Monday Mutterings, A Poll and Blog Party News

OK – not a great post title, but it was the best I could do!

I purchased my first kit from Jofia Designs today, and made this layout. She has a very distinctive style, and I loved working with the gorgeous elements.

Also some elements from Ephemerals II also by Jofia.

The beautiful baby is Jonathan – no, he isn’t one of mine (!). Someone left praise in a gallery, complimenting me on my beautiful son. He is beautiful, but he is the son of our good friends, and I love to take photos of him.

So I have been very remiss in posting photos on my photo blog. I have taken plenty, but not uploaded them. I will try to get caught up, so keep checking back.

So have you noticed a few new things on the sidebar to your right?

Poll – please let me know why you come here, or more to the point, why you came here and stayed around to read this post! It is for no other reason than my curiosity, so even if you just lurk, please vote in the poll.
