Playin' Hooky

A few weeks ago I had to take a couple of hours off of work in the morning but then still had to go in and finish out the day. While I was out, even just those few short hours, I realized that I really needed to schedule an extra day off. So I did just that. And God worked it out wonderfully that the day I scheduled fell right before an in service day, so I just got an early start to the weekend. A museum in the city was having a special Star Wars exhibit so we contributed to the truancy of a minor and took Logan downtown. He had not been to Museum of Science and Industry before, so he was very excited.

I was a little crabby...

but then I grabbed Logan and we went for a beautiful fall walk. Afterwards we hung out at the park for a little bit. Hooray for fall!!!!

Hey Little Boy, want some candy?

Logan never officially went trick-or-treating this year but he did get to go to a halloween extravaganza at his uncle's house. He had a great time and got lots of candy there, but the day after halloween, he was a little confused as to why he hadn't gone trick-or-treating yet. We reminded him about the party and all was well. Who could blame him really for wanting to wear his black ninja "dollar store" special again. And about that, I am so thankful that he did not care that his ninja suit was terribly cheap and quite possibly made of the same material as those gowns that they use in doctor's offices. He loved it and because it only cost a dollar I was able to splurge and get a sword (cuz every ninja needs a sword), which also only cost a dollar. The only picture I took of him in his costume was with my cell phone, so the quality is not the greatest but he's pretty cool looking if you ask me.
