Willow Pond Park

 Some friends were headed to a park today so we decided to go play with them.  There was a big rock wall that DJ loved climbing up.  He is getting to be so big and independent.

 Alex is doing really good at climbing too.

 We had fun on the slides too!

 

We love our friend Tanner and were so glad he let us come play with him.

 DJ had fun trying to put the puzzles together.

 There were many things to climb up.

 The boys love to play together!

 We had some fun races down the slides.

 We have such a great friend!

Church History Museum

We went with some friends to the Church History Museum. We heard that it had a fun place for the kids to play. We walked around the bottom level for a bit. The boys liked seeing the big ship and climbing into the ship's beds.

We played with blocks and helped translate the Book of Mormon.We cooked food.

This was DJ and Alex's favorite part.

DJ loves to pretend to cook food with the dirt outside at our house, so he was in heaven when there was actual food and pans to pretend with.

We helped build a ship.After the ship was build we were able to fish from it. DJ caught one all by himself.

We played in the garden.

We danced, well DJ was too cool to dance but Alex and Tanner got into it.

We got to see a gigantic statue of Angel Moroni. Then we walked around outside and saw all of the beautiful fountains.

We love to see the temple!

We had so much fun on our adventure with our friend, Tanner!

Swimming Pool

Ashley got Alex a swimming pool for his birthday. We decided to invite a friend over to play in it today. Jason and I put it put last night so it would have the morning to warm the water up. DJ wanted to go outside all morning, but I successfully kept him inside and happy.

Here are the boys getting into the pool.

We put the slide into the pool and they loved sliding into the water.DJ and Alex playing in the water.

DJ had no hesitation getting into the pool and playing. He loved every second of his time in there today. He slid down the slide about a million times. He enjoyed sitting in the water and playing with the toys.

Alex hesitated going into the pool. When he first got in he wanted to get out again. Soon he got used to it and enjoyed playing in the water and with all of the toys.

Here are the three amigos playing in the pool.

I like how the two little boys are cheering DJ on.

A lot of splashing occurred.

I got out simple cups which entertained the boys quite a bit. Here is DJ trying to throw water on the other two boys, but it looks like it is going to get him instead.

They had so much fun playing.

They took a break from the pool for awhile and rode bikes,

played with bubble toys,

and had a water fight.

This picture of DJ sliding cracks me up. It was the first time he went that far in the water.

We had an amazing day with our friend. We are so happy the boys love water so much! We are looking forward to many more water days!

Discovery Gateway

We were very lucky today and were able to go with our friend to Discovery Gateway. We had so much fun there and there was so much to see and do. What a fun place to explore! Mom took a lot of pictures so these are in no real order, but enjoy!

We played the piano.

It was neat that the piano was just our size.

We played with so many fun things.

It was fun watching the balls go up the tubes.

Alex played in the boat.

He slid down a slide very creatively.

Alex rode the horse, his very favorite thing.

The boys played together.

We took a break and had a drink, there were so many things to do.

The boys favorite part was playing in the water!

There was a little bird house that the kids loved playing in. It was fun how the couches were all perfect sizes for the boys!

The boys had fun playing in the building area.

Riding on the bulldozer.

Building a tower.

Gathering blocks

Playing music

They loved the real helicopter outside that they could play in.

These boys are best buddies!

We are lucky to have such a great friend to play with!
