So who, you ask, is responsible for this magic? Certainly not me, for even trying to read the tutorial on how to create a blog banner made my eyes bleed. (Note to self: Buy HTML/Web Design for Dummies book.)
The other day I dropped by Domestic Chicky's and noticed that she had an adorable new banner. So I left her a comment telling her how much I liked it and how I was jealous of her new look. She promptly emailed me and said "I can make you one." So I promptly emailed her back and said "OK!! YES!!" After a bit of discussion and WAY too much over-analyzing on my part, I kind of just gave her some basic ideas and left it in her hands. (She might have a different version for you.) And my, what capable hands they are! I'm thrilled with what she came up with. It's a much more accurate representation of ME. And yes, if I were a color, I'd be red. I'm definitely not a "standard template that's available to everyone" kind of gal. So this totally makes me happy.
A huge thank you to Domestic Chicky for sharing her mad skillz with me. And for being so patient with me and my incessant indecisiveness. (My new self-admonition: "It's not like I'm tattooing it on my body.") If you're in the market for a new look for your blog, go see her. You can see more of her designs here.
Oh, and let me know what you think!

PS...I just had a chance to go back and read through some comments from last week and wanted to answer your question...
The boys have been doing gymnastics since they were preschoolers..actually I started them in a Mom/tot class just for something to do with them...but it was more of a learn to wait your turn and follow directions class than it was gymnastics. And we just kept re-signing them up for the preschool and then boys rec classes because they kept loving it. Until one day when they were invited to join the team...I think they were 6 when that happened. But there's no specific ages...kids start at all ages.
