This visit wasn't much different than the last one. Substitute Michelle, Lex, and Jack for Nana and Papa and it's pretty much the same story. The pizza is lacking, the games are best suited for little kids (not necessarily a bad thing), and our cupcakes were a big hit. This last is surprising since I helped make them. (That does mean that we had a variety of sizes and shapes to deal with, but Amy's creative frosting job worked as well as putting lipstick on a pig.)

The real loser is Henry. He doesn't get to do anything at Chuck's and my guess is the girls will try to convince us he really wants to go there for his birthday. Don't worry. I'll do my best to protect Henry's right to go hiking for his birthday.
