This past few weeks have been a whirlwind of new things for Brian and I. But I am sooo grateful and thankful. Here is a little recap of some news and odds and ends.
WPPI // SHOWIT UNITED RECAP
We got back from WPPI in Vegas about a week ago and it was such a great time. I always love seeing and recognizing faces and meeting people in person. It always makes the interbwebs feel much smaller. Don’t you agree?
I spoke about how to design YOU into your website and visual identity. and hopefully I will share some of what I talked about here soon. I did a live website critique and that was REALLY interesting. I think the people that came to watch learned some great tips and tricks as well. I had a lot of fun doing that. and to top it off…at my presentation session I gave away 3 sites to the session attendees and the room really lit up. Haha. I am really stoked for those of you that won the new designs. Send a link when they’re published. I always love to see the designs customized. AND I was honored to be on a Q&A panel with some really talented designers (Michael from Myndt, and Earl&Layne) talking about everything from our design pet peeves, to advice on boosting your brand, to the creative process.

SITEHOUSE UPDATE
The new SITEHOUSE release has been the BEST release we have had yet. and i am really stoked and excited about how many people are loving them and making them their own. Makes my heart really happy to provide an alternative way for people to have custom designed sites. WOOP WOOP!! and I wanted to announce that I LOOOOVED the Facebook videos that came in from the Facebook Video Event and I am giving you all Sitehouse designs!! WIN WIN WIN!!! I really appreciate the participation and LOVED all the videos. So fun!!
I have some news for SiteHouse coming up. We have more stuff up our sleeves so sign up for the newsletter to be the first (and sometimes the only) to know about the new stuff.
OUR NEW PUPPY!!
OMG!!! I do have to say that life has been a little crazy and different the last few weeks. and a little exhausting. PUPPIES ARE BUSY little fellows. HOLY WOWZA!! We are in love and smitten with our new friend. More photos and videos to come. YIIPYY!!
My sister and brother-in-law were in town of a few days and took some FUNNN photos of me, brian, and our new puppy parker. CANT WAIT TO SHOW YOU!!
