Where a kid can be a kid- and a grown-up needs a drink


So we've never been to Chuck E. Cheese. Until Rebecca's birthday. After much consternation, she decided that was her wish for her birthday meal. And let me tell you we did it up right. We went on a Sunday morning right after church armed with a fantastic coupon. We had the run of the place to ourselves except for a table of older people (literally the geriatric set). Add to that the Greeley Cinco de Mayo celebrations were going on and the place was ours for the taking- no one else there (thank God!)
We had a blast... as you will see....Rebecca's favorites were the rides and the movie camera that put you on the big screen. Patrick liked the dancing animal. Eric and I had skeet ball competitions and played "Deal or No Deal." We tied in skeet ball and I cleaned house in "Deal or No Deal" winning 84 tickets!!! Rebecca got to take home more than once chintzy trinket with that kind of loot!


After a much needed nap, Rebecca got to open presents and we ended the night with a picnic on the patio. What a great birthday!
