two real life bloggy friends + my new look {come take a peek}

How sweet life is when a blog friendship turns into a real life friendship.



Kate {Nautical by Nature}, Danielle {Well, That's Just Fabulous} and I had a wonderfully fun Saturday afternoon. We noshed on chips and salsa, took a stroll under the beautiful California sun, and talked and laughed the evening away!

And FYI, they are both really as awesome as they seem on their blogs!

------------------------------------------

Now...

Do me a favor!

Click out of Google Reader for a second and come visit my blog.

See my amazing new look?! Danielle aka The Design Girl generously offered to update my look...and of course I accepted! She is my favorite blog designer out there {and I'm not just saying that because she's my friend either...she's awesome}!! Instead of working on something custom right now, I decided to do one of her pre-made templates! I thought they were all so cute, and I had trouble choosing which one to go with!

The pre-made templates are a great option for someone who wants to update their blog, but doesn't want to spend a ton of money. Plus, Danielle is offering the pre-made templates for $25 through the end of July! Be sure to check them out!
