Because of Provo City laws and restrictions on who can sell alcohol to people, I have to do a lot of the alcohol sales at Macey's. I've seen a good deal of things that people try to use as an ID. And I've had to turn down a bunch of people because they didn't have a valid U.S. Government issued ID that we could use. Yesterday, I got a new one though. The person was from some Asian country, and just kind of looked like they could just barely get by with the English that they knew. I asked for ID for the two cans of beer she was trying to buy. I never expected to have someone hand me their BYU identification card so that they can buy beer. But that's what happened. I'm hoping that I can get someone to hand me their temple recommend for their ID.

Judge not. I'm sure she was just buying it so she could make beer-batter onion rings. [wink][wink]. Not everyone at BYU is LDS so it really isn't that surprising. Now when you get someone IDing with their temple recommend, I wanna hear about it!

Well that's what we decided afterward -- that it was likely just for some recipe that the alcohol was going to be burned off anyway. Frankly, I don't care. But it was just funny that they tried to use their BYU ID. I got a kick out of it anyway.

Deathly Hallows A box came in the mail on Saturday...it contained TWO copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows . One for me (happy birthday me from Chad) and one for Chad. I'm about 1/4 of the way through it. Do YOU have your copy?!? It's also officially my most hated time of year. Camping is over and it's HOT and even in the evenings it doesn't cool down much below 70 degrees. I can't wait for October, the best month of the year.

Those poor Jehovah’s witnesses showed up at the door here again . They come here every few months or so. They rang the doorbell and my father-in-law (Craig) answered it. They asked if he'd like to talk about religion and he invited them in and said he'd love to. To make a long story short, he asked what makes the Jehovah's Whitnesses special and what was their "compelling doctrine". Their response was "well, we read the bible." Craig- "So do the Baptists, Catholics, and Mormons..... so what is special about your church" JW's- "we belive in Jesus Christ" Craig- "so do all of the Christians.... " JW's- "We preach the gospel" Craig- "Um... that still isn't original. Tell me why I should listen to you over anyone else" JW's- "Umm... I don't know..." Craig- "Well I'll tell you what the Mormon's compelling doctrine is that makes us different from everyone: We have ...

potty training done

Kiera is 100% in "tinkling" in her potty for 5 days now (except at night). I'd say potty training is done. I do have to say though that the transition from little potty to big potty was difficult (it didn’t help that Lydia was sick either). She would tinkle a tiny bit and then ask to go again 5-10 mins later all day long! Finally I was trying to make dinner and after being interrupted twice by her asking me to go (meanwhile my sick little Lydia cries hard when I leave the room with Kiera and if I bring her with she rolls around our nasty bathroom floor). So she came up and asked again “tinkles, mommy!” So I broke down and busted out the little potty and put her in front of the TV on it. I then picked up Lydia and nursed the poor little thing to sleep. Kiera tinkled quite and bit and was quite pleased with her self and pulled out the tray beneath the potty that holds the tinkles before I could stop her (I don’t run very fast when I’m holding a sleeping baby). Of cour...
