Happy 40th Birthday to Me!

I'm celebrating...can you tell?

My heartfelt thanks goes out to Jolanthe at Relevant Designs (and Homeschool Creations) for making my bloggy makeover dreams come true!

I've learned a lot about blogging on my own over these last three and a half years, but I could never have made this leap without her skills.

And thanks goes out to Dan who recently allowed me to purchase $5 worth of extra Google storage per year (I had maxed out the free portion!) and who said yes! enthusiastically to the blog makeover as part of my birthday celebration!

So, stay tuned for more news on this great, big birthday moment. We have a super busy weekend with our LEGO FIRST competition on Saturday and an extra practice today for 3 hours...so not sure what Dan and the kids have planned for me.

I have a few more thoughts on this milestone birthday...no, I'm not freaking out, but I have come to a few conclusions about things. So, stay tuned!
