Chase had hockey practice around noon on Tuesday, and Mama took him. She and Daddy take turns taking Chase to his hockey and baseball practices but both of them go to his games. In the afternoon, Mama and Daddy had a viewing party for the Blues Winter Classic hockey game in Chicago's Wrigley Field against the Chicago Blackhawks. The guests at the hockey party were Nanaw, Uncle Mike, Aunt Becky, Uncle Stan, Aunt Becca, and Uncle Will-Bill. The Blues won the game 6 to 2, and everybody was very happy. Uncle Will-Bill brought Christmas presents -- a really cool Blues T-shirt for Chase, and a Blues blanket and horses lights for the WE bar. He also bought a present for Will but it hadn't arrived yet. Nanaw brought shrimp, summer sausage and Colby Jack cheese as her contribution to the party. Mama made all kinds of things, including two hot dips, rye bread pizza, meatballs, bacon-wrapped Smokies, toasted ravioli, pretzel bites and a Jell-O cake. Everything was delicious. Chase and Nanaw spent a lot of time in the living room watching the hockey game. After the game, Chase played knee hockey, and Nanaw watched him. Then Chase said he didn't feel too well and was going to his room to lie down. Nanaw was going to watch Home Alone in the living room but Mama suggested she go to Chase's room to watch it and she did. Chase fell asleep, and so Nanaw went home about 9:30 rather than staying till midnight. Mama sent Nanaw a Happy New Year text with confetti and said Chase got up to put on his pajamas but then went right back to sleep.
