Labor Day Weekend

Ahhh... It turned out to be such a nice weekend. Daddy went to California to visit with Great Grandpa and play poker, and Sean and I held down the fort and hung out at the house. I went for a great 33 mile hill training bike ride on Saturday morning, which nearly put me out of commission for the remainder of the day. Fortunately, Sean was willing to play along and have a "movie" day. Sean also decided that since Daddy wasn't home, that it was ok to sneak quietly into Mommy's bed in the middle of the night (actually i was probably only 2 hours after going to bed, but I was so tired after the day of riding that it felt like the middle of the night) and snuggle with Mommy for the rest of the night. He woke me up, by tickling my face with his fingers, and then poking me in the eye.... and said, "Mommy!.... Mommy! I wuv you!... I'm gonna sleep in here, since Daddy's gone, don't worry, it's ok". ha ha hah... I was so tired, I couldn't argue... Not that I would with that kind of reason.

Sunday spent some time playing and then went over to play with Nate, Robyn and Joe. And then Monday, we cleaned the house and got ready for Daddy to come home.

Daddy's Sunday, did not go quite so simple. He was driving back to AZ from CA... Great Grandpa Bill showed up at Steve's hotel room door with a woman and decided that it would be nice for Steve to have a stranger drive with him back to AZ.... so he didn't fall asleep on the drive. She needed to go to Scottsdale, and Steve was going in the vicinity of Scottsdale.... Lucky for Steve, she was a lovely woman named Mary, probably in her 60's. She has been coming out to the Inn for many years. Steve said ended up making the trip home seem a bit quicker than normal. (As you might imagine, this was not is initial reaction... )

Everyone is home safe and sound now. And it's back to regular working life. It was a fun weekend, and it ended with one fun story that will be told for a lifetime. :)
