Merry Christmas! Wednesday, December 25, 2019

Mama said Chase waited until 6:45 Christmas morning to get up and open his Christmas presents. Mama sent Nanaw a picture of Chase in his Christmas Snoopy jammies in front of a huge stack of Christmas presents. Chase told Nanaw a couple of days ago that he would wear his old man Snoopy jammies on Christmas Eve, and he did! Chase, Daddy and Grandma Pat went to church, and Mama and Nanaw went shopping at Walgreen's, their usual Christmas tradition. In the afternoon, after she got Tom Turkey in the oven, Nanaw went over to Chase's house to see his Christmas toys. In the evening, the family came over for Christmas dinner and presents. There were 14 for dinner, two less than Thanksgiving. Chase got lots of wonderful presents. He got bobbers and other fishing goodies to put in his tackle box. He got lots of orange outdoor field hockey balls, and a Bass Pro Shop gift card to buy more fishing tackle. From Nanaw, Chase got a big box of Legos that will stay at Nanaw's house for him to play with there. He also got a Fortnite Battle Bus, a Hot Wheels track, a casting reel for roasting marshmallows, and a crayon melter for making crayon figures. Nanaw got lots of wonderful presents, too. She got a beautiful lantern with a batter-operated candle and four candles from the grandkids. She got a candle, a mother-daughter ornament, an Echo Flex, a back-up CD Walkman, and the annual cat a day calendar from E.
