New Blog Design and Theme

I'm so happy to get a new blog design and theme. Jaimee did an awesome job! You can check out her design business HERE. She's a saint, I tell you!

I decided to finally turn our adoption blog into a family blog. Instead of going "private", I've decided to stop using our real names, and in turn, use our new nicknames (in the right sidebar). I'm going back to our old posts and removing names or just putting posts in "draft" that may have info on them. Obviously, our blog address will stay... but starting with our next post this blog will come up in your "readers" with the new title. So I hope you'll stay tuned. The funny part is that many of you went through the whole "journey to adopt" with us (What would I have done without you?!!). You already know who we are and it feels kind of silly to change our names, but my statcounter says that we have some new, wonderful blogger friends. So WELCOME, friends, new and old! Welcome to The Love Shack where we'll treat you like family and serve you a virtual piƱa colada by the pool, if only in our dreams.

With love,

Love the new look! It really makes me want summer to hurry up and get here though-looking at it while seeing a foot of snow in my front yard is just wrong!
