I have a dream

I absolutly love ABBA! I think they are amazing! I turn up the stereo way loud and the kids and I sing along to ABBA! The kids expecially love Chicatita!! But we cant listen to it when we are with daddy cause he doesnt like it....:(
This is my favorite song right now! Its off of the Mama mia sound track!

"I have a dream"

I have a dream, a song to sing,
to help me cope with anything,
if you see the wonder of a fairy tale,
you can take the future even if you fail,
I believe in angels
something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
when I know the time is right for me
Ill cross the stream- i have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy
to help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
pushing through the darkness still another mile
i beleive in angels
something good in everything i see
I beleive in angels
when i know the time is right for me
Ill cross the stream- i have a dream
Ill cross the stream- i have a dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
to help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I beleive in angels
something good in everything i see
I beleive in angels
When I know the time is right for me
Ill cross the stream- I have a dream
Ill cross the stream- I have a dream

our first HOUSE!

I have some good news and some bad news. Bad news mostly for my lovely 6th ward family and good news for my little family. We have moved onto the next big step in life! We just bought our first home! We have been looking and trying to buy a house for 3-4 years now! And finally it is our time! We are so blessed! Thank you Lord! I am so glad we waited till now to buy! It is a great buyers market! There are alot of great first time home buyer incentives! First we were approved for the Own in Ogden grant and we got the full 5000 dollars that went towards our down payment! 2nd and best of all we will get 8000 dollars for being first time home buyers from the government that is FREE MONEY! It's pretty exciting!:D

The bad thing about it, and whenever I think about it or talk about it I get teary (so I'll be breif), is that we will be moving out of our lovely 6th ward. We will be in 7th ward now and the boundaries are sooo close! It's frustrating! But we will be able to keep in touch with everyone, we arent moving out of town!! And I know there are great people everywhere that we will be able to love just as much! 7th ward will be good to us I'm sure!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stay in touch!! We will be just down the street from the Holmes and the Larose's!! I'm still gonna be in BUNCO and involved in PTA! I'm not going far! Lets still hang out, I'm going to need the support with moving and I need friends in this time of my life!

Lainee's first lost tooth!

Lainee has had a wiggly tooth now for about a month and for the past few days it has just been hanging by a string practically! We finally were able to get it out! We tied a string around it and I had her pull it. She said it hurt too much and that she wanted me to take the string off soooo I pretended to take the string off and I just grabbed the tooth and pulled it out! It came out so easy and she said It didn't even hurt! She was sooo excited! We put it under her pillow and thankfully remembered to play the tooth fairy! (didnt want to have what happened to Mayme and Tally!) She was happy to get 2 quarters and didnt complain this time. "BUT MOM! TALMADGE GETS A DOLLAR!" haha!!

I just love going through these firsts! They are so exciting! Childhood is so priceless! You have to make it great for the kids!!!

Tu Tu's!!!

I was "roped in" according to KoriAnn to make these adorable Tu Tu's. My Friend is addicted to watching studio 5 and they featured these easy to make Tu Tu's a while ago and we finally got around to making them! They were soooo easy! Although a sewing machine would have been great! (cant find mine....) They turned out sooo adorable! I know Lainee loves hers and the little girl that KoriAnns babysits will love hers!!

We couldn't help but put it on the boys tho! Poor Kado and Cameron were our models for the Tu Tu's!! so cute! and we couldnt have done it with out Jeremiahs permission for Cam! hehehe!

Kado saying cheese! sooo cute!

I know this isnt safe but I had to take a quick pic! He climbed in himself!! I think he's cute!!

This is Kado winking at me! he will get it eventually but untill then! ITS SO CUTE!

Grandma and Grandpa!

I am so happy that my inlaws are living just down the street from us now! They retired to thier home in the Philippines and got bored and missed the grandkids so decided to pick up and move to Utah! They lived with us for a couple months and we were able to spend the holidays with them! It was great!

Now they have thier own place that they are renting just down the street! They got jobs and are enjoying the grandkids alot! They babysit alot! and they take them overnight every friday night! (except Kado, he's too young). The kids just love having them here and they are spoiled rotten! It's a wonderful help to Drew and I also!

We love them and are so greatful for their wonderful generosity!

UH OH!

This heres a vidyo of Kado sayin "uh oh" Tis the cutest thing i ever saw!;)
