Change is Good

Well…whaddya think?  After sticking with those whole blogging thing for a year and a half, I thought it was time to freshen things up a bit!  A little face-lift if you will.  I hope you like it…and I hope you can see it.  I’ve been back and forth with a few things trying to get it all redirected and working properly but I think we’re good to go.  As you’re scrolling, if you notice a picture that isn’t showing up, or something that doesn’t load properly, please let me know.

I’ve added a few pages up top so click around and check it all out.  Via the cute little icons on the right, you can now link to my facebook account  (if you’re my friend – if not, send me a request!), check out my pinterest pins (follow me! I’ll follow you back!), shoot me an email, or subscribe to my RSS feed.  Everything is still a work in progress but I’m getting there!

And because I know what you all really come here to see…here you go – boots and all!

For those that are curious, I switched over from a wordpress.com site to a self-hosted wordpress site through GoDaddy.  I still can’t figure out what Danica Patrick has to do with hosting websites, but I’ve been super impressed with GoDaddy so far.  They have on-call support 24/7 and every person I’ve talked to (and I’ve talked to more than a few!) has been super nice and so helpful.  Go GoDaddy!  🙂

As for the new look, a BIG thank you to Erin at Designer Blogs. This is actually a pre-made WordPress template that she doctored up a bit for me.  I love the fresh look, the subtle “brick road” in the background and the clean lines. She was fantastic to work with and I can’t say enough good things!

Maxwell is excited about the new look too…can’t you tell?!  🙂

Thinking about how to keep things interesting around here – anything outside of Maxwell that you want to see more of? learn more about? tell me in the comments!

Here’s to a new year and a new start…for everyone!  🙂
