A New Look...and a strawberry bathing suit



Welcome to my refreshed format! For some time, my 'to do' list has included a few changes to the blog. But between being low on time (at night, when babies are sound asleep) and the know-how to make the updates, it has taken quite a while to cross this one off.

Thankfully, the 'know-how' part is something I don't have to worry much about as Shari from Little Blue Deer helps me. This is the second time she's helped me with format and design updates. I can't say enough great things about her. She is wonderful to work with -  so accommodating, patient and of course, very knowledgeable about all the technical aspects that elude me.

A few things left to do...an updated photo of Hubby and I being the primary one. Unfortunately, photos of us are few and far between.

Thank you Shari!

The photo is of limelight hydrangeas and strawberries...a strawberry bathing suit that is!

Dear Trina,

Little Margaret is going to love that photo when she's older, it's SO adorable!!

Well done on the new look - it doesn't matter how you get there, but that you get there - it's lovely!

Can't wait to see the new portrait of you and Mike.

The scenery is breathtaking as ever.

I love it! Why is it chubby legs are so darling on a 2 year old and not so much so on the 40-60 year old?
