The poet

On Sunday, in primary (age 3-12 which I am the pianist for...LOVE this calling...I absolutley love being able to show up for church not having to prepare for anything and just being able to sit behind the piano and listen to the kids sing...it is the BEST!), the kids were asked to write a poem about mothers, and then asked for volunteers to read them. Of course Nathan was ecstatic to share his. Here it is:

Awesome Cook
Super Woman
Loves Me
Drives me
WICKED Awesome

He put a lot of emphasis on shouting the "Wicked" part. All the leaders got a good chuckle out of that one. (Speaking of Wicked...have any of you seen the Broadway musical Wicked? It is coming back here. If not...you should...I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it!)

It's Time!

For Christmas my mom gave us all clocks that her, my dad and Sue made. Yeah...can you even believe that they made this? I am LOVIN it! It says Kunz & Co Est. 1994. It matches my house colors perfectly, and I even had the perfect spot to hang it. Pretty amazing I tell ya. What did I give them for Christmas? Something made with love? Something that will stand the test of time? They got gift certificates to Sizzler. Oh yeah baby. OH yeah. :)

Saturday Market

My mom and I (me and my mom?), went to the Saturday Market in Portland. I've always wanted to go and check it out, but never have. Guess that is why you need people to come and visit, so you go do stuff like that. It was quite the experience. There were lots of little booths, with the most random things for sale (my mom said it reminder her of being in Mexico) Everything from homemade soap, jewelry, dolls, dog outfits, glass bongs (I swear they had to be what you smoke dope out of, the people selling them were a little shady too), to tie died underwear. Wow...how did I ever live without tie died underwear? :) My mom made a special purchase. She is the cub master back in Pocatello, so she saw these and thought it would be a real hoot to wear when they talk about knife safety. We did get a good laugh out of it. When we showed Nathan, he was a little freaked out at first. It was a fun/interesting afternoon. Here's a picture of my mom's purchase. We had a good talk with Nathan about the danger of running with scissors. I don't think he'll forget the visual. :)
