American Idol...how we heart thee.

While yes, the Talamantez home is so happy that Kris has been crowned the winner of AI 2009, my personal favorite was the bikini face off. Literally moments prior to this happening I was defending AI's newest judge to hubs (who refers to her as the "hater") and nonchalantly commented, "And seriously, she's almost forty...her body rocks."

When low and behold she unzips her dress is the most classy, wardrobe malfunction way. Regardless, I really like Kris...and I love Kara. Oh, and I think Paula is a W-I-T-C-H....she did not cheer for Kris. I know she is an Adam lover, but show some respect for your own program.

Enough Idol nonsense.

A New Day

I must say, 2008 was a VERY fantastic year for me and my family. Despite the constant downer that the news was, the Talamantez's had a great time. Favorite memories for us.....Ralph and I became so much closer and much more of a team, Gia turned two, Nina got married, a new house, a promotion, job share, we spent Christmas in Texas...FANTASTIC!

So here we are in 2009 and I am so excited about the fun times ahead. We wrote out our New Year's resolutions at dinner the other night and a few of them include 13.1 on 3/15, Gia to sleep through the night (Ralph and I really dictated that one), and to spend more time together as a family....date nights, family game nights, etc.

We feel so blessed to have our lives. I hope that your new one starts off well and that you have many blessings in your lives!
