The boys are here- week 3

Last Saturday was my birthday and I did a special post for that but Grammy forgot to include these two pictures.


I found out that I was born at 7:08 in the morning from this wine bottle that has my picture on it. I got up at 5:30 so I wouldn't miss my birth moment.







This is the super soaker that Pam and Steve gave me. We played with it all week.






The circle was the safe zone.













Dev practiced tracing letters when no one was watching him.








Sunday Dillan found a whole bunch of baby caterpillars.














We ran out of cookies so we had to make more on Monday.


Dillan rigged up something with rocks in the wagon to make sparks but it didn't work at all.








Monday night Grammy agreed to sleep in the fort with Devan and me.


We get everything organized. It was time to go to bed.





We had the lantern on and discovered there were bugs flying around inside the fort. Grammy had a hard time killing one of the big ones. Finally she did but I didn't want to sleep out there anymore so we all came in the house. Grammy thought it was funny.



We found this clock in Grandpa's box of treasures in the shed. We were going to hang it in the fort but the plastic melted.





We also found these old roller skates that were my moms.


I tried them out.


Roller blading is easier.





Dillan tried too.















Devan tried too.


Grandpa said if we sit quiet and hold out our hands with birdseed that birds would land to eat the seed. They didn't.







Tuesday night we decided to try to sleep in the fort after we bug proofed it. This time Dillan wanted to sleep in it with me but wanted Grammy to sleep with us. We all get in there and get ready to turn the light off and Dillan decides he doesn't want to stay so he went into the cabin and Grammy and I slept in there all night.



Wednesday morning Grandpa took Dillan and me to the driving range to hit some golf balls. That was fun.


Thursday we went to Meteor Crater. I'll do another blog just on that trip.



Love, Logan

Logan's 9th birthday

Yesterday I was 9.


Friday we went to Showlow for me to shop for presents from Grammy and Grandpa. I bought a radio-controlled monster truck.



I also bought a Nerf machine gun that was on sale.


Dillan is hiding from me.


I wanted to have pulled pork for my birthday dinner but Grammy said that I was in charge of making it. She found a recipe that used root beer to cook the meat


I spilled alot of pork rub stuff but I got it all rubbed in.


Grandpa and I played several games of pool. I beat him.



The pork cooked for 8 hours. Then I had to pull it apart, which was kinda messy.


My birthday cake just about didn't fit in the freezer.



Grandpa and me playing pool and drinking beer. (I had root beer, mom!)


Steve and I played some pool.


My birthday dinner. Dillan ate THREE pulled pork sandwiches. Grammy thinks that's a record for him.



Me and my birthday cake.


This cake is from the Dairy Queen and is a chocolate extreme blizzard cake. It was REALLY good!



Steve and Pam gave me a super soaker. It shoots a half a gallon of water and is awesome.
I had a really good birthday. I slept until 9:00 Sunday morning.
