IHOP Excursion

Two days ago Fiona and I took the kids to the local IHOP. It was unsually crowded for dinner at 5:30pm. Fortunately one side was not being occupied and the waiter placed us on that side. We literally had the whole side of the restaurant for the duration of the dinner. And believe it or not, all three kids were actually behaving rather well. At one point there were some patrons that the waiter was going to seat on our side but it looked like they wanted to sit on the other side. I guess they thought our kids would ruin their dinner outing (I don't blame them).
