Mama and Nanaw went to the birthday party in Eureka for Max and Elizabeth on Saturday afternoon but Nanaw was disappointed that Chase didn't go. He had had a 7:15 a.m. hockey game Saturday morning, and he was really tired. His team lost 8 to 2. Mama worked in the penalty box, and the first photo shows Chase in the penalty box with Mama. He got a penalty for body-slamming another player, which he said he didn't do. The referee wasn't sure about it but gave Chase the penalty anyway. Mama and Nanaw had a good time at the party. Max and Elizabeth are really cute. Max is wild and funny. He tore into the presents no matter what his Grandma Judy said. Elizabeth was a little quieter and kept her presents organized. Right away, she started playing with the Barbie spa set Mama and Nanaw got for her. There was a delicious taco bar, which Mama and Nanaw loved. They also loved the CostCo chocolate cake with divine chocolate frosting. At Max's request, there was also a cookie cake. Judy gave Mama, Aunt Karen and Nanaw a tour of her house. It's really cool, especially the huge master bedroom with an office area. In the evening, Mama, Daddy and Chase went to Washy's for dinner, and Mama sent Nanaw a picture of Chase eating fried cheese bites,
