Typical

Twas a typical family birthday party/get together.

It was Michael's big 40th and since an Alaskan cruise was not in the budget, he decided he wanted to celebrate his momentous occasion at Chuck E. Cheese.

We made our way into "The Cheese," dealt with the mob of people, all to have horrible pizza and spend way to much money on tokens that earned us 3 plastic lizards, 1 plastic frog and a cheap launcher that keeps falling apart. And by the way, who takes a new born baby to Chuck E. Cheese??

After visiting "The Cheese" we headed home for cake. Our dog was a total pain and would not stop climbing on my husband or brother in law. The baby Mastiff puppy (at 130 pounds) ran up the stairs to find the cats, oh and by the way, he does not like to climb down the stairs without a huge push from the top. We had a cake with no candles, as Adeline was nice enough to inform me of and Nana had the pissed off look because Carson could not remember Happy Birthday on his violin.

End and middle sections of the cake seemed to be of huge importance, soda's were spilled and at then end, when I thought all was quite, Nana walks back in the house because she cannot find her cell phone. A hunt in our house, her car and our yard turned up nothing, but alas the phone was ringing under the back seats of our car.

All this had been just a little too much stimulation for my ADHD husband and he disappeared into his math books.

We are birthday safe for another 2 weeks, then I am only assuming we will have a repeat of tonight, minus Chuck E. Cheese.
