Unless you’re viewing posts exclusively via email or reader, you’ve probably noticed the new blog design this week. Is it working for you? Anything wonky? I’m not a web designer by any stretch of the imagination, so let me know if anything seems “off” or broken.
The Sky Rockets won a close one. Who knew that 8U girls softball could be so exciting? As for Sarah Kate, she was thrown out once and struck out once. Maybe that’ll bring her back down to earth. 🙂
My sister and her kids are visiting for the weekend for their spring break and weather is supposed to be beautiful. Beach Day Redux!
Nathan’s birthday is Tuesday, and I had absolutely nothing planned until, um, yesterday. When Sarah Kate turned two we had a “grandparent” party but back then it was a day trip for everyone. We weren’t going to do anything until my sister decided to stay an extra day. So…I ordered a Publix cake and I’ll pick up some Elmo plates and such. Voilá! Instant party.
Sarah Kate has been getting up at 5:30 every morning for the past week or so, and I have no idea why. She is up, dressed, and fed before I get up. If I didn’t have a pretty vivid recollection of giving birth to her, I’d wonder if she was really my child.
My faux niece is now my sister. 🙂 My friend AnnMarie’s daughter came south to attend college at my alma mater. Since it’s a long way from Alabama to Massachusetts, she sometimes visits us on weekends when her friends are going home. We call her our faux niece. Well…Hannah was initiated into my sorority this week, so now she’s my sister, too!
Are you a blogger interested in being “tagged” for the 11 Things meme? My friend Donna of Beating Limitations tagged me (like 2+ weeks ago – I’m a total slacker); I’ll be publishing my 11 Things post next week, and I’d love to tag you if you’re interested! Leave a comment or email me.
Have a great weekend!

Happy Birthday to Nathan. My sweet baby girl turns 2 in 2 weeks. I still laugh at the thought that Lacey and Nathan were actually due on the same day. My middle daughter turns 7 on Sunday. My wedding anniversary is also next week. Hard to believe it’s been 15 years, but the even crazier part is my husband and I have been together since I was 16, which comes out to 23 yrs. What an amazing journey we have been on. I am so thankful for having a wonderful Mr. Kelley and I am so glad I found your blog many months ago. I also love the new design and the pictures of Sarah Kate, Nathan, and Mr. Andi.

Loving the new design!! The new addes color puts some nice warmth into the page and it all looks so great! I am amazed at how you do any of it. I just use a simple template…but I aspire to be like you someday. 🙂
I hate to admit, I don’t know what the 11 Things is, but it sounds fun!
Marcy says
I forgot to say Happy Birthday (almost) to your little man!

The new site looks great! I noticed it earlier in the week but didn’t get a chance to comment.
Hope your having a wonderful weekend with family!
