I don't consider myself much of a brain when it comes to setting up or designing web pages, but generally I am able to figure things out pretty quickly. Well not this week! You may have noticed I switched comment systems on my blogs. It was suppose to be an easy switch, well let me tell you, I managed to make it very difficult. Installing, uninstalling, manually installing, uninstalling, over and over again for three hours! All that time and work to finally realize it had actually worked the very first time. The saying 'I was only wrong once and that was when I thought I had been mistaken' comes to mind.

Lexi and I decided it had been too long since we had a fun girls night, so we decided to host a Girls Night Party last Saturday evening. We invited the three female relatives who live in our area as well as a few female friends. A few were not able to make it but we still had a blast with the six of us that were there. It was a terrific night of music, snacks, drinks, games and best of all mega laughter with wonderful friends. At the end of the night we all agreed we should do this every month at least once.
