Chucky Cheese Restaurants can be a great opportunity for getting much needed exercise and stretching, especially when chasing after grandkids. We had a wonderful time visiting with son Andrew and two of our grandkids while finishing last-minute business in Billings. They are sure a lot of fun to be with. The pizza wasn't too bad, either...but I must say that it still wasn't as good as Pizza Hut pan pizza with ultimate meat lovers' toppings, full of cheese and dripping meat grease...and I would really like that with a stuffed crust and extra parmesan sprinkled on top. Oh, and how about a nice semi-dark beer to wash it all down...like, maybe, Moose Drool!
oops, I was daydreaming there, for a moment.
Anyway,
 |
| Little Corbin and grandpa, stiffly making his way |
 |
| Little Andrew and grandpa, with sore knees. I really thought I was more flexible than I was. I need to get more exercise to do this again! |
 |
| Big brother showing little bro' which buttons to push for the moon and Mars |
 |
| Happy grandma and dad! |
Just so everyone knows, there was a sign on the side of the human hamster cage that indicated the adults were welcome to go inside and enjoy them, with now specific weight limit posted. I kept thinking that there would be a camera crew jump into view, once I was out, to say I had been on Candid Camera, or whatever reality show is on today that depicts adults doing silly things. Karen and Andrew actually had fun watching us work our way around the tubes, but didn't need to get inside where the air was stuffy and the tubes had these hard, brown crumbly things on the bottom.
Passing south, through Salt Lake City, we stopped for a visit with cousing Wendy and kids to witness and celebrate their recent baptism into the Christian faith at their church. We had a real nice evening before, and enjoyed great mexican take-out and swimming at the hotel, followed by a wonderful breakfast with them and Wendy's employer and wife. Then, we were off to their church for the great event:
 |
| Wendy and Nora |
 |
| Riley |
 |
| Dallon |
We followed up our visit with Wendy with Thanksgiving at Karen's parent's home. Wendy and the kids visited, as well as Ken, Sue and Troy (brother, sis-in-law and son). Of course, we had our share of triptophan recovery time. I tend to google things I don't know much about (a lot of things, it seems) and it turns out that I usually get mega-sleepy due to the quantity of food rather than the type (like turkey). Here's the link I went to:

I can't wait for my next turkey feast!
