Where a Kid Can Be a Kid!

Yep, we broke down and took the boys to Chuck E. Cheese for the first time a couple weeks ago.  Honestly the thought had never crossed my mind until we passed the place on the interstate and Austin said he wanted to go there.  In actuality he though it was a Monkey Joes, but we decided to check it out anyway.

First of all, I had no idea this place was so cheap.  Every game was 1 token and we got about 50 tokens for only $10 which lasted us for almost 2 hours.  There was a toddler room for Owen to play in and tons of rides and games for the boys to enjoy.  We also discovered Austin's new love for air hockey...and he's actually pretty good!  Owen was in heaven because there were gobs and gobs of buttons to "pish" and he became infatuated with the mouse ride and this duck game where you try to knock the ducks in the water.

I don't know why I had such a negative view of Chuck E. Cheese in my head, but that's been wiped clean as of now.  It's definitely a cheap and entertaining way to spend a cold and rainy afternoon!  Maybe next time we'll try the pizza.  :)
