Nerd Dance




Last Saturday night (Sept 7) was the first school dance of the year. It was a nerd dance. Kenzie wore my Benetton pants that I wore in college! Really? They are NOT nerdy......at least not in my mind. I will say, with her button down shirt, tie and glasses, she looked great!

Alex was planning on going too, but he went to a BYU football game earlier and it was delayed due to rain so he didn't make it. Bummer. Jay and I were the chaperones, so Maylin got to go. She dressed up too and looked so great! She had so much fun, but got tired at the end. Jay and I had fun taking pictures, watching Maylin and Kenzie dance.
 

 Here is my cute little nerd girl dancing with dad! Maylin loved the treats. They had sugar cookies decorated like different elements from the periodic table, chips, water labeled H2O and the room was decorated with Legos and sci-fi paraphernalia!  Maylin loved the balloons.

This is the 10th grade teacher Mr Dye. Oh my gosh! He was hysterical. He changed his voice and talked like the nerdiest kid ever. He had a story to tell you every time he saw you, about one of his nerd adventures. He would offer everyone a Clorox wipe that he had hanging from his belt and he would tell them his "mama said, they kill 99.9% of germs. I use them all the time. I don't want to get sick and miss chess club." He killed it!



Every dance, Maylin always is a hit with the Asian exchange students. They spoil her and dance with her. These are two of her favorite friends.

Did I just hear that?

Today I was at W*lM*rt and I had the WEIRDEST experience. I can't wait to hear what you all have to say about it. I was at the self check out and the worker that handles those came over to Nini and put her hands on Nini's cheeks and literally put her nose against Nini's nose. Okay....don't know you, plus it is serious cold and flu season. I pulled the cart back quickly. The lady was talking to Nini and asking her how old she was and telling her how cute she is (she is that). Then she said to me, "where did you get her from?" That question threw me. I have been asked where she is from, what nationality she is, but never, "where did you get her from?" I said China, but was thinking, "does she think I got her from a store or something?" This was just the beginning of what was the MOST outrageous conversation I have ever been apart of. She asked me her name. I told her and she said, "Thank you! It makes me so happy to hear that name."...

Maylin's room

Here is an update on painting. The doors continue to be a nightmare. We don''t have doors on the girls bathroom and no doorknobs on any of the other doors. Hopefully next week. I love everything else. Many of you asked about the glaze in the kitchen. It is an oil based glaze that comes in black, white, brown. You roll it on with a small roller and then take it off with a rag, by blotting it. You can make it darker or lighter depending on how much you put on and how much you take off. Here are pictures of Maylin's room. I was scared to make a change with 2 colors, but I think I like it. I don't know if you can tell but on the pink paint it is a wash (first white swirly, then pink) with light white flowers like the top pink ones. I picked words to go around her room that may inspire her. The Chinese translation is underneath. Of course, we used Meng, that was her first name...Meng ni and they called her Nini. The words are in vinyl and the flowers were painted using a pa...

Happily ever after

NieNie Dialogues: April 15, 2019 Christian is the most important person in Stephanie's life. She made this post about him. She wrote about how much she loved him and he loved her. Every year she dedicates a song to him as they enter another year as husband and wife. She said, "Everyday I pray to God, thanking him for Christian. I thank God that he is my husband, my protector, and greatest defender. I thank God that Christian loves and respects me.......And I thank God that I will be with Christian forever and even to infinity and beyond." I am not married, but I related to this post because I love my dad. He is my protector and my provider. He really takes care of our family. He is so great. I can tell my mom loves him too. Even though it embarrasses me, I love to watch my parents hug and kiss. I am glad we are sealed together. After reading this post, I decided I needed to write in my journal characteristics I want in a husband. These are the things I wrote: Must l...
