 Wednesday: biking to work and playing in the sun at 10:48 AMI think that all businesses should bring back the "bring your daughter/son to work" days. It is so important for our children to see what we do for a living, how we work and what it is to have responsibility. It also created a bond between parent and child and helps them to better understand their parent and what they do to support their family. Plus its lots of fun and unless you work in a hazardous environment it can be fun to see your kid try and do your job.

Tuesday! Go on an adventure! at 9:55 AM Ooh there are so many fun things coming up this weekend i can hardly wait. The Ogden Arts festival, the 5k for women of the Congo, the rock a belly deluxe, and lots of really really rad shows. There aren't many events happening today but it is a perfect day for a hike, a park picnic or a bike ride. here are my fave places to go for outdoor fun: Taylor canyon: easy accessible and a great hike for families. This trail has great views of Ogden and nice places to picnic. Ogden river parkway: bike rides are never boring on Ogden river parkway. The beautiful river and mountain views and parks and benches along the way make this the perfect spot for beginner bikers and for the kiddos. Things you can find along this amazing trail: Lorin farr park, El monte golf course, dinosaur park, botanical gardens, king fisher aviary, kayak park, big dee sports park, bingham cyclery and more! dinosaur park: located off Ogden river parkway dinosaur park is a ton of fun for the Dino lover. You can walk around exploring and learning about different prehistoric creatures and play on their playground too. In the summer there are food stands when you get hungry and lots of cool events too. liberty park: this park is a great multi-purpose park. threes a kickball field, basketball courts, tennis courts, a giant field, picnic ares and a playground. The playground is safe and has a cool rock climbing area. Mount Ogden park: This is a giant park with a lot of space to play and a really really cool playground. there are also really fun hiking trails but more for adults than kids. The views are breathtaking and the hike is challenging and fun. lions club park: A secluded park away from roads makes it easier to relax while your kiddo darts around. There is a huge field for playing games and a sheltered picnic area and BBQ too. This park has sand in it so bring shovels! So what are you waiting for? Go on an adventure and have fun!

I cant wait for the next one (which is later today so join Ogden rad mamas to find out more!) and neither can my daughter.

For lots of photos from my fun in Ogden Utah visit https://www.facebook.com/indieogdenHave you heard of the Ogden city oylers? The oylers are only the coolest softball team here in Ogden..ever!It all started when Timmy rawk was told the team he wanted to join was already filled with "talented" players, boy can i identify with that! Timmy set out to form his own team of people who just weren't making the cut but were equally as awesome. The oylers just wanted to play softball and have a good time and so they banded together to form their own team of friends.  The Ogden city Oylers are having a competition on their facebook page to win a pair of Ear Pollution headphones (retailing for 50 bucks!). The contest will go all week and it goes like this: the person who can get the most friends to like our page will win the headphones. Easy enough! so enter today!
