Shooting rockets at the festival of books! We went to the festival for a couple of hours. I was amazed at all there was to do!

 After the festival we went to a friends birthday party at the bowling alley. The boys loved it!

 (Alden got his cape at the festival and wore it for the next couple of days.)

 Our 3rd little baseball player!

end of baseball and parade

 Alden's last game was canceled which was a bit of a disappointment for him. He kept saying how we should go anyway because his team could play in the rain, maybe someone would show up, ext... The only thing that made it not so sad was that his coach had everyone meet up at Peter Piper Pizza for pizza and games. His coach talked to everyone individually to tell them their strengths.He told Alden how he sure is good at hitting the ball!
Something about Alden and baseball was he always wanted to be on time. ( I was usually running late) so to do so he would help me with things around the house then would get all his things together and go buckle himself in the car. Sometimes he would wait as much as 30 min in the car...he especially loved it if we got there early!

 Marana day parade! My boys love parades especially if there is a band and there usually is. We were glad we found out about this one. Lots of marching bands and lots of fun things for them to do. One of my Young Women performed at the end and had told me about it. We will definitely plan on going next year!

Free from training wheels!

 Alden and Calvin love riding their bikes especially now that the training wheels are gone.

 One day Calvin came in from playing, saw Benson was awake and went right over so he could talk to him. He laid by him talking for as long as Benson would allow. He loves to hold, talk to or play with his little brother.

 Above is Calvin at story time. Both boys love going to story time.
Below the boys put the chairs together in a fort. When I came outside they were pretending to be asleep in their reclining chair.

Marching band

 Alden and Calvin love the music man mostly because of the marching band. They always want to watch the part when the band comes out.  The other day when we had friends over they were so excited to do their own marching band.  We turned on the music gave everyone drums or shakers and they marched around playing with the music! My boys couldn't have been happier!

Grandma and Grandpa visit!

 We had overnight visitors in February. It was wonderful to see them and to get to spend a nice relaxing day with them. We went to the Gilbert temple open house and then played baseball at the park. It was a beautiful day with wonderful people!

This is one of Alden's new shirts and one of his favorites. One of the huge blessings of Alden being on an older baseball team was many of his teamates gave us there old clothes. They all came at just the right time!

  Visiting the dentist! They each got certificates for no cavities!

Below are just some pictures of everyday play.

new phone!

 End of January I got a new phone these are the first three pictures we took, taken at the library. I find that use my camera less and less and my phone more and more for pictures. I was just about to put March pictures up but realized I hadn't taken any with my camera. So this is my first post using my phone.
