Bonus

On Saturday, December 27th, we were invited to celebrate Lucas' birthday with him at Chuck E. Cheese's. Alexis & Ella both love Lucas (and we love his parents!), so we were excited to attend. I'm totally sold on having kid's parties at this place. It was so fun (and virtually no planning or clean-up on the parent end).

Matt & I always have so much fun at Chuck E Cheese! Ski-ball is probably our favorite activity. Here Ella is assisting Dad in racking up the points.

He ended up scoring so many points (um, 41,000) that he earned an extra 75 tickets! (Typically people earn from 5-10 tickets for playing this game). It all happened so suddenly- he's just rolling his balls into the point holes and next thing we know bells are ringing and lights are flashing and Chuck E Cheese is singing something like "You are a rockin' bowler!" and tickets are just pouring out of the machine. It took us a minute to realize that it was all because of Matt's mad skillz!
