Chuck E Cheese it is...

It's time to celebrate GRAFTON! Ever since GG and Pop took the kids to Chuck E Cheese this summer, Grafton has been wanting to have her birthday party there. Of course there isn't one in Oxford...the closest one is an hour away. I have been less than thrilled about the selection, but Grafton has been looking forward to this day for months! She invited 4 girls and 3 boys from her class, plus her precious friend Eliza, to make the trip to Tupelo for her birthday.  My dear friend Shelly came to help, and Amy brought her whole family (SIX kids!!!) to celebrate sweet G!  Grafton wanted to invite her whole grade, but there are only so many seats in the car!!

Let me tell you- these kids had an absolute blast! We drove everyone over, with the help of DeeDee and Mike, and started the party at 5:00. They played games, ate pizza, watched Chuck E Cheese do a show and dance, then played some more! I had to nearly drag them out of that place at 7:00!! I think they would have stayed all night. It was fun watching their excited faces and silly expressions. James may have had the most fun out of anyone- he thought it was AWESOME!

The most fun for me was watching Grafton feel special and loved. She had a wonderful time, played and played and played, and felt like the center of attention on her special day. It was definitely a successful party!
