A Celebration

While Grandpa and G.G. visited the 1 year anniversary of Dad parachuting out of his jet occured and we knew we had to celebrate. Here Dad and Grandpa work together to make a tent out of THE parachute.

Moxie and I couldnt wait to get inside and check it out!

This is a really cool hang out, I think I will take a little break.

Okay back to playing with the cars Grandma sent me.

Why play in the sun when I have this really cool fort to play in?

Dad and Moxie decided it was too cool not to join me.

This is what the scene looked like later after everyone showed up for the BBQ celebration!

The parachute tent/fort was a HUGE hit!!

Just a cute shot of my friend Scarlet and I on a wagon ride together.

Grandpa and Great Grandma"G.G" Visit!

Grandpa and GG came to visit me from Phoenix. Here I am enjoying snuggle time with Grandpa. He read me a new book he brought for me and I LOVE this book. Right now this book, another book he brought me with Trucks, Trains and Rescue Vehicles, and a Pumpkin and Apple book are my favorite books. However, I still just love books no matter which ones. I enjoy reading several times a day and especially just before bed. If Dad is here for bedtime I try and get him to read me more, more, more books!

When Grandpa and GG first arrived they showered me with gifts. Of course Grandma sent some along too. I must say it has been a little over a month since their visit (yes, Mom is way behind on the blog) and every day I still get out my train, my special box of cars, and several of my books they brought me. I also carry around the cute farm animal truck GG gave me. I like to push the button and make the music play on and on and on and on!

Train!

I got to ride with Grandpa on the tram at the Silverton.

I hope GG and Grandpa liked the fish feeding as much as I do. I can't get enough of the fish and all the animals inside the huge outdoor store there.

GG and I hung out together while we waited for the tram to take us back to the car.

Ack Another Hair Cut

Well Logan lasted much longer before bawling this time around. I think this is his 10th haircut but I have lost track. He misses Miss Suzanne and cries now at all his hair cuts. The cool car he got to sit in and the Elmo show he got to watch kept him calm for a little while.

I know I am a terrible Mom for posting the sad photos but I just think he is so cute sad and all!

An Italian Festival In Las Vegas?!

When we read there was an Italian festival coming to town we knew we had to go. Of course it was nothing like what we experienced in Italy. The food was made from vendors so we pretty much ended up getting American food. So sad. However, a good time was had by all. This was definitely a great time for Logan. We also were thrilled we went early. Military got in free which was a nice bonus and when we left the line was so long we definitely would not have survived it. I guess that is Vegas baby, it comes alive at night.

Here Dad one me a very large donkey!

I now enjoy saying "hee haw"

I am not so sure about riding this.

Or this ...

but I loved it once it got going!

Here is the perfect look for the idea that this was an Italian festival. I would just say it was a fair with a few italian T shirt and spaghetti booths.

Here I am taking my time picking the right duck to swim by. I wasn't about to just pick the first duck that swam by. I needed to feel it was just the right duck. Dad waited patiently for my pick and Mom snapped away.

There he is!

Of course I won the larger turtle not the freebie tiny one! Yahoooo I picked the best ducks. Quack quack!

I won, I won!

Old Friends Reunite

Our friends Bethany and Dominic from Italy came to visit us! We had so much fun seeing them. I am posting some random shots of the boys because these boys were hard to keep down! We didn't get any picture perfects, we needed our friend Ange!

No Mom I wasn't touching it.

Cool, you throw it in and I will scoop it out..

This is about as interactive as we get at this age. Check us out, teamwork at 1.5yrs old!

Um, I am not sure you should touch that.

See I told you not to touch it, now we have to sit down and play.

Caughtya

Since I have joined the family one of the every day items in Mom's purse is her camera. I don't know why she and Dad thought it so spectacular that I knew this was Dad's hat and how to put it on. Or, maybe Mom was just impressed I could find the hat in Dad's car. Tee hee hee. I guess you have to know Dad only wears his hat when he is at work and has to. I have only seen him wear it on a few occasions. Please don't notice my blue mustache. It is likely from Dad's very blue cotton candy.

Sharing My Chair

Here I caught them before they noticed how cute they were.

I can share when I want to...

Here I am learning to roll...

Of course I got it down quickly ...

Sadly after all this rolling fun I started screaming in the car due to a rash. I hope I am not allergic to grass and everything like Mom!

New Park In Town

Just clowning around at a new park we stumbled upon in town.

New Friends!

Mom had some good ol friends come visit and it meant new friends for me! I had a blast hanging with my new friends Myra and Maddie. I liked them immediately. Here we are at my favorite park.

Showing off my abs.

One for the photo album

Just us cool kids

I Got To Meet Clifford

Mom and I go to a reading group once a week. Last week Clifford showed up!

It was so cool to see him, I didn't want to leave.

Another Day, More Time To Play

Just horsing around at the park.

Lately Mom is beginning to think I am getting bored with our local park. I get to go almost every day and sometimes twice. Now at the park I just prefer to play with everyone elses toys.
