I'm not sure how many of you have ever been to Chuck E. Cheese. If you haven't I'll try to describe it as best I can. It is basically organized chaos. Ten thousand toddlers and adolescents running on nothing but grease from the pizza and caffeine from the 10 different kinds of soda. Not to mention that the air conditioner is never on and it smells like dirty gym socks, well only by the jungle gym where kids discard their shoes to go and frolic with the rest of the little terrors. Just when you think the pandemonium there couldn't get any worse.....Who comes out from behind the stage but Chuck E. Cheese himself. Just imagine a mass of little ones running towards him like people trying to escape a tornado.... Oh wait that's kinda like what the floor looks like in the game area, as if a tornado hit it. All in all it really isn't that bad of a place to go and "lets your kids be kids." To see the delight on their faces when they play "skeeball" and the ball won't go quite all the way up the ramp and it comes back to them slowly. Or when they are riding i
n a "Bob the Builder" loader ride and smiling as if they are paving the way to a magical kingdom. Tatum loved to ride all the little kid rides and smiled from ear to ear until the ride was over then with the cutest face imaginable she said "nother one daddy." Keely was not happy when she was not being held or walked around holding our hands but was laughing hysterically when she was running a hundred miles an hour and would suddenly stop to see if anyone was chasing her. Were gonna miss all the times when the smallest things bring them so much happiness. These are the moments we will only remember in pictures and our minds. We will try to keep these images locked away until the next time we brave the utter disarray that is Chuck E. Cheese.
