This is silly but since Jasmine got sick right after her birthday we never got to take her to one of her favorite places on earth to celebrate. What kid doesn't love Chuck E Cheese? So we finally went last Saturday and decided it was time to let her open her last few presents I had stashed.
She had such a blast and couldn't believe it was still her birthday!
We took
Shayden's last two report cards so we had tons of tokens and then a couple of the machines didn't work for us and the teen that was working gave us literally handfuls of tokens as replacement, way more than we had put in. In addition to that, I scored on one machine and won like 200 tickets on it! So we ended up with much more tickets than we ever have, and they got to pick much bigger prizes. (Which were still pretty lame of course.)
The kids had a blast.
One interesting thing. Jasmine is terrified of anyone dressed up as an animal (or it could be a clown or anything, she doesn't like characters in person). So we were at one game and suddenly out comes Chuck E. himself from a door by us and naturally comes and greets Jasmine. The look on her face was sheer terror and she jumped about 2 inches it felt like. I thought she would be
traumatized. But then later she had no problem waving at him from a distance on the stage, even telling him and his gang that she loves them. So it seems, she is content to love, but only from a distance.
After all the fun and games, we tried to go see the hot air balloon festival (they had the balloons all lit up at night) but we missed it. We still hung out and listened to a cool outdoor concert going on.
