Today I accompanied Owen to his first birthday party held at a Chuck Cheese's. I haven't been to one since I was a kid, and had vague memories of a darkened dining room, somewhat scary characters on stage and a ball pit.
Well, Chuck, how you've changed.
It actually was pretty fun...and obviously a popular place for a birthday party. There were five going on while we were there. They've all but dispensed with the character show and Owen had fun spending the 25 tokens we got from the birthday girl's mom.
For the record, he ruled at the mallet game, but stunk at anything that involved driving. In fact, the two of us teamed up for probably the worst game of Mario Bros. racetrack in history. I ran the gas pedal (he couldn't reach) while Owen steered. At one point we were actually going around the track the wrong way. The game tried to tell us by flashing a U-turn sign above Luigi's head, but Owen ignored it...and ran into another wall. And we both laughed.
