It's our 4th Blog-o-versary!

Hi all and pardon our dust!!!!

Cody and I just wanted to get a quick blog post up, (as you can see we have a BRAND NEW LOOK, and we are still tweaking, and dusting and polishing), but we wanted to take a moment to THANK ALL OF YOU for being such fabulous friends (who are more like family), and for joining us  on this AMAZNG FOUR YEAR JOURNEY!!!

Our surprise was that we have been working on a LONG OVERDUE makeover for the blog and Cody and I love it! It was done by Wacky Jacqui's Designs  and we couldn't be happier with the end result!!

So, what do you think?

 We are all ears!

Thanks to Sammy at One Spoiled Cat for this great card:


We love you all and THANK YOU for being our furiends! Now help us:

    Happy blogoversary. The internet is littered with abandoned blogs, and I am glad you are not one of them. I like the new header, and the green color is easy on the eyes. Organization looks well done also, but who am I to judge? As long as Cody likes it, it must be OK.
