She wanted to have her birthday party at Peter Piper Pizza, so we just decided to take her to lunch there as a family and then let them play games. Jason only had $2 cash and told them that once that was gone they were done playing games. (Bad planning on our part.) They still ended up having a lot of fun though... Carter was moving machines to get tokens people had dropped and if he couldn't reach it he would go tell the guy and he would give him another token. Leah kept finding tickets left in games and then would pull really hard and like 2 or 3 more would come out. It was pretty funny. Cheap fun. Hu?When Mila wanted to ride one of the rides I stuck a quarter in the token machine and found a coin good for 20 tokens in it. I divided them up with the kids and they each got over 100 tickets with their "free" tokens. They were able to get the cheesy prizes that they wanted and then the guy gave each of them a "BIG Disneyland like sucker" because Leah told him it was her birthday. (And cause she's cute, I'm sure.)
That night we had a spur of the moment birthday party for her at my mom's house since everyone was there swimming. Jason ran to Albertson's to get her a cake and I thought he did a really good job picking it out. He was even able to have someone there write on it... She loved it! We didn't think about the candles, so Jason had the great idea of using matches.
