The Rainbow Stacker

My parents gave Levi the rainbow stacker!





And Grandma Kathleen gave him the semi circle add on set! It’s all SO fun. We’ve been building endless ideas. 










































We’ve decided the playroom needs a Rainbow Stacker Challenge wall. Anyone who visits us will be challenged to create something with the rainbow stacker and we will add a picture of them with their creation to the wall!

Levi is 2!

Levi turned two years old! He had a curious George birthday because he loves monkeys. 





He thought breakfast with Georgie was pretty fun.  







His Godparents spent the morning with us playing in the backyard. 

After lunch we had dairy free cupcakes from Goldenrod bakery. 

The minute I brought in the pink box Levi knew there was a treat inside. We had no idea he knew that pink box so well!


We celebrated with Grandpa Burda as well. 

Random Happenings

Augustine made Levi a Baby Batcave and they both thoroughly enjoyed playing with it. 

These two have been tight lately. They’re always doing something together. 

Lewis was reliving his babyhood by making a hair tent, as he calls them. He used to LOVE my hair as a baby. I couldn’t lay on the floor without him crawling over and burying his face in it. 

Levi has been playing everything and anything all week long. I often wonder what he’s doing because he’s been so content. I’ve found him playing happily in the playroom with all kinds of toys. It’s how a mom wishes her toddler would behave. 

I had some art to deliver this week from the art show, so I took advantage of the deliveries and stayed for a while. Had a lovely chat with Kay Lynn from bible study, and the one and only Lisa K. Ashley M picked up her art and stayed for dinner on the deck.

Twelve Years on Campus

Logan finished out the year by announcing that he will be adjusting his role in FOCUS for the first time in 12 years. 

He will still teach his classes at Newman, help with larger events including Boot Camp, and have a bible study, but his main role will be taking care of missionaries in Staff Care through HQ. It’s an exciting new endeavor!

Two of Logan’s students received an award for their outreach to non-Catholic students on campus. Logan looks forward to taking care of students by taking care of their missionaries!

Team Mass/Window Dedication

Logan and the big boys went to Mass with the team and ended up getting to serve for the first time ever!

The two St. Joseph stained glass windows are the last two to go in at Newman, and two of Logan’s favorites. 

He’s Almost Two?!
