Kids Say the Darndest Things

Everyday I get a good laugh out of the things my kids say. One day last week we were writing biographies about our family. I asked the kids to tell about what their siblings favorites are...favorite color, holiday, food etc. So one of my boys...a small and naive little thing...brings his paper over for me to edit. He told me he was writing about his baby brother. Down on the paper I saw the words, "booby milk." I asked him what he meant by this because I thought he just misspelled something. He said that that is what his brother eats...booby milk. I couldn't stop laughing at how simply and 'matter of factly' he said it.

One of my other girls was writing about her sister and how she dates a lot. She was comparing her sisters and how one sister doesn't date and the other dates a lot. She said her sister that dates had two boys that were after her. The girl in my class wrote, "I don't know why she dates a lot. I think it is because she wears lots of perfume. I don't know why she does that." So I began thinking, "Wow if that is all you have to do then I am in." If only it were that easy.

St. George

We went to In N Out in St. George-the only one in Utah. I would kill for those animal style burgers!

The first night we had a motel reserved through Tracy's parents time share. It was a sweet deal. So we get there at midnight and they had overbooked us. What's up with that? Can they do that? So they offered us smoking rooms and we said no. After hours of trying to get a hold of people, Motel 6 was the last ditch effort at getting a cheap place to sleep for the night.

I never knew how be-a-u-tiful the St. George temple is. It was a beautiful sunny day and the temple was so white and grand. There were also like ten brides there, so I would not recommend getting married there...

I was surprised that there was no Angel Moroni. I can't remember the story behind that, but I think it's the only temple that doesn't have one. I love this temple.

My 24th Birthday at Goodwood!!!

The boys took my camera and were making dumb faces..

The whole gang...good to see some old friends!

Rob would put his face in the picture..what a goof.

Some of my most favorite people in this world were there.

Leave it to me to make a dumb face:}

Insects

I just had to tell everyone something funny that happened to me today. I was helping one of my students read a story about birds and answer questions. He has a hard time spelling words. One of the questions was, "What do birds eat?" He answered the question and wrote it down. I looked at his paper and it said 'in sex...'

I freaked out and asked him why he had written sex on his paper. He said, "Look teacher, I wrote insects on my paper." I just thought it was so funny that he wrote insects as 'in sex." The other students wondered what I was laughing about...I just kept them guessing.
