Monday, August 8
This is what used to be Cousins’ Week at our house – but it seems that everyone has grown up, gotten married, or have jobs, so we are down to the youngest three grandchildren and are now having Brothers’ Week. 🙂
Chuck E Cheese’s was their choice for Monday.
While they used tokens and gathered tickets, I drank coffee and started reading a new book.
I love autobiographies and just heard about Shoe Dog – a memoir by the creator of Nike – and downloaded it on my Nook.
I finished the first two chapters.
Jared and Ian loved hitting the jackpot with this machine.
This made the general manager smile. He teased them by saying – when they get more than 150 tickets they have to share half of them with the GM. 🙂
Their loot!
After this we went to Game Stop and bought two used Xbox games. Then we went to A.C. Moore to choose a craft for the week. After that we went through the drive-in at McDonalds. They wanted to get home in a hurry to play their new games, so didn’t want to go inside. 🙂
So this is what it looked like at our house for the next few hours.
That was a fun day.
Looks like fun! Your day made me smile!
It made me smile too.
I think I would like hitting the jackpot on that machine, and then wonder what to do with all the tickets — the GM’s idea was a good one!
They had fun with the GM. I was impressed with his management of this business.
