Weekender

Baby it's cold outside!  And I like it A LOT!
Hello snow,  welcome back!
We have lots of exciting plans for the weekend, broken up with periods of rest and relaxation -  it's the recipe for a perfect weekend, in my humble opinion!  Friday is ultrasound day, and I can't wait to see our little bambino again!  Friday night The Hub is also exercising his current favorite way to "make" dinner by ordering us Cosmos pizza (and bread sticks with Nacho cheese dipping sauce for me!  MMMMMMM)
Also this weekend we are getting a visit from Dr. Sissy, BIL, and Vaughny the world's greatest nephew - can't wait to spend some time with them!

So what fun and frugal things can you do around town this weekend?

11/11-11/13 -  You have 4 chances to see "The Legends of Flight" in 3D at  IMAX starting Thursday at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.  All you have to do is fill in a short survey after the show. Get the scoop on this great deal here, seats are first come, first served.
