It's February?!

Um. . . so wasn't it Christmas yesterday?! I think I missed something {like, the month of January!} because it just does not seem like it could really be February already!! We have been so busy!! We had another snow, a couple of weeks ago, however I was sick and Jarrod was working like crazy so we didn't get out in it! And Stratton has had an ear infection in the past week. Other than that we are doing great! Just staying super busy as always!

I have some pictures I need to upload of Stratton enjoying one of my all time favorite treats (one I thought was lost forever!) which just came back into my life this past week. People from NE Arkansas will remember the Cookie Factory in the old Indian Mall?? Well those same folks have set up shop in the Daylight Donuts shop and guess what?? They have COOKIE POPS!! Remember those?! They were my favorites! And I had no shame being 20 years old carrying a cookie pop (with a big blue smiley face iced on it) through the mall!! Anyway "Cookies N' More" opened Saturday and Jarrod went and got me one {that will keep him on the "good" list for awhile!} and I went back yesterday! ha-ha! They are so good! It's the glaze they use on them, I think it's just heavenly!! And I want to support them so they don't go out of business!! I think Stratton is a fan, too!! He loved it!!

I also just figured out how to design my own blog backgrounds!! I knew just enough html from college to make me dangerous and I finally figured it out!! I am really proud of myself, especially since I didn't ever do well in my computer programming classes! I am trying to learn more about custom blog design. It's something I am really interested in, but I don't have a lot of time to spend playing with it and I think that is the key, the more you do it the better you are and more creative you can be! Maybe someday!!

You might find this interesting, too. . . I am working with a girl from London (yes, England) designing her wedding monogram and save the dates. What's so cool is that she works for a huge marketing consultancy (I didn't even know that was a word?!) in London called "Prophet" [google prophet.com- it they do stuff for really big companies in England and all throughout Europe] Her name is Anni and she is Indian (as in from India) and is getting married there in July!! Pretty neat, right?!! She was google-ing custom monograms and up popped my blog, she liked what she saw so she emailed me and we have been working together for a few weeks now! I am just about to wrap the project up!

That's all for now. I know you came for pictures and I am sorry I don't have more for you! I will try to do better this month!
