Roast Beast

Christmas Eve was a lot of fun we went to Grandma Denise's house and she fed us homemade roast beef. Castle was having a hard time not getting everything he wanted. He did one of his best, I'm sticking my lip out pretending not to look at you but making sure you see that I am so very very very very sad. He is soo cute.

We ate until we had to unbutton our pants. Dinner was delicious!! I can think of no better place to be on Christmas Eve. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa.

Santa Again, They Must Have Been Good This Year

Castle's day care had a surprise visitor. Santa, came to talk to the boys and girls about their Christmas wishes. He even had a little gift for Logan. Castle was a new kid this time, he got on Santa's lap and would not stop talking he was using his hands to make sure he was getting his point across. It was fun to have the boys so excited, no cast for Castle and both of them old enough to enjoy it.

Logan's Birthday Weekend

Colton, Lanissa and Sena
Logan turned six this year. It seemed as though his birthday lasted for a week. It started a week earlier at Grandma Shar's house and just kept on going. "Steve", Castle, Logan and I had a small family get together on Friday. Saturday was the kids celebration at Jungle Jim's. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Logan ran, jumped and played until his face was purple.
This should have been a themed birthday, Logan's Star Wars collection exploded. He has some very generous friends.
On Sunday we had Papa, Pepi, Alex, Jack, Uncle Billy, Aunt Amber, Aunt Suzie, Aunt Sarah and Uncle Jake over for dinner and brownies, cuz as you know Logan does not eat cake. Logan thought it would be fun to act like a waiter. He spent 30 minutes deciding what outfit to wear for the evening. He had a very particular look he was going for. After careful deliberation he dressed in mostly black with a tie. He very carefully wrote three menus for the evening, listing the food and beverage choices for everyone. What a thoughtful host.
All in all I think Logan had a memorable birthday weekend. He is very lucky to have such wonderful people who love him. Thank you all.

Grandma Shar's Birthday

Grandma and Logan have birthdays that are very close. We took a trip to visit Grandma and deliver her gifts. Grandma opened a lovely ornament of a dainty woman, Logan opened Jabba the Hutt. Such an ugly slug of a creature.

Logan and Grandma playing with their new toys.

A Birthday hot chocolate for Logan.
Yes, that is whipped cream in his hair!
After Grandma's house we went to Great Grandma, Shirley's house. We ate home made tacos and terrorized the rest of the family. Grandma had a great chocolate cake with green coconut as grass and a pink pig. Logan also had his own cake as well as gifts to open. Wow, what a spoiled kid, he made out like a bandit on Grandma's Birthday.
Grandma wanted to have a family picture for her Christmas card. We took at least 20 shots and each one was funnier than the next. Either Castle wasn't looking, Logan was playing with the dog, Grandma was fighting to keep the dog sitting and facing the right way.
Castle and Grandpa didn't have any gifts to open but they enjoyed themselves anyway.
