Chuck E. Cheese Celebration
Uncle Brian, Grandma, and Papaw met the kids and me at Chuck E. Cheese to celebrate Gabriel's birthday. Chuck E. Cheese was crazy, but we had a fun evening.
We started out with some games and rides.
Grace was a little surprised by this ride when it started to take her up. She was saying, "Up, up, up . . . Down, down, down."
Gabriel really enjoyed riding this roller coaster.
Grace tried to catch "apples" in her bucket.
Gabriel played another game before our pizza came.
Grandma brought Gabriel a gift. It's a picture frame that plays the Happy Birthday song.
How can I get one of these kid cages at home?
This is my favorite picture of the evening. Gabriel and Uncle Brian played a racing game together. I love their sincere grins.
Chuck E. himself came out to greet the kids. He was kind enough to pose for a pic with our birthday boy.
Uncle Brian hit it big on the Wheel of Fortune game. Grace thought it was so cool to wave the tickets around.
You have to be 10% smarter than the machine, Papaw and Uncle Brian. Hehe!
Grace really liked riding the horse.
Grandma tried to have her picture taken with Gabriel. They ended up with something that looked a little crazy though. Ha!
Before we ended our evening of fun, we sang Happy Birthday to Gabriel one more time. We ate cake left over from his party, and he opened a couple more gifts. You know, he didn't get nearly enough gifts Sunday. Haha!
We love you, Gabriel! You are smart and witty. You make us laugh with your jokes, and you touch our hearts with your kindness. Happy Birthday!
