just be blogged!

hey everyone! hope you found your way over here okay. please update your bookmarks. this is the new home of my blog! i have been working for hours and hours to get this thing up and running. with the help of theresa stanton, my brother, and several nerdy wordpress friends, we coded it to life.

at the same time, i worked on updating my website with new photos, new information, updated branding, AND “pop up video-ish” notes on any photo that i felt had a story behind it. let me know what you think of that-it was a crazy idea i had at 1:30am a few nights ago.

so-to help you get used to things over here, i have a list of new and old to get you started.

old: check it is down at the bottom, but its still here! i will continue to update it regularly. all of the archives from my old blog were transferred over here. links up top are the same i had on typepad. ME.

new: big photos, pretty stuff, and more pretty stuff. when i respond to a comment it is now highlighted in turquoise. a search feature, also on the bottom of the page. that sweet flash header! i was so proud i made that all by myself…and an email me link.

let me know if there is anything funky that you notice going on here, and what you think about all the changes. i have to go rest this weary old body of mine.

OH it also happens to be someone’s birthday today. go over and shower her with birthday love! (its her last birthday before the big three oh!)

  1. LOVE it!!! All your hard work and lack of sleep was worth the finished product!! You and your “helpmates”
    did a terrific job. I can tell by the comments everyone agrees…..You should sleep well tonight,you think???

    Happy Birthday to my Emily!!! Hope you girls had fun celebrating today….And don’t fret about getting older. Every year just adds more seasoning to the soul so it’s a good thing.And besides almost 30 looks so good on you. (As 31 and 1/2 looks on MY baby girl) Never underestimate the power of sugar and spice!!!!

  2. Hi Tara,

    New blog looks great! Love the larger images! I’m having a problem with your site though…and I actually had the same problem a few days ago and thought it was just temporary so didn’t say anything at the time, but it’s still happening so thought I should pipe up! I can’t seem to see any of your galleries (i.e. babies, kids, teens, etc.). I get the message about how to speed it up, using the arrow keys, but no images ever appear. I’m on a mac and using safari, if that helps. Hmmm, ok, just tried it in Firefox and it works fine…must be a safari issue…or something weird on just my computer! Anyway, fyi, just in case it helps!!!

    Take care (and get some sleep!)
    Holly
