Hurray!!!! We got the house! Did you all hear me?!?!?
They accepted our offer! We are going to be together as a family again!
HURRAY!
So here are a few more pictures of the house :)
Enjoy! I know we will!



So I started this days ago and couldn't get pics to load I'm sorry people but I'm so tired I think I'm going to fall asleep on my hands. And I haven't even put away dinner yet... and I didn't even make it tonight!
Since I wrote last- I've gone crazy a few times Livvy got sick throwing up multiple times... I was by myself.
I got a loan for our new home.
I bashed my head... all by myself... and cut my forehead... (do you feel my pain Daddy?)
planted my front yard with flowers and bushes... myself. :) and then had them snowed on :(
Still trying to finish off my partylite stuff... taking longer than I thought.. my fault, my own, myself, my fault... sorry people
Spent the rest of the time dreaming about moving or sleeping... it's always a toss up :)
Anyway, I love ya and have a good night

I hadn't planned on this

Really I hadn't, I've come across so many wonderful and beautiful posts and tributes to President Hinckley our beloved Prophet that I really felt that mine was not necessary. :) As I read Sherry's post about our Prophet and her heart felt honest feelings. It really helped me express mine as I began responding to her. So I nixed the comment sorry Sher :) but here are my feelings too.

I know how you feel :)
Every post has expressed great love and admiration for our prophet and I echo that in every strain. I remember President Hinckley from conferences long before he became the prophet... not necessarily the words:) but I always loved listening to him :) We have to remember that one of the reasons he helped us so much is because he was our PROPHET, and he gave us the words that the Lord gave to him, and the Lord placed him here for us in this day to feed us and help us in our need. But we must also remember that the Lord will not abandon his people, He was not taken from us but taken back to the Lord and the Lord will provide for our heartache, and give us a prophet to lead us through the coming days of trial.
And thankfully we will always have President Gordon B. Hinckley's inspired words and guidance to each of us as reminders of his love and inspiration, compassion and strength. Thank you President Hinckley for so often feeding the very part of my soul that was in pain or struggling.

Yes people I was joking!

So yeah the $400,000 home is gorgeous but no I can not afford it!!! So I thought I'd post a picture of the house we're actually looking at :) We love it! It's not as big as the other one :) but it's bigger than our current one :) It's about 2800 sq ft and it's really a gorgeous home that has virtually everything we've been looking for! Amazing I know :)
It's just a picture of the front, I didn't bring my camera when we went through it, but it's got 4 bedrooms and a big bonus room upstairs that will probably become a combined little girls room :) laundry room, eat-in kitchen, Dining room, 3.5 bathrooms, Living room with a fireplace, a Family/media/play room, 2 decks
Ofcourse, It's not completely perfect, but it's pretty great.

So ... yeah.

Still here still trying to sell the house and still not quite successful :) But we are going to Arkansas anyway and going to look at houses so this should be interesting :)
I tried to take a little video of Layna singing A Child's Prayer the other day she sat down to clean up one of her many messes and just randomly started singing it with the cutest words and everything... of course made up :) but about half way through she figured out what I was doing and it became this huge performance with dancing and twirling around the living room, and then when she was done you couldn't hear a word of the song... which is what got me excited to begin with anyway :( Oh well.
She's still adorable.
So instead here's my 2 most recent videos one is Phoebe just being cute, She is quite the mothering type :)
and yes she did have a clip in her hair at one time! Just not at that moment :)
And the last is Layna singing for her daddy :)
