Blogmeld - The Next Generation

There is only one piece of photographic evidence that the "Clan O Shannon" and "Highland Schneiders" were actually physically located in the same place on October 2, 2010.  I know.  It is hard to believe.  It's like looking at that same photo of Champy, the Lake Champlain Monster, that gets trotted out for every "Legends of Bigfoot, Lochness etc." TV show.  You want to believe it's real but it's so utterly ridiculous your mind won't let you.

But it's true!  It happened!  In the contemplative and serene surroundings of Chuck E. Cheese in Latham, NY.  It was all in honor of two year old Alexander Shannon's birthday party.  It had everything.  Blinking lights, earsplitting sounds, missing children (just for a few heartstopping moments), pizza, chocolate cake smeared onto every surface.  It was impossible to think all of the children would remain stationary long enough to click off a photo of them all so three out of four will have to do.
