a new year, a new look and wishes
We’ve always found the new year a great launching pad to hit the reset button. Usually we do an overhaul in the home, cleaning closets, filing papers, and re-arranging furniture. But this year we were inspired to re-design the blog.
With inspiration from a few of our favourite artists like the late Margaret Kilgallen, and sites like reformschoolrules.com, I did the graphics and Earl sprinkled his magic coding to make it all happen. We hope you like it!
Along with our new look, we have some fresh new plans here this year and hope you'll stick around so we can share them with you! Wishing only good things for you in 2009!
