Sewing

In Mrs. Frei's Class (FACS which stands for Family and Consumer Science) we're learning how to sew. In the first day we already had to thread the machine and thread the bobbin thing and it was pretty easy I guess. Me and my friend were helping each other along the way, we both really didn't get a thing Mrs. Frei was saying and since we sit next to each other we just asked each other what to do. On Monday we're supposed to be sewing a hand puppet and right after we're done with the puppet we move on to a second sewing project of our choosing. I picked to sew a ski cap and I asked Mrs. Frei if I could make it look like a Santa hat and she said yes but I have to buy all the supplies for it.

Mid- Terms

I got pretty much all A's on my Mid- Term progress report except for 1 D that I fixed by turning in my 1 day late paper that was worth a 100 points... But I turned it in now and I have an A- so its all good.

Jaime's House

This picture is from a couple months ago but when we went up to Jaime's house it was cool. We went to Thermopolis and drove around Casper and it was fun and Mom had a good time playing with Grant. (She's a baby hog.) and James, Jaime, Gary, Colene, Jenna, Jared and Christina (Jared's girlfriend) came down for Labor Day.

Random Stuff About School

Mr. Winslow was my band teacher last year but this year he hired another teacher for us so he could go to Deseret Hills Intermidiate. I'm not being mean but the new band teacher is the worst. But Mr. Winslow's gonna come back in 2 weeks and teach us for a whole week. In Language Arts my class and I are reading the Outsiders which is the bestest book in the whole world, it's hard to put it down when class is over and on Tuesday we're going to watch the movie and it's going to be awesome. And today (Thursday) I lost my check for school lunch and I missed the bus with my friend after school waiting to ask my teachers if they had it. Luckily, my 1st period teacher Mrs. Goettche (Get- che) found it and was turning it in to the office today.

First Week Of School

I made it through the first week of school alright... I did get in trouble from my bus driver but besides that it was fun. There was a Pre Algebra placement test I had to take to see if i'm really suposed to be in Pre Algebra I hope I passed it. At school they took out the soda machines they had there last year so now I constantly have to keep listening to some of my friends complain about it so that pretty much the only down side.

School Starts on Tuesday :(

It stinks that school starts... I was just barley starting to enjoy my summer (not that its been fun) its just I start realizing how cool summer is when school starts. And on Wedenesday me my mom and dad went to the open house at the school and the good thing is I know at least one person in each class. In one class called CTE - FACS, we get to cook work with computers and sew. And the teacher of that class, Mrs. Frei reminds me a lot of Steph.

Scout Camp

Again I'm going on another scout camp on friday and saturday and I'm not planning on getting burned this time... We're going to beaver to go camping up in the mountains. We're suposed to do some nature hike and look at bunch of animals n' stuff it's gonna be pretty fun.

When my dad took me fishing at Sand Hollow we didn't catch anything but the best thing came after it. We were driving down the street and randomly out of nowhere he says do you want to drive the Geo? And of course, I said yes so he let me drive it around for like an hour. I messed up a couple times and floored it once by accident... And, if you're wondering, I was wearing my seat belt...

2nd Degree Burn

I was at scout camp on Cedar Mountain, I was suposed to stay there a whole week and when we were 3 days into the camp I tripped and fell into this circular thing that was holding the fire in the fire pit and my elbow was on it so it burned through my skin to a really white layer of skin under that. I dont have any pictures except for my arm wrapped in gauz but my friend took a few pictures of the burn up in the Cedar City hospital so he's sending them to me soon.

New iPod!

This is kinda weird but last night I walk in the door at about 9:30 and my dad asks "Kirk, are any of your friends missing an iPod." I already knew none of my friends owned an iPod so I said no and he told be to come over to where he was on the couch I went over there and he showed me the iPod. I asked him "How'd you get it?" he said "I found it" then he just gave it to me. This morning I put it in the computer and looked at all the stuff inside. (The person that owned had put over 400 recorded parts of the 5th harry potter in it. Dad said I could keep it so I deleted it all and put my stuff on it. .

Lewis' Baptizm

Today on Saturday, July 5th, 2008 my nephew Lewis got baptized. It probbably was a really awesome experience for him because it was for me when i got baptized too. Steve did a great job at blessing him and after that we all went to Steve and Steph's house for dinner (which consisted of pizza, brownies, fruits, vegtables, and lemonade.) And Steve let me borrow his book: Diary of a Wimpy Kid which i've read a part of on the internet but i'm going to read it anyways.

Brother Brown

Last Sunday we got a new scout leader, his name's Brother Brown and he came with us to Baptizims for the Dead (I got Baptized for like 15 people) and after that we went to Golden Spoon (A guy in my ward owns it) and I asked brother Brown: "Can me and Kaden Ding Dong Ditch your house tonight?" We were just joking with him, but he said "Sure, my wife and kids are out of town do it as many times as you want but i'll catch you." So later that night we got my other friend Alex and we Door bell ditched his house but he didn't come after us. Couple more rings later we left for awhile to go light fireworks, but then we came back and did it again, he came out with a spot light and we ran. We didnt again but he caught us. Then he invited us in to watch a movie and we stayed there until midnight watching: Drillbit Taylor.

Week Long Vacation

I just got back from a week long vacation! It was awesome, we went to Tooele then to Casper to see my sisters baby get blessed and my other sister and her family came, then we went to Nebraska and drove through it and then we went to Colorado where we stayed in Manitou Springs and went on a cog railway up Pikes Peak, a really tall mountain, and the conducter told us to look out our windows at one time and we could see into Kansas. Then we went to Flagstaff, Arizona and stayed there over night and then the next day we went home.
