Yo Ho Pirate Logan

Yesterday Logan went to William's birthday party, which had a pirate theme. We borrowed a costume from Bern and upon putting it on him, Logan released his inner pirate so took a billion pictures to capture the moment.

Aside from riding the ride at Disneyland, this kid has no concept of pirates. He is so funny, as soon as we put on the hat, he started talking in a low voice and making scary faces. He even prayed in a pirate voice ending it with a "amen...Pirate." We were dying...
We are sure excited to go on the ride at Disneyland again. It is coming fast!

Addy and Logan Update

This is one of our favorite pictures of Addy and her crazy hair in the morning.

Here are some more pics of the family. Addysen is pulling herself up and crawling all over the place. She is so so fast we have a hard time keeping up with her. She loves to "play" with Logan especially when his cars are all lined up so perfectly. :-) No really they do play together and he is very patient with her.

That mischievous smile.......
Logan made his own peanut butter and jelly sandwich in Joy School. He was so proud of himself. It is so neat to see him growing up and learning new things. He is learning his letters and the sounds they make. I am so happy for him! Logan is a big help around the house. He clears and loads his dishes after meals, he is great at cleaning up his toys, and he is even getting dressed and putting his shoes on by himself. Logan is getting really fast riding his bike. It is crazy how fast kids can learn!!

Janet and Emily thanks for letting us borrow this sailor dress it is so cute! She was a hit at church wearing it. I love this picture of both my kiddos. (Although it wasn't the greatest smile from both of them it was the best we could do on the way out the door for church.)
What a kid.
Spencer and Logan bought me beautiful flowers the other day and we had Burger King for family night! That is my kind of FHE! Thanks guys.

SNOW DAY

Yesterday morning I woke up to the sound of somebody scraping the ice off of their windshield. I looked through the blinds and saw mounds of white powdery goodness covering everything. I could tell by looking at the street lamps that it was still coming down so I called in to see what the work situation was and to my great joy, it was a snow day! I went back to sleep but hours later, Logan and I put on our gear and headed out into the cold. Logan found my trusty ski goggles and almost got them on right:)
This year has been pretty pathetic when it comes to snow. There has only been one other storm that yielded enough snow to play in and it was so late that we felt cheated when it was time to come in to go to bed... Yesterday however, we had all of the time in the world.
Logan is the short one on the right... the one that looks like a cross between superman and little Randy Parker from 'A Christmas Story'...
The snow wasn't the best for packing but it was fun to roll around in and wrestle in... After Logan was through playing we went inside and the first thing he said was... " how bout this mom... how about we turn off the lights and watch the grinch?" It did kind of feel like Christmas time, but I was not about to get out the movies... So instead we watched Monsters Inc. and drank hot chocolate. I can't wait till it snows again.

fun in the tub

Addy and Logan were in dire need of a little scrubbing.... so we threw them in the tub and they were just so much fun we had to get out the camera...
