Chuck E. Cheese's party

I admit it: this was Patience's first birthday party that included people who weren't family. That's right, I actually let her choose a location and a guest list for a party! Surprise, surprise, she chose Chuck E. Cheese's which actually turned into a pretty good thing because as the parents, you have to do absolutely nothing except show up. Decorations...done. Pizza....done. Cake...done. Entertainment...done. Clean up....DONE! Yep, I love me some Chuck E. Cheese.

Patience had a blast at her party. Here are some highlights:
