Weekend Fun

Published on by amyewhitelivecomLeave a comment

We have seen the new Star Wars Rogue One movie but Don wanted to see it again so we decided to go BIG and see it on the IMAX screen at Universal City Walk.

First, lunch at Hard Rock Cafe.

Quinn had so much fun with these water spouts.  It was  like a real life video game.  He and Don got SOAKED going through it before the movie.  After the movie Quinn wanted to do it again and only got a little bit wet.  His technique was much better.

Mr. Quinn in action.

On Sunday Quinn had a birthday party so Don and I got out for a great hike.  It was our first sunny day in a while so we tried out some new trails.

Then it was time to pick up the kid and his friend from the party.  
On the way home from the party the clouds were pretty amazing so I dropped off the guys and went back out around sunset and it didn\’t disappoint.  Sunsets are always much more dramatic in the winter.

Back to our regularly scheduled blogging.   
The day after Christmas we were all a little stir crazy and needed to get out of the house.  Don took us to a trail that was mostly flat.  We\’ve been getting quite a bit of rain so you can see the brown turning green!
Quinn found a great walking stick.

And this amazing tree!

Quinn has been working on his walking still to make it a little bit smoother.  A little whittling, a little sanding, etc.

Every year since moving to SoCal we\’ve been invited to a Family New Year\’s Eve party.  We watch the ball drop in NYC at 9 pm PT and then we all go home!  So much fun.

On New Years Day we were invited to an open house at a very unique (and quite wacky) home.   This is the childhood home of a friend where the father was an avid collector of arcade games, juke boxes and wurlitzers, unique antique cars, and many other things.   These pictures barely scratch the surface.

Quinn spent most of his time in the arcade and at one point our friend walked through and said \”You can see that I had a very normal childhood\”.  

The father has passed away but our friend still takes these cars to car shows.  There are 3 or 4 not pictured.  The cars are in amazing condition and quite unique.    Yes, this is in their house!
