I have an update to this thread.

Last weekend was the Scottish Festival and Highland Games at Thanksgiving point in Lehi Utah. I hosted the MacGillivray clan booth. My mother-in-law, school teacher off for the summer and bored, decided she would help me get everything there. She came and got my daughter on Saturday and watched her for a few hours. She was honestly surprised at how "Big a deal" it was. It was in the paper, and on the news, and she with out going in to the actual festival saw hundreds of men in kilts. The fall out from this is that now she is getting my son at least one shirt to match his new kilt, but she is telling me I need to wear shorts under my kilt. Just for the record here, the Sunday after the festival I wore my kilt to my in laws. I guess she did not like how I sat on the couch or something. But now its I should do the kilt thing this way, my son should wear a certain shirt with his. I do not know which I prefered her disdain, and contempt, or her trying to take over this aspect of my life.
