Birthday Weekend #2

Another birthday to celebrate, another blizzard to prepare for....

At least the timing of this weekend's blizzard didn't cause any problems for Maddy's favorite event of the Girl Scout year: the cookie booth sale!



All the girls did a great job.



And Maddy did a great job as Chief Financial Officer of the cookie booth!



After Maddy's shift at the cookie booth we had enough time to squeeze in a birthday lunch at our favorite Mexican place. Audrey enjoyed wearing the sombrero very much!



After lunch, we got back into hunker mode as the snow was starting to fall by then. Even though the kids' birthday party had to be canceled, Audrey didn't want to miss out on her Elmo cake and she even could help this year.






Sunday was a lazy day, just watching the snow fall, playing a little "Don't Break the Ice"...



...before having a birthday party via FaceTime.



On Sunday night we let Maddy stay up a little while to see the SNL40 special. She got to see a lot of her favorites...Clark Grizwald, Peter Venkman, Gilda Radner, Buddy the Elf (playing the Jeopardy host.) I think we blew Maddy's mind a little bit!



Luckily Monday was a holiday anyway, because the roads were not great and the subway was not running. Another great day for snuggling in bed with some "friends" and some books.
