Life

I have been a slacker and have kind of avoided posting anything. I just wanted to give everyone an update on whats been going on in our lives. Kirk is going to school and studying a lot. He also watches Calista most of the time. My Mom has been helping out a lot. Have I mentioned how wonderful my Mother is? She is the best! She drives down from Blackfoot on Tuesday's and Thursdays and every other Friday to watch Calista for me. She has been my saint. I have a friend in the ward, her name is Ellen Tatton who watches Calista on Monday and Wednesday each week for a couple of hours while Kirk has class and I am stuck at my job all day. We have been blessed.
Last night was fun and I wanted to share it with friends and family. My calling is Achievement days and so Tuesday nights are my activity night and I have way too much fun with this calling. So I wanted to talk to the girls about being modest and clean. So I dressed in one of my tank tops that I normally wear under shirts, but I wore it without my garment top and I also wore some shorts and I rolled them up and had my garments haning out a little bit and then I was chewing a huge piece of gum and twirling it around my finger and to top it off I took some spaghetti sauce and put it around my mouth on my face so I looked really sloppy and gross. It was pretty funny and those girls thought I was crazy. They at first just looked at me funny and didn't say anything. Then they started asking why I was dressed the way I was and what I had on my face, because I looked gross. It was great! Just the reaction I wanted and it was a nice discussion on modesty and cleanliness. It was a good night.
Calista has been growing up so fast, she is finally starting to remember and sing songs. We were singing "Row, row, row your boat" in the bath tub the other night and I had no idea that she new all the words. She sang them all by herself. It was awesome. It is a fun feeling when your kids all of a sudden just get something and they are so proud of themselves.
I can't wait until this weekend, because my Mom and Paul and Kristen and their kids and me and Calista are all going to Utah. We are going to go to Lagoon on Friday night for Frightmares. Then Saturday we are going to go to some museums and shopping and just hang out. I haven't had a fun weekend like this in a very long time, so I am very excited. Kirk thinks I am crazy, but he wanted to stay home and work, so I think he is crazy. He hates going in the car on trips with my Mom and me. Especially when he drives, because my Mom and I always gang up on him, which by the way we don't do on purpose. It just happens sometimes. So if we ever go to Utah I usually drive. Plus I know the area a little better than he does.
Have a great day everybody who reads this.
