Ogre Days

Just a quickie. Yesterday I was at a baptism and afterward one of the girls there was telling her mom that I am her Achievement Days leader. Except this was in Spanish, so it's called "Dias de logros". However she pronounced it Dia del Ogro. Made me smile. "Dia del ogro" literally translates day of the ogre. That could get those rumors about Mormons having horns started again, eh? If you're not Mormon, you might want to look up Achievement Days in all caps in my handy dandy Big Fat Mormon Terminology Guide there on the sidebar. While you're at it look up Ward Clerks and Relief Society and Primary in all caps also so you don't have to go back in a week or so and look those up too. That's when the next joke should be over and I can talk about it.

Oooh! You've got me curious about the "next joke."

That's so cute! I can only imagine the mistakes I'd make if I tried to speak in Spanish. The only thing I got out of Spanish class is a husband, but he's a good one so all is well.

I can imagine a lot of fun activities with an ogre theme, though that would probably work better for the scouts than the achievement day girls.

This is cute!

I'm pretty sure we participated in day of the ogre back when my son was in cub scouts...but maybe that was just me.
