the baby book is coming soon

Ok, so I haven't commited to the blog as much as I thought I would.  But that's ok.  I'm just starting out and it was suggested to me to take this slow so I don't over commit.  Which sounds weird to me because it's not like I have kids or anything much to keep up with!

What I do have is an amazing project started, almost finished.  I'll have to post pictures of "the baby book" soon!!!
A friend had a baby girl recently and I had all the supplies to create a baby book (the fifth one I've created).  I'm so proud of the way it's turning out.  I couldn't have picked better papers and ink colors!

Will post pics soon.....

balloonfest

I've always wanted to see a hot air balloon up close.  Some friends and I went to the Michigan Challenge Balloonfest in Howel Michigan yesterday.  Here are some of the pictures:

adding a photo

So far I'm trying to commit to doing something on the blog at least twice a week...three times if I can!
Today I added the navigation bar and the link to the karrieville facebook page.

And now I'd like to add a photo....

There!  I did it!  So I feel like I've accomplished a lot tonight so I'll be logging off now.  Good Night Artist/Internet Community!

taking action

This is a test to see if I can write a blog.
Of course I can write a blog but as I look at making a blog I get wrapped up in the how-to and the what do I write about.  I end up with more questions that then prevents me from taking action.


So this is me...taking action.  I'm post on the blog...my blog!


No really, I have questions:
what size should the header be created at?
how do I get a navigation bar in there?
how do I change the font on the post title?
Is this going to put the date and time of the post in there when I click on Publish?
Are all the fonts going to match?
Can I just email some of my favorite bloggers and ask them how they do it?
Maybe I need to take a class?


I bought "Blogging for Dummies".  It's the first time that I bought a Dummies book.  I'm not crazy about the name of these books.  I would have named them "_____________ for people that don't know much about the subject".  Ok, it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue but it's more accurate!
Anyway, not finding the answers in the book yet but I do have more to read.


And I'm taking action...that's the important part!
