I'm so used to every weekend being busy. Going somewhere. Doing something. Seeing someone. But today, It's just a plain old saturday. Just sitting around, getting homework done, doing chores, not getting out of bed until 10:30, reading, and just relaxing.
I really wish there was snow. Snow just kind of makes winter feel more like winter. Minnesota has been acting so weird lately. One day it's snowing like crazy, and the next it's almost forty degrees!
I caught my brother and his friends wearing goggles and running around with hockey sticks and baseball bats. haha :)
I decided to re-design my blog. I had it as a holiday design before, and some of you may have seen the two day orange and teal design I had up. But I think this new one will stay up for a while. (at least I hope so). I really like the colors (blue and yellow) and I'm loving the fonts, and the ice skates picture for the about me button on my sidebar. (note: I use picnik to make blog headers and buttons. I've gotten very bored of it's fonts, so every time I try to make a new header it takes me forever to figure out what I like.)
So what do you think of it? :)
I also wanted to remind you guys that my side bar is getting pretty lonely without more sponsors! Right now I have three, and I would love to get more! What I do for spots on my sidebar is just doing a button swap. You can keep your button on my blog for as long as you like, as long as you'll put my button on your sidebar! Feel free to just grab my button on my sidebar! I have 103 followers now (eek!) so I'm sure if you put your button on my sidebar you'll get more traffic. Especially if your blog is smaller. Just email me!
It's such a beautiful day. :)
Oh, and before I forget..I want to have a 100 follower giveaway! So if any of you would want to sponsor just go ahead and shoot me an email! I'm pretty much open to anything. :) Oh, and if you do decide to sponsor my giveaway you get to have your button on my sidebar for two whole months! :)
Hope you all have a great rest of your weekend! :)
I love the second picture! The sun flare is awesome :)
ReplyDeletei ♥ your new design! Especially the ice skates, on the sidebar...love! And I would love to have a button swap, but right now, I am in the middle of getting a button made and of having my blog redesigned..so it's going to have to wait a bit. :)
ReplyDeleteWould you like to do another button swap? I'd love to! The last picture is awesome! ;)
ReplyDeleteSimple saturdays are the best- nothing beats lounging around and especially sleeping in! That picture of your little brother made me smile... kids being kids :)
ReplyDeleteLoving both those pictures :)
ReplyDeleteI'd totally do a button swap with you, but sadly, I still haven't learned how to make buttons :( What program do you suggest, Ali? Maybe you could give me some pointers? I'd really appreciate it!
@JesusChickWell, I use picnik to make the actual button itself. Once I'm done with that I go to imgur.com and use their direct link and use a certain code to use for my button. For a much easier to understand tutorial go to carlotta's post: http://www.pastorsgirlsponderings.com/2010/11/blog-buttons-tutorial.html. It's way easier to understand, and that's exactly what I use and do. :)
ReplyDeleteCute girly!! Love your pictures! And dont worry, I read every post I just dont comment all the time. I would totally be willing to do a button switch! I just have to make a button :) haha let me know if you'd be interested!
ReplyDeleteahhh i know what you mean about the weather being really weird,it's been like that here in Nebraska too! :P The sun in the 2nd pic is really awesome :) I'd love to button swap with you!!
ReplyDeleteoh and p.s. one more thing,i really love your new design :) Esp. the ice skate picture!!
Guess the weather's been acting up all over the place. In Ny it snowed once in October and has been super warm, Button swapping is cool! Thanks for swapping with me Ali.
