New month, new look!

Hello there!  This is my new look!  What do you think??

I'm so excited about this blog design.  I'm head over heels in love with it.  It's the honeymoon phase...where I'm clicking to my own blog just to marvel over how pretty it is.

Okay, I'll stop now.

For the last few months, I've thought, "I should do a new design. I know nothing about design. Never mind that."

Then, it got to where I wasn't excited about blogging because I didn't like what I was looking at everyday.  But I kept going because I so love talking to all of you.

Finally, on Friday night, Scott was out fishing and I was sunburnt on the couch, watching re-runs (or something equally exciting).  I thought, "Dang it. This has got to change." In particular, the 3 column design was driving me crazy.  I wanted more space. I felt claustrophobic and you all know I really don't like clutter.

So I emailed Angi and asked her if she could re-do my blog design.

Dealing with a blog re-design can be stressful, especially if you have no idea what you're doing.  Luckily, I have many blog friends who are awesome at design.  I knew Angi, in particular, probably wouldn't mind my millions of questions and specific requests.

That was Friday night.

Today is Monday.

It's done and you are looking at it.

I think you should hire her if you're in the market for a blog design.  Not only was it quick and painless, but she truly loves design.  Check out her shop.  This girl knows what she's doing!  Thank you Angi!

*Also, if I could direct you to the header (don't you love it?), there's Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and Bloglovin' buttons.  Follow me if you'd like!  

**Oh, does anyone want to continue the button swap for July or begin a button swap?

Let's compare...

First, Google Reader (they say) is really going away in a couple of weeks.  So, if you'd like to keep on following, make sure you hit on that Bloglovin' button to the left!

*Edit: Apparently GFC isn't going away.  But I secretly wish it would :)*

No makeup.  Skirt: Old Navy // Tank: Target // Watch: Fossil

...I'm just saying!

Which do you prefer?  

1.  I think my hair is turning brown and I'm okay with that.

2.  I held onto bright blonde (or at least it looks that way in the sun there) for a very long time because I wasn't about to let Alaska change me.

3.  I've worn this skirt 4 times. Once last summer. Once at the beginning of the school year.  In that snow-rific picture you see above. And then to the ice cream place (it was lovely) last week.

4.  People who say it's too hot here and they'd "rather be cold than hot!" are crazy.  They've obviously never truly been cold if they're saying that.  I know that humidity/heat/impending sunburn can be uncomfortable, but being cold is not what you think it is.

5.  In unrelated news, I watched Forks Over Knives while I was cooking dinner Monday night.  It goes without saying that I didn't eat much.  Did you see it?  What'd you think?  I don't think I can look at dairy the same way anymore.  Milk, anyway.  I'm not giving up ice cream.
