I know, I know, no one likes change. But I’d had my last design in various color schemes for a year and I was tired. I’m excited about this one for several reasons. For one, I like the new color scheme. It feels breezy and springy. And also? That up there — that’s my new purse!
The credit for the purse and coffee mug goes to Steve Novak of Novak Illustration. And the template changes were all Cathy at Desperately Seeking WordPress. I love what she did with the page. Basically I just put the header together and found the wallpaper.
I’ve been scarce around these here parts today because my mom is in town. But let me leave you with a few kid-isms. This evening we were playing a card game. I jokingly told my son that if he beat me, I’d have to give him a noogie. A few seconds passed, and my 3-year-old piped up in sudden realization, “Mom! MOM! Noogie and boogie RHYME!”
Alrightythen!
Then yesterday we were riding along in the car, and my 3-year-old was talking about her friends at school and she declared, “I love Megan. She’s nice.”
To which her 6-year-old sister replied, “Well. You CAN’T love her as much as Grammie and God.”
I guess I know the pecking order around here.
Finally, we made a trip to WalMart today to buy new bikes for the girls. They both rode them right up to the cash register and then out to the car. It was quite a spectacle. Later we were at the sporting goods store purchasing a gift for my son when R piped up from beside the register, “I love my new bike!”
“I’m so glad,” I replied.
Then she continued in her animated little 3-year-old voice, “It’s PRECIOUS and I LOVE it!”
The clerk behind the counter got a good chuckle at that, as did her mother and grandmother.
And that’s all I got. Have a great weekend!
Really great new look! Refreshing! This change is easy to embrace! 🙂
Love love love the new look! Great colors and that purse… so pretty. Good job with the spring cleaning.
I love that you let your girls ride their bikes to the checkout. What a fun image. Happy weekend!
