A BIG Family Day

Last Friday Jeff's dad finished up his treatments at MD Anderson! Whoo hoo! It was such a special day as a family. Jeff's sister came in on Thursday night, Jeff was off Friday and we all went to the final treatment together. Logan loved the great play area they have set up for kids, and we were all there to witness the ringing of the gong to celebrate the end of the 8 week ordeal!

We love you Papa!

After treatment, we headed out for lunch and then hit up some fun at the Rodeo. Thankfully, this was the Friday before Spring Break, so we were not only blessed with great weather, but a small crowd and short lines for everything Logan could have wanted to see and do!

(A little windy, but we were just happy to see the sun!)

Watching the livestock show

He held on a conversation with the pot-belly!

Tractor Fun
Grana and Papa
Now, this is one big tire!

And then came the CARNIVAL!
This was a lot of fun because it was the first time Logan was actually able to ride on most of the rides and really participate. He wasn't scared one bit and really stuck with his whole "I can do it myself" which is a phase we're having a lot of fun with these days! (a bit of sarcasm for sure!)

Like here, he climbed the stairs to the top of this slide, all by himself!
And then his skinny little self came flipping down!
He ended at the bottom and the first words were,
"I want to go again!"

Riding the cars

And they went pretty high

These were quite hilarious!

What a great way to take in the rodeo... celebrating a special day with family!
