Loves to Dance!


Mattina had her dance recital a few weeks ago. This is her good friend Navi. Mattina was so excited that she got to dance to a Hannah Montana song. I didn't even think she knew who Hannah Montana was... but, the other girls in class did, so she was excited too:) Both her grandma's made a long drive to watch the recital and we were so glad that they came. Mattina loves to dance, and sing. She loves her teacher Shelby and is excited she will be here next year to teach:)

Kinda Excited and Kinda Scared



Well, Matt and I have been pondering moving out of our home. Actually the spirit has been bugging us both about this for a while and we kept trying to ignore it. There are so many wonderful people here that we look up to, admire, and love, how can we leave??? About a week ago we got a definant answer and there was a huge sigh from me. Matt looked at me and said "we've known our answer for a while." I know - but...
So, here we go! The realtor took pictures today and put up a sign. Now comes the crazy work of packing, cleaning, and showing the house (with kids... should be interesting). I know it's the right decision, but so many memories, so many friends, so much work has gone into this home. Mattina on the other hand is EXCITED! When I was cleaning the kitchen and living area's for pictures she asked if we were moving tomorrow! Bla! I'm glad she is happy, that makes it easier for me to be optomistic too. :) It's exciting and scary all at the same time - That leap of faith often is I guess. So, here we go!

Tini's 5!!!



My Cute Tini! She is my princess:) She is amazing. Everyday I am so impressed with the things that she is learning and loves. Lately she has enjoyed the show "Word Girl" and she loves to try out new words. It's really fun to hear her use a word that doesn't really fit what she is talking about, but when asked what the word means she has the correct definition, just the wrong word. Mattina takes good care of Jake, they are great friends. She is excited for school and she is excited to move and make more friends. She can never have too many friends. I love to take her shopping one on one. We have fun together. I look forward to our girl shopping trips in the future.:)
