School??..... already ?!?

just a funny story...

there is a girl in my primary class that likes to think she is always right,

and i am coming to find she is quite the fibber!

she was sitting next to a girl who was wearing flip flops,

and i hear her say with confidence and no doubt in her mind... "god and bishop said that we're not allowed to wear flip flops to church!"

i just thought it was funny...

michio's family from japan was here for about a week.  

on saturday we had a nice big dinner together.

on sunday we had breakfast with them, and that was the last time we were going to see them.

we brought some things to give to them.

 there were 2 brothers that were michio's cousins.  

one of them came with their wife, and the other came with their daughter.

michio gave each of the guys a members only jacket, and a few ties from the 70's.

i brought all of the scarves that i have been crocheting for them to choose from, and also the earrings that i have been making.

since they do not speak english, we had michio's sister (who served her mission in japan) translate for us.

i told her to tell them that they could choose one scarf each, and a few earrings each.

as they are looking through everything i am sitting on the couch occupied with all the nieces and nephews....

and the next thing i see is that all of the scarves i had made were going into their suitcases!!!

i didnt know what to do.... they looked so happy and were so grateful!!!

michio's sister came up to us moments after i had told michio and she felt so bad because she was sure she told them choose and not take them all!

i have been making those to sell at the craft fair we are going to participate in in october.

it was a couple hundred dollars worth of scarves if i were to sell them...

buttttt..... it was too late to say anything to them.

plus they have several feet of snow in the winter, and it is something that they can share with the rest of the family that didn't get to come to america, so that pretty much makes it worth it.

don't get me wrong i was still kinda sad...

so on the way home i had a moment of silence.

after that i was good, and on monday michio came with me to the store to buy more yarn =]

other news... summer is over!

i really feel like i have had no summer!

i literally only had 2.5 weeks off before having to go back to school...

and on that break i've already gotten homework.....

tomorrow is the beginning of a 3 day orientation for me....

first of all... why does an orientation need to be 3 days !?!

anddd... it is from 8:30am-4pm all three days....

whyyyyyyyyyyyyy....

and then the first day of school is monday.

im getting a headache just thinking about it...

and not to mention.... 

today i woke up with 4 mosquito bites... all in the middle of my forehead!!!!!!!

whyyyyyyyyyyyy

here is a short video of our cutie niece kalo to lighten the mood
