Miranda's birthday - 8 years old!!

For Miranda's birthday she wanted to try out the Fun Village at the Ambience Mall. It is sort of a ChuckECheese thing (oh how I HATE ChuckECheese!) with arcade games, rides and prize tickets. For the rides you buy a pre-charged credit card thing and just put it into the ride and the amount is deducted. (Better and cleaner than tokens) It was very loud, of course. But it was pretty fun. My favorite is the Dance Dance Revolution Game - it is cheap too, so we danced several times. Isaac is the king, since he does it tons at Grandma and Grandpa Leavitt's every summer. Later we played Whack-a-Mole and we ALL whacked - you get lots of tickets that way!!














At the end the kids pooled their tickets (somewhat willingly) and let Miranda choose the prize. A tiny brown teddy bear then came home with us.
When we got home, we had very chocolatey cake and presents!






Her siblings gave her a Princess colouring set with Princess crayons, extra stickers from Alex (Princess of course), puzzle and PlayDoh and Oreos and an artbook from Mom and Dad. And of course, the blanket from Grandma Brooks that she actually got at Christmas time!
I think she had a good birthday.
