Summer Smiles

Just so you don't think I've disappeared entirely...

There are no further updates at this time, but just thought I'd share some fun pictures from our trip a few weeks ago.
****Grr. Blogger is not playing nice. Maybe I'll get more posted later.

Upgrading Blogger

I was finally able to figure out how to add some of the extras into the new Blogger. Here's some directions from a REALLY non-technical person~me.
This is what I did to add in the Cbox, Snippets, and other little do-dads on the sidebar. Go to the Dashboard. Click on the following tabs/buttons in this order: Template, Page Elements, Add & Arrange, Add a Page Element, then HTML/Java. This pops up a little window. From there I just copied and pasted the codes the other sites (Cbox, Christian Women Online, etc.) gave me for the items I wanted. I would paste one set of code, hit return a few times, then paste the next set of code, until I was done.
You could also probably redo, or make a new Page Element for each set of code, but putting them all into one worked for me. I choose what seemed easier at the time, although as I'm thinking of it, making a new Page Element for each would allow you to rearrange things easier later if you so choose. Good luck!

"Upgraded Blog"

I've been happily toodleling (SP?) around Blogland with my Old Blogger Blog. Until today. Blogger decided to no longer allow me to live in the past. In order to access the Blog I had to upgrade to the New Blogger. Sigh. Oh well, you get what you pay for, right Sweetheart?

So, at this point it's switched over, but several items disappeared entirely, including the Chatbox and my cute little sidebar buttons. I'll try to figure out how to add those later this week. I'm open to suggestions!

Also, I've noticed a few of you sweet ladies are linking here lately. I love that! I'd like to return the favor. Please leave a comment with your website and I'll get you added to the list as I continue to fiddle with the site this week.

I'm not sure when I'll get to it all as Pumpkin has decided he no longer needs two naps a day. This has greatly reduced Mommy's ability to work on projects during the day (including blogging) as I often am napping at the same time as his afternoon nap. It'll all work out. (Right about the time the new baby arrives!)

Note: The picture has no obvious link to this posting. It's just a picture of the mantel in the Family Room. The Chinese scroll has Philippians 4:7 on it.

"And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Hmm, maybe is does relate as I need a reminder of that verse often...
