Chase had his biggest adventure of all today -- his first birthday party. Mama invited almost 70 people and booked the party at the clubhouse in Nanaw's subdivision. Chase waited at home while Mama and Nanaw picked up the cake and ice cream and set up for the party. Nanaw put balloons up to help people find the party -- the wind blew some away so she put up more. About 45 people came to the party, including friends of Mama and Daddy and family on Mama's side and Daddy's side. The party went really well – Chase had an amazingly great time – smiling and walking around. He even stayed nearby while Will helped him open his presents. After the party, two of the people who came back to Chase's house for an after-party were 12-year-old Phoebe and 6-year-old Will. Phoebe and Will had lots of fun putting together and then playing with some of the presents Chase received at his party.
