Trip to Logan with cousins!

I had a hockey game in Logan this last weekend and Preston and Devin decided to come with us! 

Nolan getting comfy for the drive ☺ As we were headed north Nolan asked if Beckett and Rhett were coming too. When we said yes he replied, "I'm so excited. I just love my cousins." ♥ Oh and also, it was funny because he just could not figure out that Logan is a place and not his other cousin Logan. He kept asking if we're going to Logan's house ☺

We love to make a day of it and hit all the usual spots...

Maddox's 

The Hyrum City Cemetery

to visit Gm Mathews and her parents and other family members.

It was a nice day so we didn't really expect snow, but of course there was a lot! We just have to learn to expect lots of snow at the cemetery until May ☺ Here we are trekking up to Gm and Gp Stanton's grave.

After the trip Devin sent us this picture that Beck drew. I wasn't sure what it was at first so she explained and it's just the sweetest. Apparently he very proudly said, "I drew a picture of Grandma Mathews marker stone. I drew x's for her eyes because she already died." Devin said at first she was a little mortified but the more he talked to her about it the more impressed she was with how much he understands. He had asked a lot of questions after we visited the cemetery so they explained to him how after you die your spirit goes to heaven and where your body goes. He went on to say, "now when Grandpa Mathews dies I know where he'll be...I'm sure going to miss him." Awwww! Pull out those heart strings why don't ya! Those boys sure love Granky and are happy to know they can always visit him no matter what!

 The Logan Temple 

We showed the boys this fun little nook and they loved it.

Hugs!

Cutest cousins!

The Bluebird

This is the cutest little ice cream and soda parlor (and diner) right on Main St. in Logan. I remember my Uncle Robert taking us there when Grammy (my Gm Mathews mom) died. I've also been told that my Gm Mathews sister had her wedding reception in the upstairs room.

It was a little crazy trying to navigate it with kids, it's not really set up for little ones, but it was still fun!

Around the mirror is solid marble!

Then to the main event  ☺ my hockey game! My good friend Becca Hall and her parents, sister, and two neices also came to the game! Seeing the Hall's is usually part of our agenda whenever we go to Logan so it was perfect and so nice of them to come!

Put me in the game coach!

Alyson gave the boys this awesome popper book and they love it!
