Logan in Logan

 We didn't mean to name our kids after citites, but we did.
 Last weekend, we decided to take Logan on a trip to Logan.
 He was very thrilled to visit the city that was named after him.  :)
 We snapped a few pics,
played in the woods,
watched Lilli run in her first marathon,
ate at a few delicious restaurants,
 and then headed back to real life after a lovely weekend.
Instead of a big family trip next year, we're going to head out on a bunch of little weekend getaways nearby.  Hopefully the breaks will do us good. :)

Kindie

In Fiji, Kindergarten was affectionately called Kindie.  I much prefer that name.  Cute, huh?

Logan started this week.  When I was a teacher of young children, parents and I often joked that I would only believe half of what their child told me about them, if they would believe only half of what their child told them about me.  My favorite comments about school so far are:

From Day 1 when we picked him up:

Parents: "Logan, how was your first day?!"
Logan: "Well, my teacher kicked me, and I fell and cut my knee, and I didn't get to play at recess because I was hurt."

From Day 3 when we picked him up:
Parents: "Logan, how was school?"
Logan: "I have the trickiest and nicest teacher of all, Mom.  All of the kids like her the best."

Yep, 50% sounds about right.  Lucky you, Logan.  Your teacher is tricky, nice, and not a kicker.  I hope your year is super duper!
