This weekend my parents visited and it was lot’s of fun. Similiar to their last visit in June, they brought the sun with them. We walked miles, ate cupcakes, and I convinced my sci-fi loving pop that we just had to visit the Science Fiction Museum.

Dad signaling to the earthlings that he is friendly.

Mom and Dad.

Dad and I.

I requested that Kris use his photographic skills to capture the delicious apple tart I made in honor of my mother’s 59th birthday.

I usually feel responsible for updating my parents on the latest trends and pop culture. Naturally I dragged them upstairs for a little Dance Dance Revolution at Kris’ house. Here is Mom giving it her best.

My Dad did significantly better and actually impressed me with his manuevering ability. Instead of constantly returning to the center of the dance pad, he bounced all over the place and did very well for his first few tries.

For some reason, your mom’s face is really familiar. And I’m not being cheeky here. Did she go to a lot of the Theater Dangerously shows? Is she a librarian by chance?
She’s not a corrections officer at the King County Jail is she?
How do I know her?

Your Dad discovered one of the secrets to successful DDR! I’m impressed, it took me several tries before I figured it out…

Luke: Mom and Dad came to EVERY Best of Theater Dangerously and Best of Humphry’s Habit shows…that’s at least four major productions and there were a few in between that they showed up for. Mom was a huge fan, I’m sure she told you personally how much she loved those shows…she still brings up stuff like, “Remember how badly you guys made fun of people from Kent? Whenever I have students from Kent I think of that.”

Looks like dad has the same DDR problem as me with the whole foot overlapping the square because it’s too freakin big.
