Love the new design! Thanks again for such a lovely idea!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:13 am
Great new look! Started my new blog back in late December…This is a great idea!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:14 am
Thank you for hosting us!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:20 am
I love it, especially the ‘menu’ titles on the sidebar!
This was such a great idea. Mine is not quite finished yet, but close enough to participate!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Still working out the kinks at the new site, so it’s redirecting back to Blogger for the moment – any tips on importing posts from Blogger to Wordpress would be appreciated (not been a fun process so far!). In any case, hopefully it’ll be up and running sometime soon (maybe even yet today) – I did also change over to a new URL as well.
I love your new look!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:29 am
Hi. New here, and glad I found your blog through 5 minutes.
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:30 am
Love your new look! Thanks for hosting this carnival. It couldn’t have been better timing as I just redecorated over at my place a few days ago!
To celebrate, I’m having a fun giveaway too!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:30 am
Christy – thank you for organizing this. It is so much fun to check out everyone’s new diggs. Love your new look!
on February 11th, 2008 at 8:43 am
I love your header! I just redid my template and colors, but it’s still rather boring. I’m waiting till I figure out how to do cool things before I attempt another remodel.
on February 11th, 2008 at 9:22 am
Happy Moving day! I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time
Your new site looks amazing. Very cute, I love it!
As you know, I moved my blog to my own domain back in December. I’m still not totally satisfied with how it looks, I wish I had something unique like yours. But alas, we cannot afford to have a special one made.
on February 11th, 2008 at 9:37 am
My site doesn’t have much, but I am learning and trying to add new to it. Thanks for the incentive to get it going.

on February 11th, 2008 at 9:53 am

Thanks for giving us this opportunity to link!!
Your site looks great!!
on February 11th, 2008 at 10:07 am
What a wonderful redesign; I’m going to have to check out Swank Web Style when I’m ready to change…again!
I’ve enjoyed clicking around your site and Megan’s.
My blog started as a wp.com blog in Oct; moved to paid hosting powered by wp.org in Dec. Just moved again over to freebie hosting at Blogger.
Thanks for organizing this! What a fun idea!
Looking forward to clicking through some new blogs!

Hello!
On January 1st I moved to my own .com. Then I proceeded to change things, add things, redesign things, etc. It’s been a learning process during the kids nap time.
Thanks for hosting!

I didn’t even know it was moving day? Where have I been? I changed my blog look (using Lindsay at Splat Designs in Dec.)
I love the look of your blog. The textured pink is great. And and coffee theme? How can you go wrong?

I don’t have a blog, just commenting. I’ve enjoyed visiting your site and would like to enter the giveaway. Thanks.

Thanks for hosting this fun event!
This is my first time visiting your blog, but I love you already. Homeschool mom & Navy wife are two of my favorite things in the world! I’m not a Navy wife myself, but my husband and I started out our marriage in Pax River, MD, where we grew to love many a Navy family! There’s a special place in our heart for the military, and despite the fact that I was an Army brat and have a sister in the Air Force, I’m still partial to the Navy, and Navy wives in particular. I know how much you gals sacrifice for my freedom and I appreciate you so much!
Were you ever at PAX River Naval Air Station?
Grace and Peace,
Angel
