Fun family weekend!

We got to go fishing this Saturday and then headed to Delta. Logan had a blast. I was really surprised how much he liked his fishing pole. I think he told Keith 100 times how much he loved it. "Thank you Dad, thank you for my surprise fishing pole. I love it. I love spiderman fishing poles." He never really figured out how to cast it, but he sure had a good time running and splashing it in the water. He didn't catch anything, but we are going to try and go again this weekend. He has so much fun when he gets to hang out with his daddy. I am only needed for necessities, but Dad gets to play and have fun with him. So jealous, but I guess that is how it goes.

When we got to Grandpa Don's house we got to take a ride on their new rhino. While driving around the farm I noticed this old tractor that I had never seen before. Apparently it has been there forever, I just hadn't seen it. I was so excited about it I had to let Logan play on it so I could get some pictures.

Sweet Mommy Moment

This story may not seem like much, but I think it would have to be one of my favorite moments I have ever had with this little guy. I was on my computer in the kitchen. Dylan was drinking a bottle on the living room floor, and Logan was just playing trucks waiting for her to be done. I was totally zoned into an e-mail when I heard Logan singing "I love Jesus, I am trying to be like Jesus, Jesus loves me and Dyl." I look into the living room and Dylan is done with her bottle lying on her belly surrounded by lots of toys. Logan had surrounded her and was proud of himself because he had made her happy. Hence the song. I went into the living room and gave him a big hug and told him thank you for trying to be like Jesus. I explained to him that he was like Jesus because he shared and was being extra nice to his sister. I then went back into the kitchen to do my thing. He laid on the couch and started singing "I am trying to be like Jesus." (Yes, I am retarded for not realizing that the learning moment was not over.) He doesn't know all the words to the song so he nicely asked me if I would sing him the song. So I did, really slowly and as sweet as I could I started singing in the kitchen. He smiled at me over and over-so sweetly. As I was singing he was taking big happy breaths. (the kind of breath you take when you feel the spirit) I then felt overwhelmed as well. I joined him on the couch and we finished the song together. Both of us a little choked up. He then asked if we could sing another. So I started singing "I am a Child of God." He soaked in the entire song. He stared at me with the sweetest big brown eyes I have ever seen. Then one more time asked if I would sing "the Jesus song" (I am trying to be like Jesus) so we sang it again. At the end of the song it says "love one another as Jesus loves you" and as I sang that part he started tapping my heart and then his heart over and over. Then said he loves you mom, and me. After we finished the song I got one more hug and away he went-moment over. So sweet-so tender. I love him, and I know Jesus loves him.

Way too long!

Man...I don't know how people keep up with all of this blogging stuff. I think about it, and then never do anything about it. That doesn't mean I don't take pictures, so since I haven't done a post for a while I thought I would load some pictures until I do. Who knows when that will be.

This is a picture of Logan when we were getting our family pictures. He was a total pill the entire time, but shelly managed to get some good pictures anyway. I will post a couple of them.



I blew this picture up to a 24X30 for our family room. It looks awesome!


This was Logan on his first day of preschool. He loves it, and loves all the kids in his class. He looks forward to school and talks about it every day.

This is a picture I took of Dylan on my kitchen floor. She turned 6 months that day.


Okay...that is all I have time for right now...Until next time. :)
