I've been trying to design a banner for my blog. I came up with an image I like, but when I previewed it on my site, I didn't like it. It didn't seem to fit. I'll have to keep trying. I want to find something that really represents me.
Cherie Reich's Flashes of Foxwick is now available on Amazon and Smashwords. It's a great collection of fantasy pieces taking place in her marvelous world of Foxwick.
Aubrie Dionne's first fantasy romance novel, Messenger in the Mist, is on sale at Amazon for $.99! A beautifully written tale.
Alex J. Cavanaugh is having a contest to celebrate 1500 followers. Congratulations, Alex! He's giving away both his books - CassaStar and CassaFire - and the books will be donated to a school library of the winner's choice. Awesome.
My weekend was a busy one. My son turned two. He's happy, healthy, smart, creative, and beautiful. I lucked out with the little guy.
We already celebrated with my family in Canada on Easter. This past Saturday, we had a barbecue with our friends and decorated cupcakes. Good times.
The little guy looks A LOT like I did when I was his age. Here he is in a mud puddle, and there I am at two years old in a ruffly dress that does not suit a tomboy!
I didn't cut his hair to match mine. I like his page boy look. Mine was that bowl or mushroom cut which I hated as a child.
How cute. I wish I had straight hair. Mine is all over the place. My mom used to put some sort of grease just to get it down. LOL
ReplyDeleteFunny how when you have curly hair, you want straight hair. Yet I have straight hair and I would love to have curls. Everyone in my family has curls except for me.
DeleteHe's so adorable. Wow, you two do look a lot alike. I had a similar haircut to yours.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a great weekend.
Thanks! I always thought he looked like my husband until I dug up that old photo of me.
DeleteHappy birthday to your son! Sounds like a fun weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you! :) It was a good time.
DeleteHappy Birthday to your son! Such a cutie.
ReplyDeleteA to Z has just about killed me this year but I'm glad I did it. And I'm so happy it's almost over, gah. ;)

Thank you! You're doing great with the Challenge. I wish I had more time this month for it to visit blogs, but I figure I'll keep visiting even in through May.
DeleteHe does look a lot like you! Hope he had a grand time during his birthday weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning my giveaway!
You're welcome! The little guy had a great time. Loves his new sandbox we got him.
DeleteHi, yes, I'm still working at the A to Z! You look a LOT like your son! Isn't that fun?!
ReplyDeleteLots of fun! A bit weird in a way too. *LOL*
DeleteOh wow, you do look alike! Your son is a cutie!

Thank you!
DeleteHappy birthday to your little guy1 He's a cutie!
ReplyDeleteYour little guy is so precious! And he is the spitting image of you! You are truly blessed! :-) I can't believe the A to Z is close to being done. It was my first year. Certainly motivated me to write--and to visit and discover a lot of other blogs and writers I might never have. A really good group :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, the writing community is wonderful. I'm so happy and honored to be a part of it. :)
DeleteThat hair cut is definitely matching :-)
ReplyDelete*LOL* It's not on purpose either!
DeleteChristine...your little guy is SO cute!! I can't believe there is only one week left either. It went so fast. That support you have received is what I love about blogging and our community! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you! The people in this community have given me great encouragement. They're fantastic. :)
DeleteYour son is adorable! And so were you!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with your banner!
Thank you! I have this image in my mind what I want for the banner, but I'd need a professional graphic artist and/or painter for it! *LOL* I'll piece together something sort of like it.
