Changing the look around here.....

I have decided to change the look around here.  I love all of the fluff and pretty that I had on my blog but, as I am really reflecting, I have decided I need simplicity.  Not only in my life but in my blog, as well.  Here is what I have come up with so far.  I will do some more tweaking, not with graphics but moving things in and out.  What do you think?

Blessings,

Trixi

Well you know me, trixi... I am a simple gal thru and thru... I love this template.....it reminds me of my home.... almost exactly... I did try to use this one but I couldn't change the graphic to display my own farm photo at top......

Simple is nice, I love white backrounds.

Blessings~

I understand the wish to simplify in all areas of your life. I am going through the same thing by donating and tossing some of the clutter and frills around here.

I like the template! Love that house on top....it reminds me of my grandmother's house and all the good times we had there. We never needed elecrtonics there to entertain us. She would give us a box of crayons and a pad of paper and we would have fun for hours, and that was in our teens! LOL

God's Blessings,

looks pretty cool.
It does look like Gloria's house all blurry.
I really liked this one except that you can't see the house.

Blessings,

Nothing cleaner to me than the crisp white background with the fresh green. You did well!

A) I love your blog. Selfishly, it works out for me because I am on dial up, and the blogs that have tons of graphics and blinkies, I can't load :-(!

B) You know how you have a 'picture in your mind' of people you chat with online..........then you see a real photo and you were DEAD wrong in your mental image? Your smile is incredible!

C) How are things going with the house??

Laura

Looks Great!

Trixi-
This is very restful, and easy to read... I've considered a similar change for my blog now that I have dial-up, but I do love my graphics. Peace~ Shari

“I want to know one thing,” said John Wesley, “—the way to heaven: how to land safe on that happy shore. God himself has condescended to teach the way. He hath written it down in a book. O give me that book! At any price, give me the book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be a man of one book.”
