On Saturday, Chase and Daddy went to the big park, probably to roller blade and play hockey. In the evening, Jackson and his parents came over for a Christmas visit. Nanaw came, too. Mama and Nanaw drove to Waterloo to Pizza Hut to pick up dinner: two pepperoni pizzas and cheese garlic sticks. Yummy! The boys ate downstairs, and the adults ate upstairs in the kitchen. After dinner, everyone gathered downstairs to exchange Christmas gifts. Chase gave Jackson a strike zone. Jackson gave Chase a dart board, a liar detector, a huge and soft St. Louis Blues blanket and some other toy Nanaw wasn't sure about. The boys played knee hockey for a long time, while the adults watched the boys and football. Then they had a delicious ice cream cake dessert that Joe and Jen made together. It was a wonderful visit, and everybody had a great time. On Sunday, Chase served as mass, along with his friend Hunter, whose dad is still sick. Chase had a hockey game around noon, and both Mama and Daddy went. Chase's team won, 4 to 2, and Mama and Daddy said Chase played really well and almost scored a goal. Nanaw came over to visit in the evening. Mama was fizing a chicken casserole, using a rotisserie chicken from Schnuck's. Mama gave Nanaw some hacked-up chicken to eat, and it was really good. Chase and Nanaw went into the kitchen so Chase could play hockey with Matt Murray, and Nanaw could watch. It was fun, and Nanaw brought the cicadas, Tee Tee and Lars into the kitchen so they could play, too. The cicadas came back home with Nanaw, and she promised to let them use Chase's new baseball blanket so they could stay warm.
