I finally got it done1

That's right. I finally figured my google account out so I could sign in and finally join the family fun. I think it will be fun to keep in touch with everyone a lil' better and know what is going on in everyones live. We are excited for Thanksgiving and I can't wait to try to make another pie. I made one on friday and I'm still alive, so don't worry. HAHA See you all soon.

Hi everyone, I thought this would be helpful.Putting photos on the blog is easy, but there are some tricks that will give a better result. Here are a few things I've learned:

1. Save the photo on your computer in your photo storage location. For best photo quality, have the picture sized the size you want it to be on the blog (less than 400 px. wide). It will help those with slow internet connection if people optimize the photo file size to less than 15.5 kb, but some people may not have a program that does this. It's not essential, it just helps the page to load faster.

2. Open a new post. In blogger all photos load at the top, so if you're doing multiple photos, upload the lowest ones first.

3. Click on the little icon that looks like a photo. This will open a window where you find the photo on your computer and also choose the size and location of the photo.

4. Under "Add an image" choose browse and find the photo on your computer. Double click the picture to put the location in the bar.

5. Choose the location for the photo (left, center, or right) and the size (small, medium, or large.) To make the photo the same size as you saved it on your computer, choose large (this will give the best picture quality.)

6. Click "Upload photo" and then "done" when the picture shows up.

If you need to move pictures within your post:
(PC directions, but I think it's similar on Mac.)

Click on the photo in the post, then do control X to cut. Put the curser on the line you want to picture to show up (it will go to left, center, or right depending on the location you selected.) Do control V to paste the photo back in. It's very easy to move pictures around this way, much easier than trying to drag them where you want them.

HAPPY BLOGGING!

Brooke and Brittney helped Firth win the runner-up trophy at State, both ran great. Thanks, Dad, Mom, Steve, Holly and family for coming up and supporting the girls, we were thrilled to see you all. We will be down Saturday afternoon probably around 12:00. We thought we'd bring a seven layer salad, and a Banana Cream pie. If you like us to bring something, let us know.

Vicki and I were talking earlier today. We haven't heard from anyone other than Bree about what their schedules are like. We were thinking that if we did Dinner around 5 or 6 then Bree could probably join us. What that does is forces everyone else decide what to do for Sunday. The invitation is open that you are all welcome to stay you will just have to make arrangements for your Sunday obligations. We would love everyone to stay because we don't see you much and would like to catch up. Let us know. See ya soon. Love you all.

We took the girls to hannah montana they loved it. They were filming a movie that day and so the concert lasted till 11 then they got to be interviewed after the concert. They didnt seem happy so I dont know if they will make it on the movie or not. We also got to move from the upper bowl down closer to the floor. It was alot of fun to be with shi. I also thought everyone would like to see what the kids were for halloween. Don't I look good also. I hope everyone had a fun halloween we did. I guess we will see everyone at thanksgiving. Love Ya
