What Are We Having For Dinner

Laura started this blog as a way to share her savvy organizational skills when it comes to dinner. The title "What Are We Having for Dinner?", is very near and dear to her heart as it is the question her daughter is always asking. It is also the inspiration for the youthful look we went with.

Stop on by and pick up some meal planning tips!

Mom, I'm Bored!

"Mom, I'm Bored!" is a new blog by Laura. She has a hard time finding ways to keep her kids entertained and this blog will be a place to share her finds for stuff to do with your kids.

The design approach to this is that the header and backgrounds will change with the seasons, so be sure to check it out!

Moms... Check Nyo

As of October 2nd, Moms... Check Nyo is 1 year older and Liza wanted a new look to coincide with the anniversary. She wanted the design to include pastel colors as well as flowers. I think it turned out fresh and inviting. Stop on over to Moms... Check Nyo and wish her a happy blog-anniversary!

BelLeeBeadz

Belinda wanted a new design for her jewelry blog - "BelLeeBeadz". We worked through different color combinations and this is the final result. I really like how it turned out and I believe it helps showcase her creations really well. Her craftsmanship and designs are a must see!
