A special place.

If anyone recalls,  in November of 2005 I was proposed to at a Chuck E. Cheese establishment, by none-other than Chuck E. Cheese himself....

To your surprise (and mine) it was actually Kevin dressed up in the Chuck E. costume. It was the best, funniest, weirdest, and most confusing day of my life. The rest is history! Needless to say, from that day forward Chuck E. Cheese holds a special place in our hearts.

So you can imagine how thrilled I am that Colin has now reached Chuck E. Cheese-going-age, and we can share a little piece of history with him. This Sunday marked his first time there. It was a little crowded, a little crazy, (and a tad scummy) but he had fun. Hold on to your tokens and tickets, because I foresee more trips in the years to come!

Of course he had to ride the airplane first!

Just driving around with Chuck E.


 It's a classic.



Daddy hit the jackpot.


With Daddy's winnings, Colin scored a new balloon. This definitely made his day complete.

And in case you're wondering, we did see the guy donning the faded, bally, dirty (and probably smelly) Chuck E. Cheese suit. It was too chaotic for me to snap a pic. But Colin saw him from afar. And smiled.

Nicole, you liked Chuck E Cheese too when you were little.... remember?
Do they still have those mechanical singing characters? Do they still have the cheese mouse hole? The pizza was always good. Looks like everyone had a great time. Love Donna
