What a glorious last few days!!!
It started with the girls' 9th BIRTHDAY last Friday. WOW!!! We had all our traditional birthday fun...
...French toast with homemade strawberry syrup.
...lunch with the girls at school.
...goodies (ice cream cups this year) with their classmates.
...Mommy picking them up after school.
...shrimp scampi and MOLTEN LAVA PUDDING CAKE.
...and fun presents, oh, my!

Saturday, I surprised the girls with "tickets" I mocked up to the indoor climbing gym. We had an absolute blast!!!
Even Mommy got in on the climbing action! |
Sunday, we had a productive day at home, and then a productive few days at school/work. Of particular note, the girls both made 100% on their timed math tests, even after the holiday break. Baby A is only one test away from earning the title of MULTIPLICATION GRAND MASTER. She is excited!!! B is doing great, too, tracking a couple of weeks behind her. Those titles will be cause for major celebration!
On Friday, we all got a huge surprise. School was preemptively cancelled late Thursday due to impending snow. The shock was that Mommy's work closed early Friday morning, too! What a glorious family day we had together. We mostly snuggled by the fireplace, and the girls built an obligatory snow-day blanket fort. AND Mommy and Daddy got most of the holiday stuff packed away (FINALLY).
Saturday morning, the girls were up EARLY in anticipation of snow play. And PLAY in the SNOW we did!!! We had great snow for sledding, and it's wasn't unbearably cold, either.
