Chopsticks and I Pods

Hooray for Aunt Christina! That is what R would say if she knew how. They had so much fun together while she was here. R is still looking around the house for her now the she has been gone for a week.
While showing Christina around town, I actually went downtown for the first time other than to go to J's workplace and it is a pretty cool area after all. I say after all because my city doesn't have the greatest reputation in Utah. But having lived in both Salt Lake City and here I must say that I don't feel any less safe here and there are cool places to eat and shop just not as many as in Salt Lake City. Also the bums are much friendlier. One of them told Christina and I we made the world a more beautiful place. Isn't that sweet? Maybe not? We found this great sushi place on 25th street that we frequented. We also went to Salt Lake City for a day so Christina could go to my favorite salon (Lunatic Fringe, they are awesome), have lunch and visit a friend who we grew up with who goes to LDS Business College.
R loves I pods apparently. She kept using Christina's, she would put the earphone up to her ear and bob her head up and down. She has also become obsessed with being outside and looking at trees, animals, bugs and whatever else is around. She picks out her own clothes and shoes now.
