We celebrated the twins' birthday this past week! I can't believe that they are officially teenagers now!
As has been the case all winter, there was a snow storm predicted for the same day(s) we would be celebrating with family and friends. We decided to continue with our plans for the family get together since the snow wasn't predicted to start until later that evening. It worked out well! We ate pizza, cake & ice cream and had time to sit and talk with everyone before bundling up against the weather.
As Will started to open his present from Grammy & Grandad, he quickly realized a big mistake. He had received Maddie's Lego set...and Maddie received Will's set!
More presents to open...
Maddie loves to use beach balls in the basement to practice her serving and hitting. Safe to say, it drives the rest of the family absolutely batty! Here she is, showing off a present of Emoji beach balls (because all her other beach balls keep popping)!
People ask Will, "what do you do with your Lego sets once they are built?". While he will take them apart and rebuild occasionally, this is more to his liking. He will set up battles around the house (usually on the basement floor...the whole floor!). It's pretty impressive!
The next day (their actual birthday), we headed to Comedy Sportz - a local improv joint.
Maddie & Will were both celebrated!
The team captains were told to go find someone from the audience who looked like them. Will got picked by this captain.
Will then got called on stage to be a part of the game - "Dinner at Will's" where the team had to act out what a dinner at Will's would look like. Will was only allowed to agree or disagree as the members acted out things. Very funny - lots of great laughs.
We ended our night with a stop at Whitey's to conclude our celebration! It was a very fun night filled with laughter and friends.
Happy 13th Maddie & Will. We pray that your 13th year is an amazing one, full of wonderful, fun memories for both of you.
