I SWEAR I am MOVING…
This was the weather “situation” Sunday…
Last time I checked, I live in OREGON… NOT The Great White North!!
WHAT ON EARTH?!
Then it started "snailing," snow + hail, along with THUNDER and LIGHTENING!
IT IS MARCH, IT IS OREGON!!
And then, as if that wasn’t enough, this morning…
MORE FREAKING SNOW!!
I know, I must confess… just this past Friday in my Fabulous Friday! (on Saturday) post I said, “I am just trying to keep in mind that all of this cold wet weather is what makes Oregon so BEAUTIFULLY GREEN!!”
I LIED!!
I am now officially collecting signatures for a petition to have Mother Nature FIRED!! LOL
I WANT SPRING SUN!!
But, “The Chef” did bake some Cream Filled Cupcakes…
So, after I took Kate to school and John was off to work, I had one for “breakfast” with my coffee!!
So, anywho… since the weather is so stellar here, I was cruisin’ around the web. I was looking for a Pinterest widget for Blogger blogs, because I am OBSESSED with Pinterest and Wordpress has one, so I wanted one!! In my search I found a brand new blog called Code it Pretty, this blog ROCKS!!
“So, what's Code it Pretty all about? This blog is my love letter to the wedding-y, craft-y, food-y bloggers of the world who already have the basics of blogging down, but want to know more about how their sites work on the inside. I want to take you by the hand for a grand tour of the inner workings of your blog, and help you understand (and maybe fall in love with!) what you find in there.” ~ Marie of Code it Pretty
I AM IN LOVE!! In LOVE with Marie’s blog!! VERY easy to read (I LIKE feeling smart) and NOT all that techy blah, blah, blah!!
And the BEST part?? Her first tutorial is a Pinterest widget for Blogger…
“Code it Pretty is a friendly place to ask questions. Cliché, but true: the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. That's doubly true when it comes to web design & development, where questions can have many answers, each of which can often lead to even more questions. If you're curious about digging into the code behind your blog, this is the place to be, and your questions are welcome.”~ Marie of Code it Pretty
I followed Marie’s easy instructions, made a few tweaks that she provided the answers to and VOILA… A PINTEREST WIDGET!! SO EXCITING!! You can see it over there on the right side bar!!
The ONLY thing I wanted to change was when you click on the images to have them open in a new window, so you don’t get lost getting back here!! So, I asked if that was possible and not even 30 minutes later Marie had answered my question and provided me the code and instructions!!
How AWESOME is that?!
I am now following Code it Pretty via email to get the latest blog fun and I would seriously recommend you do too!! To follow Code it Pretty via email just go to the bottom of the blog on the right and enter your email address!!
THANK YOU MARIE!!
Hope you all have a MARVELOUS Monday!!
Just a few FINISHING touches and Kate’s room will be complete!! She ABSOLUTELY LOVES her NEW room… we rarely see her now! 
OK, wasn’t so sure waking to SNOW on Thursday morning was all that FABULOUS! We didn’t have much of a winter here in Oregon, so it’s arrival in March has been, well… not well received!! I am just trying to keep in mind that all of this cold wet weather is what makes Oregon so BEAUTIFULLY GREEN!! LOL
I so TOTALLY ROCK!! LOL

Kate’s choir participated in a festival on Wednesday and Britt and I went to listen. They sounded AWESOME!! It was GREAT, but why no matter where I sit do I end up not being able to get a picture of Kate without someone else's head blocking her face?!
I am NOT a big shopper, just NOT one of my FAVORITE things to do, but I made a MAJOR SCORE at 
Thursday was Portland’s FIRST 60 degree day this year!! YAY!! It was SERIOUSLY like HEAVEN!! I opened ALL of the doors and windows, it FELT so NICE!! Above is the view out my front window as I am typing this post!! Pretty AWESOME, isn’t it?!
