Chuck E Cheese MADNESS!

A week ago, the twins school doomed me. They sent home a flier and told the children ALL about it. They were having a fundraiser for the school at Chuck E Cheese and the children were "encouraged" to bring the family and come. Christopher made it his mission not to let me forget that Thursday was the day to go to Chuck E Cheese. He asked me every day when Thursday was. He announced that Thursday was Chuck E Cheese day. And I dreaded it. I knew Jim would be gone and the thought of taking the twins to Chuck E Cheese alone was just not appealing. But after seeing that Polly was taking Jamie, I caved. She offered to help me out with the twins and I knew they would love to see Jamie along with their other friends. So, off to Chuck E Cheese we went. (I still say I need my head examined for that decision!) The twins were so happy though! When we got there, it was not too bad. We ordered pizza. The kids ran off to spend tokens. The pizza arrived and we sat down to eat it. At some point, half the world showed up at Chuck E Cheese. (Okay, maybe an exaggeration, but it sure did FEEL like it was half the world in there!) Chaos ensued. I must confess, I dumped the twins tokens in my pocket and told them they spent them all. (Bad mommy!) But, we survived! We got home and it was bedtime. The good news is the twins passed out! I think they were definately tired out! It was worth taking them for the smiles and fun they had, but next time it is dad's turn!!! Enjoy the pictures!
