Farewell Party '05 - Many new bloggers in pic

It's time to update my Blog Roll. Many of my friends in real life have joined our little hobby of blogging. {{a.k.a. obsession}} I rarely update my sidebar anymore because I use Bloglines to keep updated on all my favorite blogs. It's way overdue for new entries.

So please welcome all these fabulous ladies properly by leaving a welcome comment on their newly designed blogs:

Cecilia - my sister-in-law
Heather - we grew up together
Melissa - amazing longtime friend (has twins)
Colette - my BFF growing up's sister (has twins)
Jeanette - my BFF growing up's sister
Lynette - my BFF growing up's sister
Tami - amazing friend (2 sets of twins)
Emily - card swap friend
Nicole - married a childhood friend
Tatiana - threw me a surprise baby shower w/ Drake
Kristi - is my local vinyl source and friend
Carrie - friend from church
Mimi - friend from church
Amber - friend from BYU

**Update: JaNae - friend from BYU who drops off the face of the earth and pops up at random times. Currently living in Italy.

If I've forgotten you, it wasn't intentional. Shoot me over an e-mail and I'll welcome you properly.

Oh my gosh! I can't believe Scott's family! They are gorgeous and look just like his family did way back when. Those Bingham traits are rampant, I tell ya.

Blogging 101 - What Not To Do

Since I just did a post to welcome a bunch of new bloggers, I thought I'd give our newbies some good tried and true: Blogging 101 -What NOT to do! Yes, this is unsolicited advice from yours truly, but I think it's about time someone addresses the issues. #1. Don't get green with envy , Blenvy it's coined, while reading other's blogs. According to CJane , "It usually comes from reading a blog that emphasizes my insecurities." Well said blogger guru. I couldn't agree with you more. Please remember that each post is just a moment of that person's day/week. Instead, just be happy that something amazing happened to your fellow blogger. Be inspired by them!

Craft Closet Make Over

I've finally done it. After 2 years of living in this house, I've finally finished organizing the last closet in my home. This is the guest room closet that doubles as my "craft" closet. You could barely consider it a walk-in closet, but with 2 new shelves my man built for me over the weekend, it's got just enough space for what I need. Closet Before Closet Before - complete chaos ! After - view from hall (I used a different camera because mine is still broken. It was so hard to get these pics the space is so small. I hope you can get the idea.) Small shelf with hanging space for guests clothes - just above the door that goes to the attic. I spray painted 2 of these tins pink and glued flowers onto the other 3. Top Shelf Middle, 2 new shelves that Jason made and I painted white. I added these "curtains" to cover the other white bins and to make the space less messy. I used 2 tension rods and they open up in the middle. I was inspired by this craft room ...

I can't believe it, as of Tuesday, I have been blogging for one year! On the outside not much has changed: I have 3 boys, live in the same house, my man has the same job, and I still go to Mavens, book club, and dinner club with the same fab friends. But in reality a lot has changed: * Davis has braces * Davis is now medicated * Dylan has been diagnosed with ADHD and is now medicated {{a hit to my ego}} * Finished Mommy & Me gymnastics with Drake * Drake is talking a little * Drake is in a big boy bed - although still not sleeping through the night * Jason's going to school to get his MBA * Executive Homemaker which took over a year to design and 5 years as a concept is 15 months old and has 2,333 members and growing at a rate of 300+ new members every month. * Executive Homemaker's online store has grown from three to 26 Mom- prenuers ! * Tip Junkie is 11 months old * My house is a little prettier and more organized * My Dad is divorced * My brother Scott came home...
