Happy Days

Logan started to smile this week. Like most everyone else, he hasn't really shown an interest in dad's jokes. He does like it when mom rubs his cheek, though.

Logan's Flannel Shirt

Grandma bought Logan a flannel shirt in honor of Grandpa Heath. Grandpa Heath was a brick mason and wore flannel shirts all winter long. You have to admit, Logan looks pretty stylish in his new shirt.

The Joint

Eating at "The Joint" (aka La Frontera Cafe) is one of our regular traditions when we go to Salt Lake. Logan slept through dinner, of course, but that didn't keep the rest of us from enjoying burritos smothered with chile verde, chicken tacos, beans and rice, and chips and salsa.

Aunt Taren and Uncle John

Logan learned an important lesson from Uncle John today -- get behind your woman.

Uncle Jed and "The Neph"

Uncle Jed can't wait until Logan is old enough to go to the sand dunes. When informed that Logan is a few years away from riding motorcyles, Jed responded that I could buy Logan a bike now and that he would take good care of it until Logan is old enough to ride. Nice try, Uncle Jed.

Aunt Brooke

One of the nicest things about coming to Salt Lake is seeing family. Brooke and Ellie have been hanging out with us at Grandma's house since we got here. Brooke thinks Logan is the bomb, and has already informed Logan that she will be his coolest aunt -- or else!

Reception for Logan

Today we had a reception for Logan in Salt Lake. Friends and family stopped by to meet Logan and enjoy some of Grandma Heath's good cooking.
