Matt turned 5 this spring!
We let our kids have birthday parties ever year, of course. But most of those are just small celebrations with the family at home. On certain birthdays, they are allowed to have a big party, invite friends, and pick where they want to go.
And for their 5th birthdays, every single one of them has picked:
Drum roll please,
Chucky Cheese.
Ugghh.
I love not having to prepare or clean up my house after a party. But I can't say that I love Chucky Cheese. It's dirty, it kind of smells, and I can almost see the germs crawling around on the never-been-cleaned games.
But they love it, so, alas, we go.
Matt invited all of his preschool buddies, and every single one came! It's a small preschool, so no problem. He loved it, and everybody had a great time. Gracie got pretty good at the basketball game.
Group pictures with Chucky (the little boy in the white shirt was a little concerned about Chucky. I don't think he liked him very much!)
The crown was a nice touch. Matt didn't take it off for a very long time.
And the finale to the party was Matt having one minute in the ticket blower. He put on a helmet and goggles, stepped in, and stuffed tickets down his shirt. He thought it was hysterical. So did we.
