I feel like I will get in trouble for saying this.

I love Scotland (yes I have been there).

I love kilts and tartan plaid. (When I was in Scotland I saw a boy going to prom in his kilt. I had an instant crush on him.)

If you're in my inner circle you probably know about the Scottish photo shoot. If you don't know, just ask.

I don't like the sound of the bagpipes.

Once I attended a ward social where they had a man play the bagpipes. As he walked in and began his concert everyone gasped with excitement and anticipation and surprise.

I was 1/2 a second away from plugging my ears.

When everyone's favorite song on the EFY cd was "Praise the Man" I promptly removed it from my ipod because of the backround instruments.

The reason I feel like I will get in trouble for posting this is because on three seperate occasions I have mentioned my dislike for the bagpipes to which the other people in the conversation looked horrified and said "my most spiritual experience has to do with the bagpipes"

OR

"the bagpipes are the most beautiful instrument in the world!"

So if you have a comment like that, go ahead.

Lemme have it.

But this is my blog and i'll say what I want to.

(That was sassy Kirsi coming out to play)

Some of Hawaii.....

And of course a vacay with Puff wouldn't be complete unless we visit a DDD.

This one was Hanks Haute Dogs.

I tried hard to like them, but I really don't like hot dogs.

Stay tuned for some "real" Hawaii

Phantom of the Opera :)

One day we went to Hollywood to see the Phantom of the Opera. 

I am obsessed with musicals.

We found stars, Leena Lou loves her.

I love her :) and also it looks like my legs are missing. (Don't worry they aren't)

It was so hot that we went to Trader Joes to get ice cream. Pinkberry on Hollywood Blvd closed down! So sad.

Here we are, plus my dad. He was taking the pic.

And the best part of the day was that we tried to get Puff to get out of the car and see the Chinese Theater and he said "I don't get why its such a big deal! Its just movie stars with their handprints in concrete. Just drive me by and I'll soak it all up and thats good enough for me!" 

Pineapple Pie

Abbs insisted that we make pineapple pie. I had never heard of it.

She assured me that was ok because she had the recipe in her head.

She made it up with a little help from me.

It was delicious, it tasted a bit like apple pie since she wanted to put cinnamon in it but delicious with whipped cream!

My boss got me this adorable wristlet from Disney World.

It is the cutest disney thing ever. It has Cinderella's castle on it.

Mine is baby blue and I love it!

Best night ever!

We had an impromptu "family reunion"

First Kenz and I were on Skype. Then we made Pocahontas join. Then we made MM join.

So fun!

Im dying of excitement.

In May, I am going here:

The kids I am watching right now are bilingual.

They speak English

and Nintendo.

The other day in the car this is what I heard (it makes no sense)

C: It was a giga shadow

M: All you have to do is aerial block them

C: But then I loose my combo

M: Well then limit break them

C: Oh yeah

And as the conversation progressed I got more and more confused. But they totally knew what was going on. I felt like I was in a land where I don't speak the language. But how do you learn to speak Nintendo?
