 Maddie has been wanting an xbox for years.  This birthday she gave up the big birthday party in exchange for the big gift.  She was able to have a few friends over for pizza and a movie.

 Pizza.  And the movie, Jumanji.

 The birthday girl gets escorted to the cake.

And the second birthday girl, Fiona, whose actual birthday it was, gets her song.
