A Very Maggoty Birthday

Lisa had her 35th birthday this week, and despite being an INSANE week (with school assignments, a P.A.C. auction to organize, a craft fair booth to manage, and me being out of town for most of the week), it ended with a great night out with friends.

We had dinner at Grub (an amazing new restaurant on Main St), followed by bowling, and then poker.  As usual, Maggot The Robot Bowler destroyed the competition in both 5 and 10 pin bowling.

The highlight of the birthday for me, though, was what the kids did.  They were SO excited for Lisa’s birthday, that for the entire week leading up to it, they wrapped up almost everything in the entire house with whatever they could find for wrapping paper - in the picture, it’s an old Rubik’s cube wrapped in a dinner napkin and held together with a hair tie.  They hid the presents all over the house and brought them all down for Lisa on the morning of her big day.  Very funny to see the kids giving her insane things like a Cribbage board (they don’t even know what it is).
