Outdoor Weekend!

The weather has been absolutely awesome lately! It's almost ambient temperature all day, where you don't even feel the air, it just envelopes you!
We spent most of the week climbing at AZR, running around some of our favorite neighborhoods, and wearing the dogs & Rohan out at the dog park. We made sushi again one night, and crockpot Chana Masala another, and been enjoying salads and other "summer foods" the others. We also had some friends, Stephanie & Andrew, in town from Milwaukee to catch a couple Brewer spring training day game so we caught up with them at Bombay Spice.
Saturday we got up and headed to the RR park where they were having an "Under 6" celebration with petting zoos, trains and inflatable bounce houses. Rohan had a BLAST with the petting zoo, with the bunnies being his favorite. We have a bunny that lives by our place that he looks for every time we go outside and we feed him carrots and other veggies. One of the oddest moments was when we were watching the train go by and a lady in an electric wheelchair (with he grandkid on her lap) was racing the train. The train won, but she won coolest Grandma of the day...:) We ended Saturday with some climbing and R&R with a fire.
Sunday we met up with Sasha and headed to Lookout Mountain and did some climbing. Sasha had never been outdoors, and we haven't been for a while. Lookout has a decent landing area so Rohan could get out without too much danger (just a little)...:) It was SUCH awesome weather, and the views were nice and clear all the way to the White Tank Mountains and Estrella Mountains. We climbed in the shadow for a while before the sun came around the mountain and warmed us up before we headed out. We had a lot of fun, and maybe even a camping/climbing trip planned for next weekend!
We met Jeanette out at AZR for a bit of a workout. Rohan learned the fun of the rings, so we might have to set something like that up soon...:) At the end of the night we went for a nice long walk before crashing when we got home! We love physically exhausting weekends as a nice start to the week!
We spent almost 24 hours outdoors this weekend! We hope everyone else got a chance to alleviate Cabin Fever too!

What a fun adventure! Love the granny racing the train, so funny. C puts his hands in his pockets too sometimes, makes them look so much older!
