GORGEOUS!!!!!

Last post, I mentioned how beautiful the change in seasons has been here in Logan! Oh my goodness! We walked to church on Sunday! It's actually pretty ridiculous that it was the first time that we have walked, since we've lived about a block away from the building for over a year now.

Also, last post, I took a picture of some fantastic yellow daffodils. Confession: they're the neighbors flowers. I didn't feel any remorse for taking the picture, but I didn't want to take credit for the flowers being at our house.

So, we have a few clusters of flowers that bloomed over the weekend, a tree that has huge white blossoms. It has more and more blossoms every day.

Plus our pear trees even have little buds on them too! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! So beautiful.

and of course

since I've started this post

...

it's now raining

and gloomy

but hopefully this means the flowers will bloom quicker

i.e.

April Showers Bring May Flowers

Right?

Loving Logan!

We (I) came to this blessed land 1 year ago, and I just love it! The Sun is shining, the birds are chirping, there are buds and blossoms on the trees and Spring is finally coming back into our lives. It's the gorgeous Logan we remember from last year. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the snow and the crisp winter. But, I'm totally ready for warmth.

This weekend, we decided to get out of the house and actually do something. We went to "Baby Animal Days" at the American West Heritage Center. It was so fun to go and experience one of the festivals they have in Logan. There were tons of baby chicks, ducks, sheep, bunnies, goats, and even bears from Yellowstone/Bear World.

They had a huge display. I only had my phone to take pictures, which isn't the best way to capture a moment. But I must say, this one wanted to come home with Collin.

I don't really know what we're doing here, but they gave us these when we saw the bears!

It was really fun to get out and do something we had never done. It helps us appreciate Logan a lot more. We are determined to go to all the "days" of Logan and live out our Logan Experience to the fullest.

Pic of the Day

This was our view out our basement door. I love how the railing looks with the snow and the tree branches in the background. Watch out, Ansel Adams.

Weekend Visit

The Thornton's came to visit this weekend. Cory, Tiffany, Sadie, Jaxon, Max and Ruby came to visit us this weekend and it was such a fun, yet quick trip. Collin and I loved having them in town. They got into town on Saturday with perfect timing, just after I got out of work. We gave them a quick tour and then went to Angie's for dinner. The tagline for the restaurant is "Where the Locals Eat" so we figured we should give them a taste of Logan. After dinner, we drove around town so that Tiffany could reminisce of the time that she was going to USU. We stopped at the University and walked around a bit. Tiffany took some fun pictures (which I managed to forget to snag off her camera chip). The rest of the weekend was full of horseplay, Super Mario Bros Wii, ganging up to tickle Cory's feet, eating and just spending time together. It was wonderful, and I love that they made their first Spring Break stop in Logan. And I wish I would have taken more pictures. Scratch that. I wish I would have taken pictures period.
