Blog Designs

I've mentioned before that I design for Designer Blogs. I love it...its so fun. Anyway, I've been creating "Premades" which are blog designs that are already done that we customize with your own photos and text, and you can add any other things to your blog you want, without having to wait in the queue! And the cost is a lot less than the totally custom designs. We are coming out with new designs all the time and there is a lot of variety to fit any taste.

And just for all of you who read our blog, I'm offering 10% off any premade order! Just click the cute little button below, choose the design you'd like and then on the order form put in the referral question that you came from my personal blog. This is a spankin' deal...its so fun to have a new design for your little place on the web, just like buying a new outfit! And the premades are such an economical option. Spread the news! And if you have any suggestions of designs, ie color schemes, themes, etc. that you'd like to see, please leave them in the comments and I'll put something together and add it to our premade inventory. So go ahead...treat yourself to a new little outfit for your place on the web by clicking the button below! And while you are at it, grab the button code on the sidebar for your blog.

Last Chance Plea!

Hello Friends and Family!

I know you are probably getting really sick of me. But I just wanted to make a last chance plea for the Peace of Mind Fund! Some of you have already donated and I sooo appreciate it...more than you know! I really don't want anyone to feel pressured...but if you can spare that $5 or so it would really help add up to helping my friend Natalie get the peace of mind she so desperately needs. Take it from someone who knows what she is going through...it will be such a blessing to be able to monitor the baby. If you haven't been to the blog yet that tells in more detail what we are trying to do I'd invite you to head on over there: http://www.peaceofmindfund.blogspot.com

We haven't met our goal yet and we don't have a lot of time left! Here are the cute kids from the Little Rascals backing us up...lol...just substitute "We need to build a new clubhouse" with "We need to send Natalie to Louisiana!"

Honoring Julie and Alexis' TV debut!

Julie Williams is an amazing earthly angel and deserves this recognition and so much more! Alexis made her TV debut also! I'm such a proud mommy. :) What a perfect way to celebrate Alexis' 6 month angelversary.

6 months

We have so much going on right now that I can't really post a very long post but I couldn't let today get away from me without acknowledging that it was exactly 6 months ago today that we help our angel in our arms. Wow...6 months. That sounds like so long but not at the same time. Time is so strange sometimes. We miss her more than ever. We love you Lexi and hope you will visit us often!

Its been too long

First of all...Happy Independence Day! Do you like my festive blog design? I did it myself, designing for a blog design company (read below). Thank you to all those past and present who have fought for our freedom. May we all live in such a way to deserve it and give back.

Wow...its been a while since I've updated here! I've been super busy designing for a blog design company, check it out: Designer Blogs and working on The Peace of Mind Fund/Giveaways

And thats not all...we've been busy getting our house on the market to sell! If you are interested or know anyone interested please let us know. Please tell all your friends too. We REALLY need to sell it quickly to take advantage of another opportunity. We are willing to rent it too. You can see picture here. Click "Property Tour" to see lots of pictures!

Plus, we've had family reunions on both of our sides right in a row! Just got back from one today. And even before that we went to Cali for my dad's retirement party. Wow...it has been a while hasn't it?

And most important of all it was Alexis' 5 month angelversary June 15th. I'm sad that I didn't post on that day. It doesn't mean that we've forgotten...we will never forget. And it hasn't really gotten any easier, we just have good days and bad days. Life really is so hard. I'm just trying to keep my head above water.

Here are some pictures of our latest adventures and I promise to post more details later. :) They are in order of occurrence.

At Alexis' grave Memorial Day weekend. We miss her. :(

Visiting my Grandpa's grave on Memorial Day.

At my dad's retirement party...Zach gave my nephew Cannon a taste of this tart smoothie and he made the funniest pucker face! :) lol

All the siblings were able to be there, and some inlaws. It was a great night to honor my wonderful father. He has helped so many, there were A LOT of people there. My dad didn't want us to do the party because he was uncomfortable with the attention but we told him he didn't have a choice. :)

Setting up my little "store" for my sisters to buy my bows! :)

Zach's dad's family reunion at Bryce Canyon

Natural Bridge at Bryce Canyon, the whole park is beautiful! It was my first time there.

This is where we stayed, a little log cabin! It was so fun!

Archery at the Reid Ranch for my mom's side family reunion!


My first fishing experience that I can actually remember...I really really wanted to catch something but I didn't. :(

Making smores by the campfire...yummy!
