Whale Watching and Cookie Sales.

This weekend was Charlotte's Birthday weekend, and it also happened to be Jeri's (a very good friend of ours) Birthday Weekend, so Jeri invited Charlotte to go whale watching on Saturday morning. It is also worth mentioning that Friday (C's actual birthday) we were kidless, both Syd and Hana had gone on sleepovers.......

Here's C with the Whale Watching Crew: Jeri, C, Jim (and another friend of J&J).

They saw several whales up close, mama whales with baby whales!

We were going to go out to a fancy restaurant for dinner, but seeing how good cooks we are, we decided to stay home, and I grilled for her some monster New York Strip Steaks and eggplants, French Fries and some good beer and just had a good dinner while watching some movies (not kid movies). Sometimes it's just better to stay at home and enjoy a nice peaceful meal....

So saturday C had whale watching but she had also set up the girl scout cookie booth at Wal Mart. So, Peter and I went over with Fiona and Syd to do the sales. Cookies flew off the shelves!

Then we went over to Jeri's house for some pupu's to celebrate her Bday an her new cool deck.

Then C had to go and do another shift of cookie sales with Syd at Wal Mart. They sold all their cookies within the first hour and they had to call another girl scout to bring over her cookies for back up.

Amongst their customers: Mayor Kim! (how cool is that!)

Here is the super cookie sales team in action:

Here is Syd Sunday morning calling to all of her pre-order customers to inform them that their cookies were here and about to be delivered.

Sunday she went to the soccer field to deliver the cookies that the soccer guys (and gals) had pre-ordered and ended up selling the rest of the boxes she had...
