Fan Fest 2009

We went to the Diamond Backs' Fan Fest at Chase field downtown a couple weeks ago. It's a big celebration down on the ball field. We had a lot of fun going through the dugout and touring the clubhouse. We saw a lot of the players up close and the manager. Enoch can now say he's hit a ball in a MLB stadium.

Two players giving autographs - Chris Young and Connor Jackson.

The Boys

Here are a few pictures from the last month.


Caleb is a climber. We can't leave any chairs pulled out away from the table at all or he'll climb right up. To amuse him I let him sit on the table for a few minutes during breakfast the other day.




We visited the Casa Grande National Monument just 30 minutes south of here last month. It is this huge structure in the middle of a field in the middle of nowhere. The whole area around it has been excavated. Several hundred years ago it was a village of Hohokam Indians.




After living in our apartment for almost two years we finally figured out that our hammack can be hung on our balcony. It is now Duane's favorite place to read and nap.




This is almost the only picture that I could get with both kids looking at the camera. They just don't like to hold still at the park.
