Sunday we met up at Chuck E. Cheese in Fairview Heights. We'd been holding off on taking Luke...the whole giant Chuck E. in a rat suit kind of scares the kid...much like Fredbird and Red Robin do!
After much reassurance that Chuck E. would not be walking around, he got down from the booth and started playing all the games. He had a really great time.
I don't think I've been to that place since it was Showbiz back in my day! My parents used to take me there all the time! I loved skee ball and if you pulled just right...the machine would give you a few extra tickets! At the end of the night and after you couldn't get your parents to buy you any more tokens, it was time to count your tickets...well not anymore. Now they have machines call "Ticket Munchers". It counts your tickets, while cutting them up and then it prints a receipt with your ticket count.
Luke fell in love with skee ball too. He was really good! Give that boy a ball and that's the end of it!
We also got to celebrate a belated birthday with Luke Morra. He turned 2 in February! Hard to believe. Here's the little guy playing one of the games for the little dudes. He was really good at it and figured out how to drop the eggs in the baskets!
Hi, my name is Nick and I'm a male model! Look at that sweet face. Nick isn't a fan of Chuck E. either, so he and Luke could commiserate!
We had such a great day with the Morra's!P.S. Little Luke had a Chuck E. sighting and he was not in the mood for the paparazzi!
