.  It was a nice way to spend the afternoon either way.




And that was pretty much the highlight of our weekend.  My stupid cast is keeping us down just a bit so we got in some swimming and some movie watching but that was about it.
I talked dad into playing some chess with me on Sunday.  I was getting pretty confident in my skills playing mom (because she kind of stinks) so I thought I would take dad down.  Not so much.  He schooled me in about 3 moves.  Mom and dad told me that is how I get better- whatever.


Hope everyone has a great week!
