Cheddar Cheese

I planned a special trip to take Scarlett to see Cinderella in the movie theater.  She was so excited - all the way to the ticket counter where we learned it was sold out.  Bummer!  Her little eyes were glistening as I explained that there were no more tickets left and we would have to try another day.  I felt for my little 4 year old as we walked to the car.  I called Jake (who was home with napping twirls) to vent my frustrations for not buying tickets beforehand.  He suggested that we go do something else fun.  Duh.  Why didn't I think of that?  

So I took Scarlett to Chuck E Cheese.  She's only been in Utah (and that was like 2 years ago) so she had no idea what was in store for her.  For less money than the movie would have cost she had 2 hours of pure joy!

I ordered a churro while she played on this playset.  The waitress brought me out 2 short little churros and dipping sauce.  She said that they accidentally dropped my 3rd churro so they were frying up another one for me.  I told her that 2 was fine, but she came back with another basket full of 3 hot churros!  I was sugared out.  I should have just stopped eating - but they were free churros!  How was I supposed to say no to that?

We got home and Scarlett told Jake all about her adventure at "Cheddar Cheese" haha!  I found out that Jake has never been (at least not that he can remember!)  I think we'll have to bring the whole family for FHE in the near future!
