Birthday, Winterfest, and Superbowl weekend

On Saturday Hadley was invited to a spa birthday party for a girl (Alyssa) from her school.  The party was at her house and their were stations for hair, make up, manicures, pedicures, massage and more.  She had a fabulous time!  

Then today we headed out as a family to Ajax's Winterfest.  While it was minus 4 Celsius it appeared to be like spring outside.  No snow anywhere except where it was brought in.  
The kids did have fun on the pile of snow in snowshoes despite the warm weather.  They also quite enjoyed the bouncy castles, the horse drawn wagon ride, the ice sculptures, and crafts.  All while dancing to the music in the background as the lumberjacks hacked away at some wood in the background.  

Then it was home to enjoy crazy Superbowl food.  We watched as the Baltimore Ravens beat the San Francisco 49ers.  Hadley was right.  The rest of us chose the 49ers.  
There was a blackout (after the halftime show by Beyonce) that seemed to flip the switch for the 49ers but it just wasn't enough.  A final score of 34 to 31.  
The sibling rivalry between the coaching Harbaughs went to John who after the game told his brother that he loved them.  And what could Jim say to his brother, just a simple congratulations.  

It was a full weekend but a good weekend.
