Happy Halloween!!! Chase had a day full of adventures on Halloween. Mama, Chase and Nanaw went to the zoo in the morning. It was cold and windy outside so they all bundled up. Chase wore his Minion hat but didn’t want to wear his Minion costume. At the zoo, they saw the elephants, the hyenas, the rhinoceros and lots of fishies. In the Children’s Zoo, Chase petted and brushed the goats – very cute. Inside the Children’s Zoo, Chase spent a lot of time trying to build sandcastles. He also sat down at a table with the a little girl and had a tea party with her – he always makes himself right at home. He seemed to especially like the jellyfish and kept saying "Jellyfish!" After the zoo, Chase, Mama and Nanaw went to Schnucks in Columbia, and Chase seemed to have a great time driving the blue car cart. After Chase’s nap, Nanaw came over for a "dee-wishes" chili dinner. Chase even did his "one-bite" thing of the chili. Mama was a little concerned that Chase wouldn’t want to wear his Minion costume but he let her put it on and he happily kept it on the whole evening. The Minion stocking cap Mama bought for him at Walmart was the best part of the costume. Chase was incredibly good out trick or treating. He said "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You." At first, he carried his Thomas bucket with the treats in it, but it got too heavy, and he said "Too heavy" and had Mama or Nanaw carry it. All in all, it was a super successful Halloween!
