Gardner Village Elves | Mad Hatter Utah
http://madhatterutah.com/gardner-village-elves
Saturday we wanted to see the elves at Gardner Village, so around lunch we packed up and did it! The weather was awesome! Mid 50’s all week, which is super unusual for Utah, usually we’re mid 20-30 by now, with snow on the ground and grey skies above. Apparently it hasn’t been this warm since 1939, and I wasn’t around back then. As soon as we got there we picked up a “scavenger hunt” list to find certain elves and win a piece of taffy for Phoenix at the end. We wandered down a path next to the book shop ...

All Hallows Eve 2014 | Mad Hatter Utah
http://madhatterutah.com/all-hallows-eve-2014
All Hallows Eve 2014. It’s nice to be working when my favorite holiday rolls around. The costume shops open up and I am able to afford a few strange new things. This year we found a very cute wicked fairy costume for Phoenix, and Stile was attracted to the jesters. We trick or treated a few houses, and answered the door as fairies. WileE. came over and we watched Betelguise and the vampire Johnny Depp movie. Quite entertaining. Stile’s friend had a birthday party the Saturday after Halloween that I...

CONduit 2015 | Mad Hatter Utah
http://madhatterutah.com/conduit-2015
CONduit is a small Sci-Fi/Fantasy convention based in Salt Lake City. Their theme this year was “There and Back Again.” We didn’t do anything along the lines of that. Stile and I have been going to it for at least the last 6 years. We take Phoenix now as well. Friday we got there pretty late, we started a children’s quest for Phoenix. We also sat through a panel on Geek Parenting. Phoenix was thrilled to find Belle, so we had a picture taken with her. Even though there were many fewer people than previou...

http://madhatterutah.com/2014-utah-winter-faire
2014 Utah Winter Faire. Oops, I forgot to categorize. 2013 began the Utah Winter Faire. We attended, loved it, and am so glad they’re continuing our new December tradition this year. Stile, WileE, my cousin, her daughter, Phoenix, and I went to this years Utah Winter Faire. Sunday. It worked best for everyone’s schedule. I bought the multi person pass, which gets 6 people in for a mere $25, children under 6 are free. Then I started inviting people since Stile and I only make up 2 on the ticket. These pic...

Phoenix Shopping Trip | Mad Hatter Utah
http://madhatterutah.com/phoenix-shopping-trip
Mid November came, and with it chill air. Phoenix is growing so quickly, she’s outgrown all of her 18 month clothes, including the cute leopard print coat she’s used for two years. Her shoes were found at the DI for very cheap while I was laid off, and she had no snow boots for the coming winter. It was time to head out and buy her some new clothes. We went to South Towne Mall in Sandy. They are very kid friendly, with many clothing shops specifically for little ones. The carousel has been there since my...

Mad Hatter | Mad Hatter Utah

RSS feed for this section. A month ago, my 3 year old told me she wanted to be “A dragon by day, a spider by night.” Her words. I told her I wasn’t making 2 costumes. Then I got out my drawing stuff and put the 2 together. I asked her what color dragon she’d want to be, she responded […]. Continue Reading →. Continue Reading →. Continue Reading →. A friend of mine is doing her kitchen up in roosters. She came across a valance she loved, ordered it, and though she loves the style, the colors didn̵...

A Weekend at ..Home | Mad Hatter Utah
http://madhatterutah.com/a-weekend-at-home
A Weekend at .Home. We were given a real weekends before “The Event” at Tesoro.”The Event” sounds like something out of a horror flick, somewhere I don’t want to be. However, it is technically just a shut down. They take down power and process so we can work in the units safely, and add to or remove what needs changing. A weekend isn’t a very long time, and I did my best making good use of my time. I will have to take a picture and post it here at a later date. We bought her a cute little pants outfit wi...
