New Look For This Blog?

It's been a while since we first set up this blog.

Is there any appetite for changing the design, perhaps go to a three column design or add some additional elements?

Two New Blogs

In case you missed it, we have added two new blogs to the "blog-roll"

In addition to Jamie and Trent's "Bates Busy Beehive", Tonia's "Wistful Voyages", and your's truly's "A Paladin In Citadel" we have also added Anita's "My Fitdeck Challenge" and Kelvin Senior's "Kelvin's Blog".

Check them out!

Whose Blog Is This Anyway?

One of the comments that was made at the St. Nicholas party was how much people were enjoying my Larch Haven blog.

Actually, this isn't my blog, this is OUR blog.

Trent had suggested some time ago that we set up a family website. I think that is a great idea. In the interim, this blog is a great way to keep everyone up-to-date on what is going on in our lives. We can, at some future date, bring this blog over to a family website, if and when we get it up and going.

Everyone who joins this blog is given full administrator access. That means you can post blog entries and comment on other people's blog entries. So feel free to make this your blog!

Invitations To Join The Family Blog - Update

Here is a list of invitations that have been sent out, to join the family blog, but the invitations have not been accepted. I'm thinking that this is due to invitations being sent to old email addresses. If you can leave a comment on this blog-post, updating me on the correct email addresses, (or email me at doral_johnson@shaw.ca) I will send out new invitations. There are several people who I have missed as well, for which I sincerely apologize! At a minimum, I am missing Dan, Adam, Jeremy, David, Connor, Zoe, Greg.... Please add their email addresses, and any others who I have missed, to your comments, so I can send them an invitation.

Invitations

I have been tardy in sending invitations to the rest of the family. I intended to do so last night, but got busy with Ceilidh's homework, then reading to Meighan, then doing some reading of my own.

I leave for a week in Las Vegas early thursday morning, so if I don't get it done before then, I won't have a chance 'til after Nov 26.

I will try to send the other invites before I leave.

Update: I have sent invitations to the following people, in addition to the ones identified in this post:

Steve Carter, Lurene and Tim, Marcia and Art, David Pilling, Desiree, Curtis and Sarah, Trent and Jamie, Tonia, Layne, Connor, Cheri and Teague.

I am sure I am missing some emails (Dan?), so if there is anyone else that I have missed, first, please accept my apologies! Second, someone please get me their emails so I can send them an invite!
