A new facelift....:)

Blogging has definitely become a hobby for me these days. I love writing our own stories about our family's adventures and Lucas' many exciting feats to share with those we don't see every day. Which seems to be the way of life for most of us out there. It would be great if we saw every member of our family and all of our friends that we have made from every facet of life each and every day, BUT...When you are working and raising a family, time is a precious gift that I so wish we had more of! So you add just a little distance between family and friends and it makes it even harder. But we love you all and that is why I wanted to do this from the get go :)

I have found so many other blogs out there that were started for this same simple reason... To keep in touch with those that we love. I have a few friends who are also new to this blogging adventure who I absolutely love to keep up with and this is such a great way to do it. It is so much fun to hear about their daily adventures, see pictures of how their families are growing and changing, laugh with their funny stories, and even cry with the sad ones. Blogging really is fantastic! You should try it!!!

But aside from them I have also found that there is a HUGE community of people out there with so many great stories to share for the same reason the rest of us are here. I find myself keeping up with so many. What is going on in there lives, the fun adventures they have with their families and friends, and saying prayers when needed for those who are going through difficult times! :) ...And to think that many of these are complete strangers... Kinda cool? I think so! God works in mysterious ways sometimes.... ;)

To me blogging is like keeping a journal but even better since you have pictures....kinda like scrapbooking in that sense, but you get the picture :) So I have decided to try to update the motif to reflect that. I hope you like it! I will have more stories to share soon, need to get some pics off of the camera, maybe this evening.

Until then!!!! Have a fantastic day and remember-
"truly living your life is not about the number of breaths you take but the number of moments that take your breath away! :) "

I love the new face lift! Very cute...where did you find the background?

Are you planning a big party or a small party for Lucas? What is he getting for the special day?
