New Look

"Same great Taste!". :-) I change my blog OFTEN. If you've followed me a while you know this. I love change...everything. Even furniture. Today we traded my sister and brother-in-law our sectional for their sofa and bought an oversized/overstuffed recliner to match it. SOOOO much more room in this teenie weenie single wide we call home! So pleased! I am up late/early because pretty much it is a sauna in our house. That's another thing mobile homes are good for..they're either TOO hot or TOO cold. We enjoyed near 90-95 degree weather over the weekend and had put ONE window unit A/C in a week ago and it just wasn't cutting it. It was around 88 in here ALL DAY!

We are gonna try to invest in a portable A/C in the next couple weeks, to our luck/surprise it's gonna cool back down this week and next Saturday there's a possibility for SNOW...dun dun dunnnn. Only in KY! My hubby and I spent the day out, we ate together and went and picked up our recliner and traded out furniture. The evening was spent winding down and relaxing when my hubby's sister and brother-in-law stopped by for their now regular weekend visits. We had pizza and went out and just hung out till about 8:30. Tomorrow MY sister and I plan on exercising to the Biggest Looser "Last Chance Workout" DVD! I'm kinda excited :)

I hope you guys enjoy my blog and the readings and the photos. I usually take time out here and there to mention how awesome each and every one of you are. My blog visiting is a little scarce these days because we are SO DANG BUSY! But thanks for continuing to stop by and comment, especially my "regulars" ;) you always put a smile across my face!

Love the new look! and always love reading...I hope you enjoy your cooler weather.. We have central air but my family complains that I am a misery and will not let them turn the air cooler.. Hey ! IT is Texas, heat lasts a long time.. and electricity is expensive!

Blog looks great! I love change, too. I was itching for something so recently rearranged my office space a little to satisfy it. ;) Remember the crazy KY weather well. TN isn't too different. Stay cool - or warm. LOL! Great shots, Natalie!

These are all great photos! I absolutely love the truck rocker. My 4 year old would go nuts over that.

Such beautiful bokeh in that second shot; plus the subject is pretty cute, too! Lovely photos!

Ok, so I'm only what, almost a day late??? :)

Love the new look! Very clean and easy to look at! Oh, you meant your blog??? lol! Just kidding -- I really do like your blog makeover. :)

Isn't "new" furniture great??? And I hear you on the a/c -- the first day we needed to turn it on just long enough to cool the apt so we could sleep-- we discovered it "broke" during the winter and had to call the maintenance guys to come fix it... really??? lol! Oh, and my folks have a portable a/c unit and *LOVE* it!! You will too, I'm sure! We thought about getting one for the bedroom, but haven't yet.

It's been busy here -- as well as my choosing to spend more warm daylight hours outside walking and playing with Storm, or spending time w/ hubby instead of blogging. :)

All your pics are awesome, as always (sooc on these, right???). Love the bokeh on the rain photo too! So cool!

I adore the rocking truck -- your aunt is COOL!

You and your baby and bokeh is priceless!!

And I adore the walking shot. Oh, my!!
