Happy Birthday Maura!

We had a birthday girl on Friday! Maura turned 5 years old. She was so excited (can you tell from that first picture?) She has been counting down for months. She had quite the eventful weekend. She opened her presents, helped mom make cupcakes, played with Jada, went to school and got to wear the birthday crown, went to bed, and threw up at 1:30 am. We were supposed to go to the zoo the next morning, but the wind was blowing about 50 mph and we weren't sure she would feeling well enough so we cancelled. Maura was devastated and was feeling really good so we decided to go to Chuck E. Cheese (no matter how hard we try to avoid it, it always sucks us back in). We ate, played games, ate cupcakes, and went home. We had a good day.

I think TJ and Anthony secretly manipulated the whole birthday situation so they could play games at Chuck E Cheese. They always get the most tokens and tickets anyway :)
