MOVING... Ahhh

Well, on this night when I should be in bed I find myself not able to sleep, so I decide to blog instead... hmm. Well I am going to get better at this whole blogging thing so I can better keep up with life's events and keep everyone better informed about us :)

So we are moving to Star Valley! We are pretty excited about it, I have a job opportunity that makes pretty good money and I will only be away from Tamina for 2 hours a day. I really can't beat that because Tamina is my first priority. We are pretty excited about the thought of getting ourselves out of our debts and moving on with life in a better financially stable way. It will take time of course, but we will be able to start seeing results faster then where we are at right now, so that makes us pretty happy. We really feel like this is the right move to where we need to be next as a family. It took some time and convincing, but I guess when you feel that peace of mind (even when there is a lot of controversy and craziness going on around you) you can't deny it and you better follow, cause the Lord knows better then we do.

Tamina has been doing awesome with everything going on, and her world pretty much getting changed drastically. She is a bit more loving and a bit more clingy to me, but she is still the sweetest little angel. I don't know what I would do without her and Brandon they are my strength and my rock when I feel I am going to go crazy or completely fall apart. I am also thankful for wonderful friends and family.

I apologize for the many pictures to come and the catching up, that is why I need to do better, and I will do better. But here are a few highlights of our summer up until now.

 This picture I just happened to capture and I love it. She has such a cute personality. Oh and Yay for summer hats :)

Now this is what happens when you give this girl a graham cracker with icing, hahaha, she licks all the icing off the best she can then leaves the graham cracker.

 Now these two pictures are what happens when she learns how to say the word dance and then hears some music. A most precious sight indeed.

 She loves the park and she loved it when I finally gave in and just let her go down the slide by herself.

 She got a fish :) She loves her 'fishy' (that is what his name is) In the picture above she is blowing him kisses goodnight. Then in the picture below she was wanting to pet him and wave night night. Lol, this little girl is so full of love for anyone and anything.

Yay for the Carousal being open. She wasn't sure what to think about it at first, but then after the first time she LOVED it. She would yell yah yah as we went around. 

This is us going on the stake Temple Walk. It was a beautiful morning and my camera ran out of battery so I wasn't able to take any other pictures, but it was such a neat experience. I was able to make it 5.5 miles pushing a stroller and up and down hills. It was awesome to be able to point out the temple and explain to Tamina how important it is (although I know she doesn't understand all I say just yet) She was a trooper and I am so thankful the that opportunity to do that with her. 

So I won't post until I get all settled again up at my moms house cause everything here is pretty much all crazy anyway. I am thankful for so much and though I feel so overwhelmed and unsure of things at times, I will just say this. I know the Lord knows our sorrows, our heart aches, our joy, our pain, our insecurities and so much more, but please never loose hope. He does hear and answer our prayers and although it may take more trials to get us to where we are wanting to be and where the Lord knows we are supposed to be, it will be worth it in the end when he says "welcome home my dear one" I will miss so much about Rexburg, believe it or not I will even miss my teaching calling on Sunday because I have learned so much, but we are onward to where the Lord needs us next. It's kind of crazy how life works, but I know he is listening to me, I just pray I am doing the best I can with what he has given me.
