September Happenings

 Congrats to our big kindergartener, who was nominated for the first Jr. Husky award in his class. 
 His award was for learning all of his letter sounds and for being a kind friend.  Way to go, Logan!
 Logan loves science!  Lucky for him, his uncle John is a biologist, and I work in the science department of an online university with access to a bunch of smarty-pants science Ph.Ds.  Whenever he has questions I can't answer (or that he does not believe I know the answer to), he writes emails to his "Scientists".  Pictured above is one such scientist, Dr. Brenna Gillman (physicist).  She kindly invited Logan on a personally guided tour of the Utah Museum of Natural History to teach him all about the exhibits.
 
 Here are my two little buddies on the last irrigation day of the year.  Despite increasingly chilly temperatures of the water and air, Stockton decided to take a dip.



 After swimming, Stockton took off toward the garden, ate some dirt (one of his favorite past-times), and crawled into the strawberry patch.
These boys love mowing the lawn with their dad.  Logan often rides a-top, sharing the headphones with his Dad.  When I'm unavailable, or when he gets jealous, Stockton climbs on too.

More fall fun coming soon...
