John’s Incredible Pizza

Living in SoCal we are definitely spoiled with good weather.  But of course, the one day we had plans while my mom was down is the one day it rains.  Since our amusement park plans were now cancelled, Danny suggested John’s Incredible Pizza.

We got there just as the rain started to pick up and the place was PACKED.  When we headed to the front doors, there was a huge line outside…in the rain.  Thankfully Danny got there first and we forced mom to the front to order the food and then squeezed in when we could.  You could tell people were NOT happy we were cutting in line…oh well. 

As soon as we paid, we lucked out with finding a table though.  All the girls sat down while Chad and Danny got the kids their food.

They mostly have pizza but also had some pasta, potatoes and dessert – typical pizza place food.  When it was dessert time, the girls each got their own ice cream cone.

Noelle ended up eating hers bottom side up.  Eventually the ice cream just fell out.

As soon as we finished eating, we made our way over to the ride/game section.  It reminded me of Dave and Busters but more geared towards the 10-13 year old range.  There were some smaller rides that we went on first.

And then Brooklyn opted to go on a ride that shoots straight up and then down.  Kalea didn’t want to go on it and Hailey said it was “not safe”.  (Although later she went on it with Brooklyn and had her hands up in the air.  Apparently she put another little boy to shame who was close to tears.)

After that ride, the girls took Danny on a much more adventurous ride.  They swung around in a circle while Danny could also turn their car around.  I was worried about Kalea, but all the girls had a great time!

And the last ride for the day, the mini  merry go round.

I love that picture of Hailey on the pony.  Head thrown back and laughing.  And Chad was just holding his hand out to give a hi five as each girl passed him.

It was definitely a crazy place to be, but the girls had fun so we’ll call it a successful outing in the rain!
