4-4-4 Tag, I'm It!

I've been tagged, (thanks Jesse)I'm supposed to post the 4th picture in my 4th file of pictures:
This was taken this last summer when the girls and I went to a baseball game. (I am trying really hard to think of the baseball team in Salt Lake and am drawing a blank, but I think it has a letter "z" in the name somewhere.) My dad and step-mom bought us tickets and we took some pictures outside the stadium waiting for them to come. This picture just happened to be the funny face one.

Now, I'm supposed to tag 4 people: Laura, Julie, Emily and Stacie.

Fall and Halloween


Halloween this year was fun. The girls were old enough to trick-or-treat without me holding their hands. We made it to all the houses in our neighborhood before Sara got tired.

Mary dressed up like a cheerleader and Sara was Snow White. I just used Halloween as an excuse to put make-up all over my face.
We don't have any trees in our yard, but the girls wanted to play in some leaves. So we got out our rake and went to the park. We made piles and jumped in. The girls had tons. I loved it because I didn't have to clean up the leaves when we were done.
The weather has been so nice. The girls have still been wearing flip-flops most of the time. And on Halloween they didn't even need jackets. I was all bundled up because I'm a crybaby when it comes to cold weather, but even I didn't complain once. It was awesome.


Pictures of summer

I finally downloaded some pictures from summer.

In August Ben's sister's boyfriend put together a "prom" for her because she never went in high school. It was pretty fun, this is Ben's brother Andrew and his date, my sister Michelle.
This is us at the prom, it was at Ben's parent's house.



These are some pictures of our Park City trip, the funnest part was visiting with my cousin and his family. They took us on a hike and made us dinner.

These are from Bear Lake. The girls loved the sand and the water.

My Website

I need everyone to visit my website at happydaychildcarecenter.com and let me know what you think. I couldn't find any kind of spell check while I was typing everything on it, so if you could please let me know if you find any spelling or gramatical or puntuation errors, that would help me out alot. I personally think I did a good job, but I know there is room for improvement so let me know what you think.

Thank you.

PS I have found my camera and will be post pictures within the next week or so!

Updates

I have been meaning to update for a while now, I just get so busy and I lost my camera. So here is an update with no pictures. I will be cleaning my house soon and I'm sure it'll show up, then I will post pictures.

This summer has been full of fun. Our trip to park city was nice and relaxing. We rented a condo for a few nights and stayed in and watched TV and took naps and went swimming in the pool at the condo. We also had dinner at my cousin's house. It was nice to see him and his family and his new house. THANKS SCOTT AND JAN.

We also went camping quite a few times. Once at Bear Lake which was awesome, and a few other times up in the hills past Cedar Fort.

We also had lots of birthdays in the last couple of months. Mary turned 4 and we had a big family party for her at our house. It was fun and she got too many presents. Sara turned 3 a few weeks later and because I didn't want to stress about hosting another big party we took her to the Mayan for dinner and then to the mall. She had fun and I didn't have to clean up a big mess. Ben turned 30 so we had some friends over to celebrate. It was fun.

Another highlight of the last few weeks is the arrival of my piano. It was my grandma's and my aunt had it at her house. When my grandma passed away my aunt offered it to me and I gladly accepted. I've had it for 2 weeks now and have played it everyday. It may take me a few years, but some day I'm going to be able to call myself a piano player.

Other than that, not much happening. Ben is out of town until Christmas and the daycare is going strong. The girls have been healthy and happy and everything is great. I'll post pictures when I find my camera.

Pony Express Days and Camping

I know I haven't posted in a while, but all is well in the Watt home. We have been busy. Here are some pictures of our most recent adventures. Last weekend we went camping. The girls had a blast. We just went up in the hills not to far from us, so there were no toilets or running water. Mary and Sara thought it was cool that they got to pee in the bushes. I was not so excited by it, but we had a great time.

The weekend before that we had Pony Express Days in Eagle Mountain. It's great because there is a carnival for three days in the park behind our house. The girls loved going over like ten times a day to ride rides, eat cotton candy and snow cones, and get free balloons from the booths. We also went to a movie in the park, which was really cold, but also a lot of fun.

This next week we are going to Park City for a little vacation. It worked out that I don't have any daycare kids for a few days so we are taking advantage of the free time to get away. I'm sure there will be pictures to post when we get back.
