Friday was Bill's birthday so we ballooned up the house the night before. Since Bill works evenings. we didn't get to see him on his actual bday, so we celebrated a little on Saturday instead! We DID have a cheesecake in the fridge for him on Friday night though... (hence the missing piece when we went to sing Happy Bday the next day)
Maelie wanted to make him some breakfast so she made him a grilled cheese sandwich in our George Foreman grill that was given to us by my aunt Helene last summer. It's been the most useful appliance for us! :)
Maelie had bowling Saturday morning and ended up being the first Bantam girl to play over 600 for three games! (Game 1 : 217, Game 2: 180, Game 3: 217). She also won a hockey ticket, and a prize, AND her and another little girl will be playing at the Hi & Lo tournament as they placed the highest above average! What a Saturday!!
We went to eat out at Scores that evening for Bill's bday and then called it an early night.
On Sunday, Maelie made her daddy another grilled cheese for breakfast and she said "mom, take a picture of this one.. it is MUCH nice that yesterday's grilled cheese. Put this one on your blog." So at Maelie's request, here is the "improved" grilled cheese.
After breakfast, I took Maelie to play bowling once again. She loves practicing on Sunday mornings on her own at another bowling alley. (the one she will play at for 2 tournaments) It makes her more confident on those alleys as well.
Sunday afternoon, Maelie and I went cross country skiing! I hadn't been cross country skiing in over 20 years!! I was hoping to take a pic with my phone but it froze and died. LOL no more battery power to even take ONE pic!! We did pretty good! i only fell once, and it was a graceful fall as I was going down sideways in a steep hill! I don't do hills....!! We had a great time, and thankfully, Maelie didn't break anything on her body!!
All in all we had a very fun weekend :)

Maelie did this on Saturday night before going to bed. I guess she was watching hockey with Bill and wanted him to fill in the final score since she went to bed. I was already in bed a bit before her !
