Utah, Utah, I don't even know what Utah is

Tonight Hallee had us all laughing during dinner when she sang, "Utah, Utah, I don't even know what Utah is."  She can always make us laugh.
We took advantage of early out on Monday and went to Lagoon as soon as the kids got home from school.  It worked out nice because Keith had to work late and Lagoon was empty, we didn't have to wait in any lines.  I had fun going on rides with the kids.  Wyatt tried the Scrambler for his new ride, he loved it.  I'm so glad we went, it was the perfect day to go.
Caitlyn has started babysitting.  She has babysat for two families in our ward now.  On Thursday when she got home Leslie (the woman she babysat for) texted me and said,"She might be my new favorite babysitter.  She knows what she's doing and she instills a ton of confidence as soon as she walks in the door.  I loved her!" I thought that summed up Caitlyn well.  She loves babysitting and she loves earning extra money!
Wyatt had to get his cavity filled this week.  He did awesome.  I'm so glad that is over with, hopefully we won't have any more cavities for a long time.
Hallee and I have been living it up while all the kids are at school.  I really needed a pedicure so we went together while the kids were in school.
Hallee didn't want a pedicure, but she liked getting her fingernails and toenails painted. 
She had fun watching TV with Jackson while I cleaned the next morning.
Ron and Diane are in town dropping Haley off at BYU so we all met up at Brick Oven on Friday night.  It was fun to visit with everyone.  After dinner Mel and I went over to Tiff's house to visit.  It was a late night, but so much fun.
Jonah had his football game bright and early on Saturday morning.  It was a rough game.  Saratoga Springs has a really good team.  Jonah had a couple of good tackles, but he is still hesitant to get in there.  I can understand why he is nervous, but I hope he can get past it and be aggressive.  
Last night Ron and Diane came over to see our house.  Hallee and Wyatt were already in bed, but Caitlyn and Jonah had fun showing off for them. 
I've always loved Ron and Diane so it was great to have this time to visit with them.  
Tonight was one of those wonderful nights when all of the kids played so well together.  They were playing "Boxcar Children."  I loved sitting downstairs and listening to them have fun together without fighting!
