Waco Weekend


Last weekend we made a family trip to Waco for Jeff's cousin's wedding. It was Logan's first time to stay in a hotel, so there was a lot to be enjoyed and taken in. I was very thankful for continental breakfast each morning and an indoor pool... oh, and the fact that Jeff's parents were in the room right next to us... loved the help!
We were checked in for less than 30 minutes before Logan was in the water.


The hot tub was something new... and once he learned how to use the jets himself, it was great entertainment for him!



Have to love that the DVD player is not "installed" in our car. We were able to bring it in and used it during some very much needed break times.
Movie... check!
Juice cup... check!
Snack... check!
Mommy and daddy break... check, check!



He thought it was pretty cool to look out at the highway and watch the cars go by... also waiting on Grana and Papa to get back from decorating.

On Saturday before the wedding, Daddy took Logan to Academy so I could take a nap. We needed a life jacket for the upcoming week at the lake and Jeff also bought him his first REAL golf club... not sure that the hotel room was the place for this toy, but oh well!

This is how he came in from the store... wearing the life jacket. Jeff said once he put it on him to try it on, he didn't want to take it off.

Sitting with Grana and Papa before the ceremony started.

Very thankful for the magic of goldfish...
at least he sat still for a little bit.

Just a few minutes later, he wanted to watch from over there.
Intently reading the program!

Logan and Mommy


Loving the punch at the reception!


Saying "Cheers" with everyone after the toasts!


He loved the bride! Though there was a little manipulation in this hug. He only understood one thing... he couldn't touch the cake until Cousin Katie cut it... so after this hug, he asked, "Are you going to cut your cake now?"


Had to see it happening... and it was hard to keep him out of the way of all the pics!


The only thing he knows about cake (besides how yummy it is) is that you are supposed to sing Happy Birthday to the person cutting it. Well, all the other kids are just watching and my son is singing Happy Birthday Katie! Quite funny if you ask me!


This was the first time I was able to meet Jeff's cousin Lori, who resides in California. Logan really took to her quickly.

And then the dancing! Logan was all about it!


He didn't even need anyone to dance with!
Everyone thought he was such a "ham" but I assure you, he had no idea how many people were watching him dance. He was so into it... kind of in his own world. There were strobe lights going with the music and that was his real focus!

Dancing with Mommy


Ok, so the line dancing stuff had him a bit confused. Here he is trying to watch and figure out what everyone is doing.


Deciding to give it a try himself...



Really had the hang of it by this point!



Dancing with Cousin Andrea

In the middle of all the girls... they were chanting "Go Logan" and he thought that was pretty cool!

A little confusion. He's been taught "Hook 'Em" with the hand sign, but Aunt Kelley has been pushing the "Gig 'Em" thing... so here he has one on each hand!
When you add in that my brother teaches him "Go Pokes" I just think, poor kid!

With Andrea and Ben... they look good holding a kid, don't they?

Saying goodnight to Aunt Kelley

And this is how the night ended around 11 for the little man.
He sure did have fun though!

The wedding was beautiful and we had a great time with family. Very happy to finally meet some people and I know Logan had a great weekend! He went home Sunday with Grana and Papa for his visit to the lake and we will see him this weekend at the Grace family reunion.
