Celebrating with Chuck E Cheese

Today was Hannah's 3rd Birthday party!

We celebrated at Chuck E Cheese.  The party included 12 children and 19 adults.

The party package included tokens, pizzas, and drinks for the kids.  A reserved table, tableware, a balloon, a blow up candle crown, a Chuck E Cheese medallion necklace, the ticket blaster experience, and a surprise visit and special appearance from Chuck E Cheese himself!

We ordered pizza and drinks for the adults and had a very chocolate Chuck E Cheese birthday cake.

Hannah really enjoyed opening her presents and having a day celebrating her!

The two most memorable moments of the day...

1.  Watching Hannah in the ticket blaster.  This pod was filled with tickets.  The lady turned the air on and it was like a tornado with the tickets flying everywhere.  Hannah asked Justin to go in there with her and it was a good thing she did.  She could not stop giggling the whole time she was in there!  She did happen to get a handfull of tickets and shoved them in her pockets :-) 

2.  Hearing 30 people that were in attendance sing Happy Birthday to her.  I started to cry during the Happy Birthday song....thinking of all of those people, there to celebrate her.
