A Weekend Makeover!

Rocco and me… this photo was taken at
Rocco's first dog show
when he was 4 months old!

Ta-da! Welcome to a whole new us!

Rocco and I spent the weekend at the blogger makeover spa where our pal Glogirly gave us the full fluffing and puffing.

The result?

A lighter, brighter us with a look that better fits our current lifestyle.

We've had the same look since I started blogging nearly four years ago, which is like 40 years in blog years. And so we were long overdue for some updates to make us both more stylish and functional.



Before

This was our very first post 

After

Our new look!

Our objective was to create a look that was fun and lively, with a clean and modern feel. Most importantly I wanted a text area that would be easy to read … no more white on black!

It was bittersweet to make the change, but it was time for a fresh, new start.  We started with a new business card design from Glogirly last year, so we were able to ease into the new look without it being too much of a shock!

Our business card


We have a new look on Facebook and Twitter too so we're all coordinated! We've made it easy for you to find us all over the social media universe. Just check out our cute social media buttons on our sidebar!

We hope you like the new look as much as we do! Change can be good!

Cartoon Rocco! He's all grown up now,
but he's still a bundle of fun!
