Nickel-Cade Mania

Today Mason had no school so we went out for a family day. So after our slow delay of starting our day we headed to the Nickel-Cade.

Mike and Mason headed straight for the Simpsons game. They really got into the it. I'm not sure what was Lily was doing....maybe stealing some gamer tricks.

Hailey wanted to ride some the machine rides they had there. Here Hailey is in a yellow plane. She loves planes. Every time she sees one she tells us "I want to go in the airplane and fly". It never fails. But this time she wanted her baby sister to fly with her but obviously Lily is not much of a flyer. Then Hailey and Angie wanted to try out some pin-ball machines. She tried the Simpson's pin ball game. What can I say our family really likes Simpson's. She really didn't get into it. But she wanted a picture of her standing by it anyways. When it was Angie and Lily's turn- they really got into the Simpson's pin ball. I think she played there for about 10 minutes. Even when Lily started to get bored and cried a little she handed Daddy the baby. What can I say--Angie loves pin ball!!!

But all the while Mason stayed at the first game. Ater convincing Mason to try other games Mike and Mason raced in the Tropical Auto Race 500. I'm not sure who would of really won since half way thru it Mason got bored and left his game. But Mike was happy he won. A wins a win!

But then Mason and Hailey went to play the Jurassic Park Dino game. (of course...) Hailey got bored with this game really fast and wanted to go win some tickets to get a prize but Mason was hooked.

Hailey couldn't get the balls to go in during her game of Skee-Ball so she took control of the situation and ensured that she would win some tickets. After Mason left the dino game they played a water shotting race game. Mike helped Hailey out a little. But at the end of the game the score was Hailey 88 Mason 59.

As we were leaving we redeemed our tickets and after all her hard work and cheating Hailey won the most tickets out of all of us. 158 tickets! So we let her pick out whatever she wanted from the prize counter and our little sweet girl picked out a candy rope. She was so excited. Mason was alittle sad he only won like 30-something tickets I think. So he got himself a little pocket sized dinosaur. Mike and Angie redeemed their tickets for tootsie rolls. Yum!!!
