Mama took the day off from work to have adventures with Chase and Nanaw. Chase wore his new skull hat Mama got him for his birthday and looked very cute – he even kept it on, which is unusual for him. First they went to Waterloo Walmart to see if they had the artificial Christmas tree Mama wanted to buy and they did! It was an after-Christmas miracle. And Mama got it for half price -–which made her very happy. Then they went Telegraph Road Walmart to order the cake for Chase’s birthday party on Saturday. Mama ordered a half chocolate, half white sheet cake with blue lettering and blue trim. The next stop was South County Mall to get a birthday gift card for Aunt Betty. Then they went to White Castle to get lunch. Nanaw had her first chicken rings and thought they were delicious. In the evening, Nanaw put the Elmo Junction train together for Chase so he could play with it on Friday.
