11/7/2009 3:18:25 AM - 000085599530
Hey Miss Joey.... How are you ...Is your computer back up to speed? I havent seen you much...but I havent been around much this last week either.. Working on Christmas already... I want to cruise in Dec...

11/7/2009 3:02:02 AM - 000093706714
Thinking of you..........hope you are doing well.

11/7/2009 2:21:27 AM - 000076820331
Joey, Thanks for "pushing" the simple path I've got a couple done and may use simple path for Christmas gifts. I love all the fall on your pages. You can almost hear the giggles from the kids in the leaves. Great job. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. I am doing really good. I'm please with my progress and so is my Dr. I don't have another proceedure until January. A little bit of a break. He keeps telling me I am a work in progress. :) Maybe I'll be a perfect 10 in 2010?? LOL :)

11/7/2009 2:15:17 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, thanks for posting the pictures!! Too fun seeing them on here. I had a ball meeting her. Would be great to work out something to meet you too!!
I worked in my site today, posted a bunch of pictures. Finally feel like I'm getting caught up. I have a list of books to look at too. Maybe tomorrow morning I can get that done.
Tomorrow is my party, I am so excited and maybe a little nervous :) I want it to go so great. I am making the postcard tomorrow :) I hope it comes out looking good. I love the bags and can't wait to pass them out!!

11/6/2009 4:33:26 AM - 002055694880
I just adore the headers and the kids playing the leaves. WONDERFUL!!!! Hi Joey how are ya>? I hear that you are having the internet probs now too huh?? Bummer. I think I am finally up and running and could not wait. Well it's late and I have to get to bed. I think I am going to do my first photo shoot tomorrow. TOO EXCITING!

11/5/2009 12:22:31 PM - 001061370098
hi joey, your site looks fabulous! you have some wonderful fall photos. love the sunset book!!! i have been crazy busy all summer. haven't kept my site updated. have been working on another photo business website...peggyklinephotography.weebly.com

have been doing lots of photos for other people. did not intend to start a biz, but i seems to be leaning that way. but doing photos for other people has slowed me down on doing all the stuff i like to do with and for my own families photos.

but it has been fun and i have learned a lot. but am just scratching the surface of this semi-pro stuff.

thank you for stopping by and checking on me. i will try to stay better in touch.

have a great fall.
peg.

11/5/2009 6:26:47 AM - 002065887734
Hello Joey, Wanted to stop by and let you know you've been a good influence on me. I keep trying the Simple Path and have been too picky, but I know your book turned out spectacular. I wanted you to know that I looked at the Shaw Farm preview book. I loved it! Only had to change a very few photos & the cover. Think I ordered 3 for little surprise presents over the holidays! Thanks for not letting me give up. (on the other hand...it's now 1:23 am. I've been working on a Simple Path straight through since 6. I'm dedicated, if nothing else. They finally turned out really cute, too. Edited one for each person. Think I'll be really happy with them & real surprises to the recepients.) Thanks! Barb

11/4/2009 7:10:58 AM - 002035648808
Hi Joey...What is this business about your Christmas page being about ready to launch. I am recuperating from Halloween and fall. Are you going to launch it before or after Thanksgiving? I can't wait to see it. I am already thinking about how to do mine. I finally finished Luke's book, I think. I am going to hold off on ordering it for about a week just in case I change my mind on the layout. I have seen some pretty cool books out there. I am really starting to like the less is better look. I have always preferred the one picture per page look but I am trying to mix it up some:) I hope you have a good week. I am going to look around for awhile and see if I can find anything new:)

11/3/2009 3:30:41 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey!! I was working like crazy today, made a big dent in my piles of charts :) I didn't get to get on the sites til now. I uploaded all my pictures to the computer today and I hope to have some posted to my site by tomorrow night. Hope all is well.
Getting excited about my party this weekend :)

11/3/2009 12:06:32 AM - 001061427203
Joey, LOVE LOVE LOVE the leave pictures. Fall is the best time of year to take pictures, leaves make for the most fun. Thanks for stopping by, glad you liked the Vacation book i did; cant wait to show my gram, i am going to put together a book for her for Christmas.

We had fun at Sears today and i am glad Brady was in a good mood but still geeze at 3 her really does keep us on our toes! He was more than willing to smile and say cheese, he just did not want to do any of the poses they wanted him to do!

11/2/2009 3:09:29 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,
 Hope you had a good weekend. How are you feeling? Is the chill in the air yet in Fargo? Love all the photos with the kids and the leaves. Really nice.

My mom is doing well and now only needs reading glasses. Have you been watching The Amazing race? I have and realizing this is tough. But love seeing how everyone reacts to stressful tasks.

Just wanted to say Hi and I'll visit again real soon. BTW, I have added some more Europe photos to my travel site. Journaling is not yet completely. Soon!!!

11/2/2009 5:10:13 AM - 002065887734
Hi, Joey! Is the 'wedding couple' the parents of the little girl who got 'busted' on Grandma's bed? I LOVED that photo! (She had pink on, I think) If so, time does fly. Love the cleaning out pumpkins of you three in the past. You've got a super page...and love your home page also. I need Bambu on the Pictures page of My Little Ferals Site! He'd be a heart-stopper for sure. All the little girlies would be chasing him, for sure!

11/2/2009 3:08:51 AM - 002029331419
Joey!! Look how cute your fall page has turned out!! I like it! :0)
It's always fun to see when you pop in!
How are you feeling these days?
It's supposed to hit back in the 70's this week....hello..I just swapped my winter/summer clothes over! Now I'm going to be cooking again! argh! Oh well...can't last very long..It's November!! :0)

11/1/2009 11:07:00 PM - 001023411097
Hi Joey, I hope you get this on your email also. Love to visit. I will talk to you later. bj

11/1/2009 9:51:07 PM - 002063504014
Joey,
Glad you liked the fall colors from my recent vacation to the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia, especially since the rain in your area silenced the colors. I like how you did your sunset page, great colors. Hope you get the sunshine back.

11/1/2009 7:31:23 PM - 002065887734
Thanks Joey. Your sunset book is gorgeous! I've seen other books that are simply beautiful! Guess I enjoy picking out my papers & all the extra stuff. (I'm an original die-hard old fashioned scrapbooker, but I just LOVE the Shutterfly books!!!) Have a super weekend. ...and BOO to you, though a bit late!

10/31/2009 9:32:26 PM - 000074469281
BOO! Happy Halloween everyone!!

10/31/2009 9:14:45 PM - 002065887734
I see all those neat books by the Simple Path way. I've tried it 2 times. Maybe I'm a micro manger & control freak, but it took me too long to redo the pages, into a form I wanted. I gave up & did it the old way. (I don't use the Layout tool either though.) Is there a trick or am I just too much of a perfectionist?

10/31/2009 3:59:21 PM - 002065887734
Love your neat fall pages! The kids in the leaves are really nice...but I like it all!!! Your sandwich is making me hungry! A super site! Have a fun Halloween and hope you get to share part of it with a wonderful little one. Barb

10/31/2009 2:22:04 PM - 001024320926
PS: Have a wonderfully Spooky time for Halloween!!! :):)

10/31/2009 2:12:27 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey!! I can not wait to see your Christmas Page!!!! I love Christmas and this time of year so much I can hardly stand myself :)
Thanks for the comments and stopping by I love seeing you have been there!!!

10/31/2009 3:21:03 AM - 000084822188
Hi Joey, Yes, I took the photo of the moon and the pumpkins.
As far as the site update information in the "Favorite Links" section, I'm wondering if it's a matter of when they were added. Most of mine were added fairly recently. So, I suggest that you add a new "Favorite links" section to your site and start populating it. Perhaps there have been changes to the section since you added it to your site.
PS: I like all the photos of the kids having fun with the leaves. It's nice that the leaves are dry. Where I live, they are all wet.

10/31/2009 3:05:35 AM - 000076820331
Joey, Thanks for stopping by my site. Glad to hear from you. I love the pictures of the kids in the leaves! Our leaves in Illinois are so wet now, they would not be near as fun as these!

10/31/2009 1:07:25 AM - 001023411097
Joey, love the leaves and I am set to daily! I don't know what I was thinking when I email you. I want to look around love the kids and you too playing in the leaves. bj

10/30/2009 8:44:40 PM - 000084822188
Hi Joey, I'm not sure why the site update dates are showing up on my Favorite list. I noticed the a couple of sites show update dates on your Gallery and Guru's page. If I figure something out, I'll let you know.

10/30/2009 8:30:24 PM - 002071387328
Hi Joey! Thx for visiting me and for your wonderful comments. I love the image of the kids throwing leaves.. Wonderful.

10/29/2009 8:52:57 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey........I got your email about Lily's album and totally enjoyed viewing it. Thanks for sharing the details. Hugs Cheri

10/29/2009 7:50:46 PM - 000085599530
Yeah...I got it... Really Joey...am not a stalker...:)

10/29/2009 3:09:37 PM - 002058704076
Fabulous site!! And thank you so much for your nice comment on my book "Welcome To Stacey's World".
Stacey

10/29/2009 4:23:23 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I FINALLY HEARD FROM 2 GUEST FOR THE PARTY! MY COUSIN STEPHANIE RSVPed YES AND MY SISTER IN LAW SAID SHE IS GOING! THANK GOODNESS I SENT THE LETTER! EVERYONE SO FAR SAID THEY DON'T LOOK AT THEIR EMAILS AND NEVER SEEN IT! EXACTLY WHAT I FEARED! I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE SENT THE LETTER AND PARTY DETAILS THE SAME DAY I EMAILED EVERYONE 10 DAYS AGO! IT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME FROM STRESSING OUT SO MUCH! NOW LIKE YOU SAID WE HAVE TO HOPE AND PRAY NO ONE GETS SICK AND THAT ALL THE CONFIRMED GUEST WILL MAKE IT THE DAY OF THE PARTY! :)

10/29/2009 4:16:37 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
HOW EXCITING WAS IT TO SEE DIONE'S BEAUTIFUL GIRLS ALYSSA AND AMANDA AND JESSI'S HANDSOME SON LEVI IN THE DISPLAY HOLIDAY PROMOTIONAL HOLIDAY CARDS THEY SHIPPED US FOR THE PARTY?!!! THAT IS AWESOME!!!! THEY ARE PERFECT LITTLE MODELS! HOW EXCITING!!!:)

10/29/2009 2:03:58 AM - 001024320926
Joey I remember these pictures from last year and I love them just as much now as then!!!! They're great!!
I missed you Joey :) It was a good thing I had the iPhone to be some what connected or I might have went into withdrawls :)
Sooo looking forward to the Shutterfly party!! Got the party pack and I am too excited!!!
San Francisco was awesome and I have a bunch of pictures to upload, so many it makes my head hurt. I'm uploading over 200 from my iPhone right now :)

10/29/2009 12:58:58 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey! Is your internet service back? How are things on your neck of the woods? FYI I have added some cruise photos to my travel site so stop on by and have a look when you get some free time. Have a great evening and take care.

10/28/2009 5:54:27 PM - 001036346682
Oops! I just added my tree picture and I created it's own album. I don't want to mess it up anymore so will just leave it. Sorry!

10/28/2009 1:23:00 PM - 002080359451
Hey, Joey! Good to see you back around. Thanks for stopping in! Happy Wednesday. :)

10/27/2009 9:42:47 PM - 002059624475
Hey Joey, I saw your comment on Jean's site about the Amazing Race. Scared crapless - can I use that phrase?? It's a good one!! I wouldn't even be able to go down the slide (with my neck issues) so, I'd be out anyway. I'm a little bit competitive though. Canaan knew Mika was going to be frightened. And I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have gone down even if the "Trotters" said what they said. However, I wouldn't have bugged her, I would have just let the 2 more minutes go by. Hope youre doing well - back to work - I've got 15 more minutes before I clock out :)

10/26/2009 6:38:30 PM - 000085599530
Hey Joey...glad to see you back on line. Our fall has been really warm and it seems weird. But they say cooler temps this week. Thanks for stopping by my site. Working on a portrait section of the photography page..photos of kids other than my own! I am trying to branch out....

10/26/2009 5:14:09 PM - 002029331419
Hey Joey!! A Leaf Fight!! Woo Hoo...I'm In!! LOL!! Oh my gosh...I'm loving your headers! Is there much color stil around your area? You've already had snow flurries...so I know your days ahead of us!
For riding in a balloon...yeah, you have to pay..unless you know a pilot. Or you can chase crew and if it's a good day and long flights..one might get to ride that way too. I've flown twice! I'm Scared of heights..but the sensation is that your standing in a basket...and everything else is moving! I can handle that!
Everyone is well ....at the moment...I'd sure like to keep it that way! ;0)
Catch ya later girl!

10/26/2009 5:52:27 AM - 002020640084
WOW JOEY THANKS SO MUCH FOR CHECKING OUT AND COMMENTING ON ALL 3 BOOKS I POSTED THIS WEEK! YOUR COMMENTS MADE ME SMILE AND GIGGLE!!! YOUR SUCH A DOLL!!! HAVE A HAPPY DAY!:)

10/25/2009 6:59:39 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I LOVE THE FALL HEADERS OF EVERYONE PLAYING IN THE LEAVES!!! HOW PERFECT!!! WHAT FUN! I LOVE IT!!! :)

I READ YOUR EMAIL AND WILL REPLY TONIGHT! ENJOY YOUR DAY! :)

10/25/2009 4:17:01 PM - 000093706714
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the shots of the kids playing in the leaves! GREAT JOB! Our October has been so drabby too! The colors are gorgeous but the wet, damp air has made getting outdoors not so appealing. :-( Felt good to see the kids giggling and playing! Big hugs Cheri

10/25/2009 5:38:10 AM - 002035648808
Hi Joey....I love your header pictures on this page. They are so cute! I want to try the new feature that builds a photo book for you. Do you have to buy the book to post it to your share site. I have noticed several of my shutterfly buddies have this pics in these photo books on display. I hope you have had a great week-end. I am going to look around your site some more. Talk with you later!

10/22/2009 3:38:37 AM - 002029331419
Joey! Hey Girl...stopping by to see whatcha been up too! I think I saw that you guys have had snow this week?! Already!? Are you still walking at the gym? Let me loook around and see what's new!

10/21/2009 11:02:37 PM - 002055694880
JOEY!!!!! Here I am! They will probably shut me off tomorrow! Figures once it gets to working. Thank you for the birthday wishes and thanks for thinking of me for the other thing to!! I miss everyone so much! I have over 600 photos that I need to upload and it won't let me!!! Makes me so mad. Well chicken still cooking. Gotta run!

10/21/2009 10:44:20 PM - 002065887734
Large Mister Scarecrow on Sis' porch is flirting with me! If you blur your eyes he is almost winking. (due to his hat!) I love it!!!

10/21/2009 10:41:34 PM - 002065887734
Hello, Your site looks GREAT...as usual. I checked back at Summerbook 09. What I wanted to is about the templates for the pages. I haven't seen those & so I haven't used them. Where did you find them? Actually, I'm pretty much new as far as knowing anything. The book is great & the pages are great & I don't know where to find the template for those pages. That was it.

Next question, How do you change your home page? Do you just start from scratch? I hate to lose all those photos & layouts I had, but don't know what to do. that is question #2.

Take your time, and if you don't have time to get back to me, that's ok. I know you are very busy. I'm not trying to be demanding.

We just got back from our trip. It was cut short due to mom's illness & hospitalization, so hoping to get back to my aunt & the deer a bit later this fall. Missed you guys and I'm just starting to know you!

10/20/2009 1:01:57 PM - 001003494861
OK, now I'm just hungry......I'd like to see some of those oranges on white seamless with a great big softbox...mmmmmmmmm. Think I'll go to the store. ;-) It's been a while since I stopped by, and your site looks great. Nice sunset shots!! Keep up the good work.

There is so much heart in your photography.

10/19/2009 10:48:28 PM - 001024320926
Joey, how's it going? Stop by to say Hi and see what's new. I didn't get to talk with you today :( Maybe tomorrow :)

10/19/2009 7:49:10 PM - 001036346682
Too funny Joey! Next time hit the Liquor Store and take a few. Pics I mean!

10/19/2009 6:42:45 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Just wanted to stop by and say HI! Hope your weekend was good. Did you have any special plans? It was cold and rainy here and I long for a cool summer day.

Hope your family is all well too. Anyway just want to say hello and I'll be by soon to see what is new on your site. I hope to have a few more photos from the vacation up later this week too.

Take care.

10/19/2009 5:16:39 AM - 002065887734
Hello, Joey! I got home a bit early & can't wait to get back. We had a wonderful visit with my aunt...rain all the time but for half a day & it's still gorgeous!!! Hope you are well. I need help! I am asking you shutterfly gurus for some help. I don't know how you change your site "Home" page! Do you just delete everything & start from scratch? I have about 268 wonderful photos of deer, and can't wait to get them on my site. (That's a close guess.) Missed you all, Barbara Jean

10/19/2009 3:56:59 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey! Hope the weekend was good to you!! That's for all the emails :) love talking with you :)
We craved pumpkins tonight and I couldn't help but think someday Kyleigh will have these pictures much like you have the great one of you on your FAll page :)

10/15/2009 3:09:55 AM - 001024320926
Love the headers and the scarecrows!! Love the season change going on in here!!
Thanks for looking at my book today, I threw it together, but I like it! Now I have to finih the NM and San Diego books!! You are a book making queen, I aspire to be the same.
How's the weather there? I heard from my friend in Nebraska that it snowed there, she said a 'light dusting'. It's been cold one day, rain the next day and hot the next day here. My sinus' don't know if they are coming or going.

10/14/2009 6:38:23 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks for stopping by. My mom's surgery went well and needs a follow up exam next week. She is pleased that she can see when it comes to distance. Thanks for asking about her.

So glad you like the new page..so far. Hope to have more by the weekend. I took over 1000 photos. That doesn't include Joe and the girls. I'd say we have close to 2000 pictures. In time when i settle in I'll make a book.

Hope your day is going well. take care.

10/14/2009 4:20:01 PM - 002029331419
Joey!! Thanks for coming by! Are you Ballooned out yet?! ha ha... Look at your color in your headers and the scarecrows! Cute!!
Hey...if you have pics of you and anyother Sfly site owner...come put them up on my Sfly pals page and put the name of their site on there! ok!! ... I have a little time...I'm going to go look around! :0)

10/13/2009 6:58:40 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Love your new header...WOW. I hope you are well. FYI I have added 1 new page on my travel site of some cruise pictures. Come on by and have a look. Love the fall decorations. You have a site that is so nice to come to and explore. Thanks for always sharing. Have a great day.

10/13/2009 1:37:57 AM - 002020640084
BY THE WAY JOEY,
I LOVE ALL THE FALL ADDITIONS TO YOUR SITE!!! WHAT FUN! I LOVE AUTUMN AND HALLOWEEN! WILL YOU GET DRESSED UP FOR HALLOWEEN, HOST A HALLOWEEN PARTY THIS YEAR OR ATTEND ANY HALLOWEEN PARTIES?

10/13/2009 1:36:44 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I'M SOOO SORRY I DIDN'T GET BACK 2 YOU I WAS OUT OF TOWN! I JUST EMAILED YOUR REQUEST AND HOPE IT MAKES THE DEADLINE! YOUR SUCH A SWEETHEART FOR HELPING OUT!! :)

10/13/2009 1:16:58 AM - 000096883315
Hi Joey, just stopping by to see if you were snowed in. Don't know how ya'll do it, I would be stir crazy. But around here a dusting paralizes the whole town. We southerners don't know how to drive on snow. Glad to see you are able to get out and get subsistance.

10/12/2009 6:47:49 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey! Just stopping by to say hello. Love the new fall pics - your sisters porch looks ever so festive. I have been very slooow in getting into the Fall spirit. I'm going to try to force myself to get out and snap some Fall pictures this weekend if it's not way too cold. Love the new header - for some reason it makes me hungry! Have a great week and talk soon!

10/10/2009 10:37:54 PM - 002029331419
Joey! Hey Girl!! Thanks so much for coming to play on the Just for Fun page!! And tomorrow..more AR!! yea! Yes! They are the Globtrotter guys....and I am amazed when I see them squeeze into those little taxi's too! ha! So much fun!
We had such a good time last weekend...I can't believe it was already a week ago! Will I ever get my pics in orer?...I'm still uploading and I took even more last night and this morning!
But I want to see what you came up with at the Grocery Store!! :0) Seriously...I think some of them have the most amazing displays!!...that's why I use silk flowers in the fall!!LOL!...and I don't have to water them! They go away when I'm out putting up Christmas lights!! LOL!
Ok, I gotta scoot...but will come back again before the weekend is over! :0)

10/10/2009 7:33:34 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey! I am finally getting back into my routine and hitting the sites! I have missed doing that. I know we email but I still like seeing your pictures and looking at your site :)
Thanks for stopping and looking at the New Mexico pictures! We had so much fun, a total blast!! Definitely going back! You should consider it, we would love your company :)
Girl! my weather icon said it was snowing there, light flurries!! I was amazed! At night after the sun went down and before it came up in the morning it was cold in New Mexico, I loved it!! That's what all my scarfs were about :):)
Do you have big Halloween plans?

10/10/2009 2:21:01 PM - 002059624475
Joey, Madeline is so cute. My grandkids are constantly jumping on our beds, and I tell them "No" and "Stop that!" while they smile & giggle .

10/9/2009 2:37:05 AM - 002065887734
Hi, Joey. I'm still supposed to be packing & haven't. Think I'll be using my aunt's washer & dryer. I just put my comments on last night or early this morning (I think). You got back to me immediately! (I think) Yes, that's the contest & am glad you'll do another. I think it's important to help out with good medical causes. So many places have to work on a shoestring...if we could all help a little it would be a blessing. Coming back in 7-10 days. See ya then!

10/8/2009 12:29:21 PM - 002090753714
ur daughter is so cute

10/8/2009 7:16:05 AM - 002065887734
Hi, Joey. I used your email and it loops me right back to Shutterfly and here. Guess I can't email you. Of course, I'm the one that did 2 maybe 3 of those view where you are sign ins & none are right. I need to find out how to delete the extra ones. I was going to ask you something but I forgot...just remembered. I lost my debit/credit card & they are issuing me a new one. I saw that you were trying to raise funds in a contest ending soon. I can't make the end of the date. Would like to do something when I get my card, but it won't make the contest. I'm sorry. Also, while not getting your email right I found a blog. I don't know how many meds you take, but I have to 'pack' mine out one day of the week for the whole week. That might help, so you don't get confused. It seems every month at least one or two meds have changed color and/or shape. In the 'good old days' the pills looked the same for YEARS! The ambulance ended up here once, so I don't forget to pack them out anymore. (I'm lots older than you, so I can pretend I'm an older relative giving help, I'm not trying to be bossy.). My best to you. Leaving Friday for 10 days. Want to know some secrets of your book making when I return...if you're willing to share. If not, that's ok too. I can always look at yours. Good Night for now.

Hey Girl, After a long summer off and dealing my some personal issues, I am now back. Don't know how much time I will have as I am enrolled in photography school and watch my grandson full-time. I am going to try to and keep up with everyone as best as I can. Hope no one thought I had abandoned them...just went through a rough patch and needed to restructure some things in my life. :) Missed you guys though :)

10/7/2009 5:33:51 AM - 002065887734
Hello, again. I finished my book & am quite surprised at how much better I feel. Hope you are feeling a bit better also. I think you do GREAT visiting sites!!! Thank you for the contest info. I didn't know anything about it. I appreciate all you do to keep us informed...and motivated. If you read any of my journals from yesterday, your acts of kindness seemed to just pop up. (My English teachers did NOT like free style prose. They would be soooo disappointed in me.) Thanks for your encouragement. It was a difficult day & you helped so much. I am trying to get to visit an elderly aunt in W.Va. She's not well & I love her so much. Leaving Thurs, so will catch up with you when I return. Take care, have fun, and take lots of pictures! Barbara

10/6/2009 6:54:59 AM - 002065887734
Hi, again. This should tell you how tired I am. I didn't even notice Madeline jumping on the bed!!!! That is one of the most precious photos I have seen...it rates up there with a very few of my grandsons! It is perfect. Now I can go to bed with a chuckle. Your photo is wonderful. Wonderful subject, composition, color, action...WOW

10/6/2009 6:48:38 AM - 002065887734
Hello, Joey. I was so happy to hear from you. Thanks for writing. It seems when you need a lift, something special happens. Your note was my "something special" this week. Thank you. Yes, I am a survivor! I have other issues which are not easy for me to deal with. I got to sleep this a.m. around 5:36. Tonight it is 2:46 & I'm going to give it a try. Wish me luck. I will be in touch. Again, thank you for helping out this week. Barbara Jean p.s. I am still so pumped about your marathon. I am proud to know someone who was in it, and I am proud to know someone who is trying to get the word out about little known illnesses. You take care. My very best to you & those close to you.

10/6/2009 3:18:19 AM - 002035648808
Hi Joey... Could you send me your e-mail address. My shutterfly site says that your address is invalid. I copied it from some of your messages and it still says invalid. I don't know what the problem is. Thanks a million. I love your headers and sunset book. Can you explain what you mean by it builds a book for you. Is that the new feature that Shutterfly has? I have seen them pop up beside some of my albums. I am going to take some time and look around your site some more. I enjoy everything I see. You do amazing work:) Hope you have a great week!

10/6/2009 2:56:12 AM - 000076820331
Love the "sunsets". I see why you could be "obcessed"! Sorry I haven't been by in awhile. My surgery put my way back on looking around at the sites. Just plain didn't have the energy or ambition. :( Hope to be around more now. Your site is looking very nice!

10/5/2009 7:41:55 PM - 000085599530
Ps...have you seen Cams sunset photos on her share site...wow..You will love them!

10/5/2009 7:41:20 PM - 000085599530
You headers made me smile!! Love it.. Hope all is well with you. I havent seen you about in a few days....

10/4/2009 11:13:48 PM - 002059624475
Hooray Joey!! Good job, how awesome!! Hey, just an FYI, Lisa and Jamie are in NM visiting Jean at the Balloon Festival. You'll have to stop in and check on their new pictures they will take - I know they're having too much fun!!! I wanted to go but, I'm saving my travel money for Sacramento. I'm taking Mike (my husband) there for a surprise birthday present! :) Have a great week and keep up the good work girl :)

I did want to say thank you for all your messages of comfort over the passing of my Aunt, she was a wonderful person!! It went as well as things like that can go.

Hope all is well and I will e you tomorrow!

9/26/2009 10:34:09 PM - 002065887734

Picture of the week is a fantastic idea! I'll def have to switch to that if I can't keep up! :)

9/22/2009 8:53:15 PM - 000085599530
Thanks for the comments on the Golden Gate book. I was just playing around again. The soccer photos look great .....:)

9/22/2009 3:23:35 PM - 001024320926
Joey I love the soccer pictures!! Great headers!! Look how active they are, makes me tried looking at them :) :)
Can you believe that it's fall already??!! I love this time of year but I know that in some areas it brings some pretty rough weather in winter. Wish we could share when we needed to.
Joanne will be leaving for England in 2 days and setting sail in 4 days!! She is going to be having so much fun :) I can't wait to see all her pictures!!
I leave for NM in a week, I can hardly believe it's gotten here so fast. I get nervous about flying about a week out, already feeling the butterflies in my gut :~ It's going to be fun though.
Julie's husband, Brandon, is turning 40, I wonder if they had a big shin dig :)
Hope Cheri is doing ok, bummer news about her leg and the re-op.
Better get going, I'll probably e you later.

9/21/2009 10:06:01 PM - 000084870684

Thanks! That was def my favorite shot (besides a couple good ones of my bf!). The wedding was great. They've been together for 7 years, so it was wonderful to see them take the next step! :) Hope you've had a wonderful weekend!

9/20/2009 6:06:51 AM - 002035648808
Hey Joey, I tried to add you to my site but it says your e-mail address is incorrect. I copied it and pasted it so I don't know what the problem is. Thanks:) Also, thanks for stopping by my site and leaving comments. HOw do you like living close to 10 mile lake. I bet it gets really cold there! Some of the locals say that in Jan. it is not unusual for the temps to get 40 below 0! :(

9/19/2009 1:33:23 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I forget to come by when I'm emailing you, makes me think I have already visited. So her I am :)
Hope all is well and that summer hasn't completely left you yet. You need a few more days of sun on your face :)
I'm going to look around.

9/19/2009 10:40:24 AM - 002080359451
Thank you SO SO much for all your help! I am now thinking it may have been my computer. Stay tuned for photos from my first wedding, hopefully to be posted by Monday!
Have a great weekend - Amber

9/19/2009 3:36:19 AM - 002035648808
Hi Joey... Where is the lake at in Minnesota that you took the picture on. It looks a lot like the lakes that we were on last week. It looks like you were there one day after we returned to Missouri. What part of Minnesota did you visit? You've got a great site. I am enjoying browsing on it and getting some inspiration for my own photo books and share site.

9/18/2009 3:03:21 AM - 001059933021
It was a pleasure to read your nice comment on my photobook! Thank you very much!

9/18/2009 1:05:25 AM - 002064737240
Hi Joey, Thanks for visiting and leaving a nice comment, come back anytime. I love your sunset pics, and the pic of the week is amazing. I'll have to come back and check out the rest of your pages later, but from what I've seen, very nice work.

9/17/2009 4:26:49 PM - 000093706714
EXCELLENT pciture of the week. That is MY kind of water.......silky smooth....just waiting for a waterskier to glide across her!

No waterskiing for a while longer - but no worries, next season will be here soon enough. I will be heading back into surgery. I meet with surgeon on Tuesday to discuss the extent of the knee damage and what needs to be done. Will keep you posted.

How are you making out on the walking? I bet you have surpassed the 2 mile mark! GO GIRL....

Hugs
Cheri

9/16/2009 9:15:11 PM - 002077860514
hey Joey!!!! I like the "where are you from?" app. on ur page. College is cool, I've started now. I still have'nt put the videos of my songs up yet. It is more complicated than I first thought. Hopefully soon though!

9/16/2009 2:16:29 PM - 001076975951
Joey, I agree with Jean...love the Picture of the week. Just beautiful. Joey, did you know Amazing race is coming back on Sept 27? Over at Jean's site we are picking 2 teams we think will make it to the end. Have a great day and take care.

9/16/2009 3:32:58 AM - 002029331419
Hi Joey! Wow nice new header pictures...it must have been hard to take the sunset pics down...they were fantastic!!
Your Picture of the week is beautiful! Clouds and water- what a great combo!
Have a great rest of the week!...it seems to be flying by!

9/16/2009 3:21:15 AM - 000084870684
like the change I am going to look around.

9/15/2009 1:34:18 PM - 001056488359
Thank you for visiting my site! I love the last photo in your new header. It is beautiful! It looks so relaxing and peaceful.

9/14/2009 10:20:21 PM - 000085599530
Look at you changing your site on me.... I was here earlier today and did get a chance to look around and now your headers have changed.....hee hee...

9/14/2009 4:04:23 PM - 002055694880
Hey there girl!! I have been horrible about visiting sites and the gallery as well. I am having a stressful day and hoping that all is gonna go better later today. I wanted to stop in and say I love the header! Those little tree faces are too cute and the photobook. That is lovely!! Simply amazing!!!

9/14/2009 2:17:09 PM - 001076975951
Joey,
I also wanted to say thanks for viewing by Birthday/Labor day pictures. And yes I enjoy reading your journal/blog and finding out more about Dystonia. Kudos to you for letting the everyday person learn about this condition and sharing your personal experience. I am sending you all good vibes and good wishes. Continue to let people be aware of Dystonia. keep up the good work. Blessings to you and I will visit again before the week is up. Have a great Monday Joey.

9/14/2009 1:50:02 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Joey,
 Thanks for stopping by. I'm glad you liked all my fall decorations on my gallery site.  I love how the stores decorate and had to take that photo of all the scarecrows lined up.   I can't believe the summer is almost over. It went by too fast and here in NYC we had rain almost the entire month of June. Plus with entire summer we only hit 90° only 4 times in August. I didn't mind but I can't recall that ever happening here.   But it does get cold here in NYC. Many times it is freezing especially in Jan. & Feb.and I hate the cold and snow.

I look forward to the Lake photos and it is sad you had to close up the trailer.  But when we feel cold we can view all the summer photo books, like you said to cheer us up and warm us up too.

Yes I have been to a Regis & Kelly show.  But that was about 10 years ago.  And it was fun.  You have to get there so early and wait on line.  I have also gone to see the Today Show and there are so many people there.  But I didn't get to see any big stars.  When Conan O'Brien was still in NYC we went to see his taping.  We did not get to see any good guest.  At least in my opinion.  We saw Ice T and Jenna Elfman.  Oh well.

Joey did you know that Amazing Race will be back Sept 27.  I remember you once said in your comment you are a fan.  So is Jean and her mom and sister Rhonda.  We are picking 2 teams we think will make it to the end.  The bios are on the CBS website. 

I am half way packed and I think by this weekend I will be 80% packed.  We leave on the 24 of this month and we will be staying in Southampton for 1 day before the cruise.  I can't believe it is almost here.  I am looking forward to this vacation.  Our last vacation was 2007.  I also hope to have tons of photos to share with you and all my shutterfly friends. 

I always enjoy coming here and exploring your site and it is great when you stop by and leave me such kind and thoughtful comments.  I truly appreciate it.   Joey have a great day.

9/14/2009 1:40:06 AM - 000085599530
OHHHH...What great sunsets...How did you dod that? Killer

9/13/2009 10:48:58 PM - 001056488359
I love your sunset pictures. Beautiful!!

9/13/2009 6:55:55 PM - 002082784596
nice sunset pictures.

9/13/2009 1:58:31 AM - 002066991916
Hi Joey- I like your sunset header photos, especially on the right side that is absolutely gorgeous! Anyway I would like to say Thank you for your wonderful greeting on my birthday last 9/9/9. I had alot of fun filled with my lovely husband and got alot of surprised that I didn't ever expect!

9/12/2009 5:07:50 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I meant to stop by yesterday. I left work thinking I would get online after I got home. The rain and an hour sit on the highway behind a wreck stopped that for me.
Sorry you couldn't get a group picture last weekend. I know what you mean, the group shot on my family page was an act of congress!! Seriously it took getting mad at my Dad to get him in the picture. It's so lame to act like that. I try to accomodate others when they ask for pictures, that's saying alot because I don't like having my picture taken. But I do it because it's important to the person asking, just like when I ask. Families aren't always the most cooporative.
Thanks for the comments on the Fall pictures, I'm ready for some cooler weather. It's been raining here since Yesterday, flooding at the lake I live near. I like the rain though :)
I will e you back on the emails just haven't gotten into my email as much lately. I go thru periods of doing that :)

9/12/2009 4:39:00 PM - 001043414385
Joey those header pics are amazing!

9/12/2009 3:13:32 PM - 001076975951
Joey, great sunset book that was pre designed by Shutterfly. It looks beautiful. I really like it. Have a great day.

9/10/2009 11:09:36 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey
Just love the sunset pics, wow. Hope all is well.
Barry

9/10/2009 7:39:17 PM - 001036346682
Beautiful pictures Joey. Wow!

9/9/2009 5:51:59 PM - 001024320926
Love the sultry color change Joey :) Those headers are wonderful :) How was the weekend? Were you able to get the group photo you wanted?
I need to get over to your blog, I haven't been there in a while. Do some catching up.
I haven't been in the Gallery either, need to get busy.

9/9/2009 12:58:11 AM - 001028842870

Joey,
By the way your flower book that you shared was moved to my gallery site. I would never delete your book. It is way too beautiful and I love that you shared it.
And thank you for all the kind and sweet comments you have added throughout my sites. You spread such joy and I thank you for that.

9/8/2009 1:37:34 PM - 001076975951

9/7/2009 10:19:55 PM - 000093706714
Hey Jo-Jo........How did you enjoy the lake? Hopefully the weather cooperated. It was GORGEOUS here. We stayed close to home (Rene was working on the vehicles) so I .....FINALLY GOT 2 albums completed! Yeah! It felt so good to be productive and I feel my creative juices flowing again.

I start PT tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes. Get your walking shoes on girl...it is time for us to PUMP IT UP!

Hugs honey.
Cheri

We love visitors.
Please allow me to share with you my vision, where there is no vision the people perish Prov. 29:18. The God's dream in my life into preaches Christ, His word in the power of Holy Spirit. i have been sent to bring faith (Romans 10:17) to the people of his world and to preach,teach them to know the truth( John8:32; 14:6)that shows them how to live godly lives. This truth gives them the confidence of eternal life, which is in Jesus the hope of our glory. In Hebrew 4:12 (please read) people in this world should have the idea of a personal attitude toward God that results in actions that are pleasing to God. These can only happen by people hearing the gospel of Christ being preached to them. In the power of the Holy Spirit who will convicts them to surrender their lives to Christ Jesus. After being saved, now they are taught the word of God (and being in fellowship with other believers) what we call to devote themselves to God.
He therefore is the devout (Godly) men, who lives no longer to their own will or their ways and spirit of the world, but the sole will of God, who consider God in everything who serve God in everything, who makes all the parts of his common life, parts of piety (Godliness), by doing everything in the name of God and under such rules as are conformable to his glory. This can only come to reality by emphasizing
by preaching the truth John8:32,36 and John12 :32 and the new believers to study word of God, prayer, and meditation upon God word by the help of Holy Spirit. They will walk in the spirit (Gal 15:25). They will be believers who are in a place hearing God's word preacher with Holy Ghost power. Get around people who are studying his word and who are speaking His word.And they will also witness to the other peoples about the love of Christ and His goodness of Christ Jesus Acts 1:8.
Still we will continue to Evangelize, person-to-person evangelism, open air meetings, fellowship mid week and every day morning prayers. Reaching out to Christ is our community. As the last election that resulted to political violence and killing, destruction of house and property, so many people are in hurting and needs God healing upon their lives that can only come through God's word the living word Jesus Christ and still reach out more for other parts of the country.
Dear pastor this is my vision would you please become co-laborers with me to serve with you, to see Christ is preached. In the power of Holy Spirit lives changed. Please I am requesting you to parnership with me in prayers,encouragement, and finacial support,and work with you, please support and make this God's dream in my life come to reality. May the Lord bless you and his favor be upon you. by so doing you will make many to have eternal life you will giving them hope for tomorrow and life in Christ Jesus they will get by preaching the Gospel please kindly we work together and God's work here in Kenya.
Please I will be waiting to hear from you.more so let the Lord guide you and lead you about this and He may speak you you we love you and that why we welcome you to Kenya come and bless honor ,glorify Lord Jesus in this place. Amen

JOEY,
SORRY, SOMETIMES AS I WRITING A LONG MESSAGE IT CLICKS ME OFF AND MY MESSAGES DISAPPEARS TO I LEFT PART OF THE MESSAGE BELOW! ANYWAYS, WHEN WE WERE SEARCHING FOR THE BUTTERFLY CONSERVATORY WE FOUND ONE OF OUR FAV RESTAURANTS EAST SIDE MARIO'S THAT WENT OUT OF BUSINESS OPENED UP AGAIN! WE USED TO GO EVERY YEAR TO CELEBRATE MY HUSBAND AND SON'S BDAYS AT EAST SIDE MARIO'S! THE ONE YEAR WE WENT AND IT WAS CLOSED DOWN, WE WERE SO DISAPPOINTED! ANYWAYS, WHEN WE HAD SEEN EAST SIDE MARIO'S WAS OPEN AND IN A NEW LOCATION WE WERE DETERMINED TO CONVINCE THE KIDS TO COME FOR OLD TIMES SAKE! SURPRISINGLY, MY KIDS JUMPED AT THE CHANCE TO SPENT THE DAY AT THE FALLS WITH US FOR THE 1 OUTING! THEN THE OTHER OUTING WAS WITH MY HUSBAND AND MARINA(NO AMOUNT OF BRIBING WORKED WITH JOE THAT DAY HE HAD PLANS! LOL!) SO THAT'S THE STORY OF HOW THE WHOLE ADVENTURE BEGAN! ISN'T THAT FUNNY THAT EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BOOK WAS ALL INSPIRED BY YOU, LISA, CONNIE, AND STARLA?!!! IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY SUMMER AND I HAVE THE 4 OF YOU TO THANK!!!! NOW I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL BOOK AND I WILL ALWAYS THINK OF HOW SPECIAL THIS BOOK IS AND HOW IT WAS CREATED! :)

8/20/2009 1:19:47 PM - 002020640084
WELL NOT TRIP BUT OUTINGS SINCE NIAGARA FALLS CANADA'S ATTRACTIONS ARE 40 MINUTES AWAY! LOL!!! IT TAKES 20 MINUTES TO GO OVER THE BORDER AND BE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY! CRAZY ISN'T IT?!!! WHAT'S MORE CRAZY IS THE PAST FEW SUMMERS WE HAVEN'T WENT AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF EVERYTHING NIAGARA FALLS HAS TO OFFER! I HAVE SOO MANY MORE AWESOME PHOTOS THAT I DIDN'T INCLUDE BECAUSE I TRY TO KEEP THE BOOKS UNDER 50 PAGES! ANYWAYS, WHEN I DISCOVERED CONNIE'S SHUTTERPALS BUTTERFLY PAGE I WANTED TO ADD BUTTERFLIES AND DIDN'T HAVE ANY BECAUSE I JUST TOOK FLOWER OR NATURE PICTURES FOR THE 2ND TIME SO I DIDN'T HAVE ANY! THE ONE DAY MY HUBAND AND I HAD PLANS AND IT RAINED SO I SAID LETS GO TO THE BUTTERFLY CONSERVATORY SO I CAN GET PRETTY BUTTERFLIES TO ADD TO CONNIE'S PAGE! MY HUSBAND WAS UP FOR THE ADVENTURE SINCE WE HADN'T BEEN TO THE BUTTERFLY CONSERVATORY IN OVER 5 YEARS! WE PLANNED ON DOING SOMETHING OUTDOORS AND OUR PLANS WERE RUINED SO I THOUGHT OF SOMETHING INDOORS AND MY HUSBAND AGREED! HE'S SO SWEET! :)

8/20/2009 1:10:25 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR SWEET COMMENTS ON MY LASTEST POSTING FROM OUR 3 SHORT OUTINGS TO NIAGARA FALLS CANADA THAT WAS INSPIRED BY YOU, LISA, STARLA, & CONNIE! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN TO READ EVERYONE'S COMMENTS! I WAS CRACKING UP! I HAD A BLAST WITH BOTH OF THE KIDS ON THE ONE OUTING, THE OUTING WITH MY HUSBAND AND MARINA, AND JUST MY HUSBAND ON THE OTHER OUTING! I REALLY ENJOYED MAKING THE BOOK SO MUCH! :)

I'M SO HAPPY YOU MADE A FLOWER BOOK, ITS BEAUTIFUL!!! NOW I REALLY NEED TO TAKE YOUR ADVICE AND GET A BOOK GOING FROM THE FLOWERS I TOOK FROM MY GARDEN! :)

I HAVE GOOD NEWS ABOUT THE 4X4 SIZE BOOKS! YOU KNOW HOW I LOVED YOUR EASTER 4X4 BOOK AND I SAID I WOULD HAVE TO TRY THAT SIZE! WELL I NEVER DID AND WHEN I HEARD THEY WERE GONE IN THE STORE I WAS SO UPSET! I WANTED TO SEE IF THE MAKE ONE LIKE THIS WOULD LET YOU MAKE THAT SIZE SINCE I NEVER CREATED ONE YET AND IT WORKED!!!!! IF YOU WANT TO CREATE MORE 4X4'S GO TO THE GALLERY OR ON YOUR OWN EASTER BOOK JUST CLICK THE MAKE ONE LIKE THIS TAB AND IT WILL WORK! JUST THOUGHT I WOULD TELL YOU SINCE I SEEN YOU AND ANN TALKING ABOUT IT ON GG CENTRAL! I STARTED CREATING SOME AND NOW I REALLY HAVE TO KICK IT IN HIGH GEAR TO FINISH THEM UP! :)

8/20/2009 12:19:37 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Great new flower book. I love Gerber daisies and your shots of them are wonderful :)
The picture of the week is very fun, love it!! Hope you had a good time camping even though it rained! I'm reading your weather icons and it looks like it's raining right now :( I wish it would rain here, we need a good soaking, all the plants are dying or dead.
I should be in the kitchen coking but I really don't feel like it, they may have to fend for themselves :):)
I may stroll over to the FB later, depends on how tired I get later, the next sound out of me could be zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

8/19/2009 6:51:38 PM - 001036346682
I was looking through all your pics (while talking to mom for the past hour!). I was cracking up at Bambu in his/her life vest. I'm assuming girl since it was pink. How cute. I was trying to find a pic of your family's camper. Is there one somewhere? Love the pic of the week. You should have used the one of you running!

8/18/2009 3:57:25 AM - 002055694880
Hey there! Don't worry about getting the girls messed up I do it all the time...and I'm their mother. Usually they are doing something together for me to be getting onto both of them. I love the new headers. Bummer that it rained on you huh? I'm gonna look around.

8/18/2009 3:11:35 AM - 002029331419
Joey...You have some really fun Photos of the Week!! I love it!
Yes! The surpise party was fantastic! I"LL be working on my Anniversary page when we get back and it'll have so many of the fun party pics!
We leave on Wed for San Francisco - I'm sooo excited!

8/17/2009 8:23:53 PM - 001024320926
I can't believe it rained on your weekend!! I wish I could share our heat and sun with you :) I'll be back after work to look around just wanted you to know I was here :)

8/17/2009 5:55:21 PM - 001076975951
Joey I LOVE your new header and the photo of the week too. JUST FABULOUS!!!

Too bad that your weekend had rain but the good part you were with family.

Stephanie & Victoria will be going on the cruise too and their work places do know...big relief no problem with them going.  Victoria is starting her 3 week at work.  Still learning the ins and outs.  She is more behind the scenes with how they sell air time/commercials and not in front of the camera.   Although she says her "dream job" is to be a travel journalist.  We love to watch Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel.  Our cruise is about 40 days away!!!!  I actually booked the cruise about a whole year ago.  So I've been waiting over 365 days for this vacation to come.  Plus it gives me time to save $$. 

I hope you get a chance to travel somewhere real soon and then I'd love to see you Travel book.  And of course I'll share my photos once I return and upload my pics.   Have a great
 day Joey.

8/17/2009 4:56:19 PM - 000093706714
Hey honey.......I think you were just being extra sweet and sent all of the sunshine my way this past weekend! We had some unexpected company and decided to head off to a local park and had the most wonderful day. I am sorry to hear about the rain your way...but I am sure in wonderful JO-JO style, you found a way to make it sunny on the inside!
Big Hugs girl.........
Cheri

8/17/2009 3:33:25 AM - 002059624475
Love the new flowers at the top Joey. We ppulled off a surprise 30th anniversary party for Jean and her husband this past weekend. We all drove to Albuquerque, it was so much fun. I'll try to have some pictures of it by the middle of the week for you to see :) Hope you're doing well, have a great week!!

8/16/2009 8:31:13 PM - 002082784596

Hi Joey I hope you're having a ton of fun on the lakes this weekend!!

8/14/2009 2:37:13 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks for stopping by.
 Yes my dear you can add my site links to the Gallery Central...I appreciate that.  Thank you.

Victoria is glad to be at work.   She is working for Meredith Corp.  They own CBS TV stations across the USA and publish magazines too.   She is on the TV side of the company.  Although the main office is in Iowa, thank goodness NYC also has offices too.  Big relief she didn't have to move. 

Vacation is about 6 weeks away and I am so excited!!!!!  I'm like a kid in the candy store with happiness.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend at the lake and don't forget to snap away. 

8/14/2009 4:03:54 AM - 002055694880

Hi Joey! Sorry, it's been a while since I was last on shutterfly, I've been busy with registering for dual college credit classes. To answer your questions, Yes. I'd LOOOOVE to be out of state (even though I do love Texas) and on my own. I am not going where any of my current friends are planning to go, but that is fine with me I love to make new friends too. I do plan to live in the college dorms for at least the first two years and then try to get my own apartment. We'll see how that goes. As soon as I get my license I'm going to start working weeends so I can save up. I plan on working part-time during college too. All in all it will be a new and exiting chapter for me. Thanks for the advice though! I'll take all I can get. I'll come back soon hopefully and check out more of your site. :)

Hi Joey, love the picture of the week!!!! Love the headers!!! How was your weekend?? I survived camping, almost melted but survived. I'll post pictures later today :) Hope all is well!!

8/10/2009 5:47:34 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Just wanted to stop by and say Hello. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. I think I'll just have a look around and see what's new on your site. Have a great day.

8/9/2009 3:11:42 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR SWEET COMMENT ON MY LATEST BOOK I POSTED IN THE GALLERY! IT PUT A HUGE SMILE ON MY FACE!
I HAVE SO MANY NEW PAGES ON MY SITE NOW! LOL!!! I MADE A RENAISSANCE PAGE AND A PAGE FROM THE BILLS TRAINING CAMP PAGE(MY HUSBAND, SON, & HIS FRIENDS WENT TOGETHER AND MY HUSBAND TOOK THE PHOTOS)! MY HOLIDAY PAGE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS BUT I ADDED A BUNCH OF MASON'S 1ST CHRISTMAS! I STARTED A NIAGARA FALLS PAGE AND WILL ADD MORE PHOTOS THIS WEEK! THE SHARE SITES ARE SO MUCH FUN!

I LOVE YOUR NEW CLOUD BOOK YOU JUST POSTED! :)

HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A FANTASTIC WEEKEND! :)

8/8/2009 4:05:18 PM - 002075508000
joey-

thanks for being reminded. and that i was apart of it is inspiration in itself, for me. your 'adoration' of those feels great, like a proud parent, haha(which i know nothing of). and when i take these i just have my eyes 'open' to all this around us, not just looking but actually seeing. its all pretty amazing. sometimes its hard to do, but if i just try to relax and forget about everything else i can actually feel the weight of the day lift off my shoulders. the better i feel the better(i think) the pictures turn out. but, sometimes i cant feel good until i take good pictures.... its an endless process. i dont do too much editing, colors and shadows. just try to bring out what i think the image is trying to say, in my mind.. haha.

8/8/2009 3:12:39 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Just wanted to wish you a wonderful weekend and hope you get to go to the lake. Take care and many blessing to you.

8/8/2009 1:13:09 PM - 001003494861
Hi Joey, Thanks for stopping by the FB page! It was wonderful to have my whole family together once again, even if only for an afternoon. I have a ton more pictures to post, arrrgh, but it's gonna take me months to get through them all!!! Ahhh, the joy of photography!!!

8/6/2009 3:29:39 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Love the photo of Abby with the flowers...great shot. How are you do this week? Any big plans for the weekend, are you going to the lake?

I have some new snapshots on my gallery site so feel free to stop by and have a look. Take care Joey and have a great day.

8/6/2009 4:13:04 AM - 002079596131
Hey I wanted to THANK you for the beautiful comment you left on my Live Laugh Love album. You have some very impressive books yourself. It's supposed to be delivered tomorrow! I'm very excited!

8/6/2009 3:45:26 AM - 002029331419
Hey Joey! Glad you came by the other day! We are taking off again this weekend...not as many trees where were going - but we'll be close to the Alpaca Ranch again, and I hope to stop there!! We might get rain this weekend, which would be nice - cool things off! It was like 105 today - and it's still hot tonight! Are you going to the Lake this weekend?

8/5/2009 6:22:34 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, sorry I meant to get by this morning. So how did the sleepover go? Did you get to go to the park this morning? I hope so. Did she have to go home early? Parents.......what do you with 'em?! :) :)
I love popcorn!! I had some from Target and it was soooo good, I should go back and get 10 more bags :) :) Maybe that's too much, ok, ok 5 more bags :)
Yep going camping with the family this weekend, could get a little scary!! My sister in laws are nuts!! Shhhhh don't tell them but that's what I love the most!! I will have my camera in hand so no worries about catching some interesting shots...........if I sit back long enough they'll crack and snap I'll have them!! :) :)
Been running around in the Gallery this morning :) Love it in there. I want to make a book so bad.
Thanks for adding your picture to the showcase page :) You look good in there :)

8/5/2009 12:59:09 AM - 002055694880
Read your blog. How's your ankle?? How neat was it to take the kids along with you to the gym. That is fantastic! And they were good! That is great. Tell MOM not to worry Abby will be fine...Jack was right? Is that his name....I think it is.....Sorry. Kind of out of it. Just ate entirely too much supper and full to my eyeballs!!! Yeah Jack. That's right.

8/4/2009 9:43:58 PM - 002055694880
Hey there Joey!! How are you?!?! How are things? THings are slowing down around here for now....hopefully by the end of this week it will be better. We have planned a camping trip tho. A short little get away! I love the pic of the week. She is so sweet and the headers are great! Gonna look around.

8/3/2009 7:57:17 PM - 001024320926
Ohhhh she's so sweet, love that picture of the week Joey :) The headers are great, I meant to tell you that last time but forgot.

8/3/2009 3:50:35 AM - 002029331419
Joey! Hey Girl! I love your Pedi Pics!! I love a good pedicure - your niece is going to be hooked on those things for life now! :0) What a cute pic of the week...she has beautiful eyes!
I read your blog about your foot...ugh! Listen to those trainers and you'll be up and at it in no time! And Good On ya ( I have the same cousin as Rhonda...he he) for sticking with your routine to the gym and working on the strength training...even if you cannot be in full distance training! :0)
Have a great week girl! :0)

8/2/2009 10:25:47 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I hadn't noticed the guestmap numbers last week, so busy. But you're right I think ours are the same, I'm pretty sure there are duplicates but I haven't gone in there to figure out how to delete the duplicates :) It's a fun to see people on there though.
How's the foot girlie?
I drove to Oklahoma to visit an old friend yesterday, it was a nice drive and a wonderful visit too. I'll post pictures and update the journal tomorrow. It was HOT!!! I thought I might melt at times. It took about 3 1/2 hours to get there, I stayed all day and got home about 10 last night.
Hope the weekend was good to you!!

8/2/2009 9:07:44 PM - 002059624475
Joey, I forgot to tell you I found your blog, I thanked Starla for helping me find it and you've done a great job writing it. I'll be reading your postings to see how you're progressing!! As my cousin in Australia says, "Good on ya". Go Girl!!

8/2/2009 8:33:30 PM - 002059624475
Joey! I love your new Home page, the changes are awesome!! I gotta get busy with my updates before the snow starts flying :)

8/2/2009 7:31:48 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
THE HEADER PHOTOS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE THE ONE GORGEOUS PHOTO OF YOU AND JACK! PRICELESS! YOU ARE SO PHOTOGENIC! THE ONE OF ABBY WITH HER MANICURE IS SO ADORABLE!

I LOVE THE PHOTO OF THE WEEK OF ABBY AND THE FLOWERS! WHAT A LITTLE MODEL ABBY IS! I LOVE HER BEAUTIFUL COLOR EYES AND THE LONG EYELASHES! BEAUTIFUL GIRL! :)

I ADDED A NEW PAGE TO MY SITE FROM THE RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL IN STERLING, NY! I ALSO GOT SOME REALLY COOL PHOTOS OF BEES, BEETLES, & BUTTERFLIES FROM MY GARDEN YESTERDAY THAT I ADDED TO MY HOME PAGE!

HOPE YOU HAVE A HAPPY DAY! :)

8/2/2009 3:58:34 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, LOVE the new header photos...just beautiful. And of course Abby with the flowers in the photo of the week. AWESOME!!! Hope you are doing well and keeping busy. I think I'll just have a look around and see what is new. Have a wonderful day and take care.

8/2/2009 2:37:07 PM - 002052858931
Love your site! You have some great shots and A LOT of wonderful memories! Keep up the good work.

8/2/2009 4:09:42 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
WOW! I LOVE THE LAKE PAGE! HOW DID I EVER MISS THAT AWESOME PAGE?!!! I LOVE IT! YOU SHOULD DO A BOOK OF THE LAKE! YOU HAVE SO MANY GORGEOUS PHOTOS!

HOPE YOUR ENJOYING YOUR WEEKEND! :)

7/31/2009 2:48:27 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, This week hasn't been my best week but it's Friday and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now :) Big sigh of relief!!
How's your foot??

7/30/2009 2:31:45 AM - 000031826072
Oh yes, the header of Tom and David cracked me up...what a hoot!

7/30/2009 2:30:47 AM - 000031826072
Hey there Josie Sue! I think we were both trying to get caught up on our site hopping at the same time the other day...whew - that can wear you out and I always feel like I'm so behind!

Thanks for all your warm and wonderful comments on my books - you are always such an upper! I'm on another roll - I just posted the Venice book after tinkering with it a bit. It's my latest fav because it reminds me of Venice and my honey...and romance - so many of my fav things.

Hope you have having the bestest of weeks, my dear. Don't be a stranger! XXXO

7/29/2009 9:15:40 PM - 001024320926
Joey, Jean is so right. I am the oldest of six kids and I've been called every name til she got to the right one and sometimes I got the combo name too :) :)
How's it going? What's going on with your foot? Why the ice? What happened? Take it easy. Calm down and tell me what happened!!! Wait I'm the one freaking out, sorry :) Hope it isn't bad.
Work is beating me up!!! I don't have time to blink must like cruise the Gallery or even the sites. I'm doing it now out of shear defience!! I am grateful to have a great job, it's just really, really insane right now. Hey, did you hear Joanne's daughter Victoria got a job, now that is great news!!
I wanted to tell you that I watched the video to the left and found mtself crying because I loved it soooo much :)

7/29/2009 5:51:52 AM - 002070316626
Hello Joey, and thank you for your nice comment on my site, yes we sometimes have much snow in the wintertime. This year it was a huge amount of snow. I`m living in the south of Norway in a little town called Skien, have a nice day and enjoy life, PS. I like the bird picture at the bottom of this site :-)

7/29/2009 3:01:21 AM - 002029331419
Hey Joey!! I'm sorry that I've called you by some other names!!...I think it's like when my Mom would be mad at one of us girls..and she'd start from the top of the name order and work down!! LOL! so girl..your site has just been blooming all summer...fantastic! I love to see where you've been on the weekends and all of your playing at the lake! Well it's getting late so I'll call it a day..Mon & Tues were really busy for me at work! Hope you have a good rest of the week!

7/28/2009 9:31:35 PM - 002075508000
joey-

josh

7/28/2009 6:43:00 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, How are you today? I really like the new header of your brother & nephew.
 I have a quote for you today: Opportunities are like sunrises -
if you wait too long, you miss them.
William Arthur Ward

I also want ot share the good new:  Victoria got the job and she starts on Monday.  :-)   We are all so happy and I want to thank you for the continued prayers and good wishes you always offered.  It was greatly appreciated. 

I hope you are enjoying warm and sunny days in Fargo and please take care.  I always enjoy seeing that you have stopped by my sites.  Have a great day.

7/28/2009 5:59:07 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Glad you liked my comments :) I crack myself up sometimes :) Thank goodness!!
Love your bird catch, wonder what kind it is? I can't seem to catch any birds, except the buzzards looking for road kill.
Later today I'm hoping to get in the Gallery. Yesterday was little bit of a nightmare. Lost my phone and then someone found it but decide to keep it!! So I had to go get a new phone!! Makes me soooo mad! I ended up with an iPhone but I'm not sure how much I'm going to like it so far, we'll see.
I loved the 'riding the noodle' picture :) but you have a great new header up there, so summer like :) Looks great with the site color.
I'll check in a little later, Lisa

7/28/2009 1:48:05 AM - 001003494861
Hi Joey! It's been a while, I know. The camera's fine and I told Lisa that i'm trying to save what's left of my newly "guaranteed" 100,000 shutter cycles for my trip to OH this weekend (First time I will have ALL my children and ALL my grandchildren in the same spot at the same time! Then I have the boys for two more weeks down here in ATL. I haven't had a lot of time to do the pics from the last trip, but I think I'll post the finished ones up anyway and just add to them as I get them done. You may have already seen some, but feel free to peruse them at your leisure.

RE: tech stuff - I love the techie stuff, but in the end if you can get the shot with an Instamatic, that's all that counts...getting the shot.

7/27/2009 7:51:26 PM - 002077476036
hi joey im glad to see that you like my scuba pics!! david is small!

7/27/2009 5:49:11 PM - 002077860514
Hey there. Yes, I am so excited about college. I'm a junior. The closest one to me is probably St Edwards in Austin. I did personally write all those songs and I'm always making more! It's my favorite hobby.
Also, I love your pictures page. All that food made me hungry! :)

7/27/2009 2:09:21 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey! Did you have a good weekend? I got out and about a little this weekend. The guys took me on the boat and entertained me doing some tricks. They were wondering if I could still operate my camera! It's been a long time....hehehehe

I got the momma deer, but am hoping to snag a shot with her AND her two little babies! They are so cute and often romp around in the back yard.  We'll see...........they don't sit still long!

Hugs and have a great day!

7/27/2009 1:45:18 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Did you go to the lake?
 Thanks for stopping by my sites. Always glad to see your comments. Victoria should hear any day now if she got the job. Yes they were doing background checks, I guess it is more common than I had realized. This is the first time I ever heard of it.  They called 2 of her former employers. 
Yes my mom had cataract surgery on her eye and she is doing well now, thank God.  Before the winter she will have the eye done.  You don't fool around with your sight. 

The girls went to see The Little Mermaid on Broadway Saturday and really enjoyed themselves.  It will be closing next month to make room for another play.  Sunday went to visit my mom and have Sunday dinner with her.  Otherwise no big adventures for us this past weekend.

I'll let you know about Victoria as soon as we hear something.  have a great day Joey.  :-)

7/26/2009 5:38:47 PM - 001024320926
Joey, you crack me up!! I love all your comments :) I love the story about the wedding and the kiddos :) When Rider was born Randy and his mother lost Nick in the hospital. They found him riding the elevator up and down. They didn't tell me until I think Rider was like a month old. They Nick was running around just being a little brat and they both thought the other one had him. Scary but funny now :)
I was at a meeting in Ft. Worth yesterday. They had the coolest speaker, he was orginally from Lebanon. He had a great accent and I left there with an uncontrollable urge to roll my R's :) :) He was a good speaker too, very good. So at least part of the meeting didn't bore me out of my senses. After the meeting Beverly and I went to the Stockyards. It is amazing out there. I had forgotten how great that area is, so now I'm telling everyone they need to go there for a visit. Billy Bob's is always awesome. But it was way over a 100, no wind and the sun was beating down hard, I got sick after like an hour. I don't do heat well. So we had to leave but we have vowed that we will go back in October or November. I took pictures but nothing like I wanted to, it was soooo hot!! Can't breath heat.
Hope the weekend is being good to you. I will check in Monday.
PS: Starla is doing well. I've talked with her several times since Friday.

7/26/2009 1:18:32 PM - 002073432243

7/26/2009 3:26:04 AM - 001023411097
Hi Joey, I just wanted to stop by and say hi and I just love the sign. We hove noting down here in our little town. You are so sweet to drop by and say hello and I want you to know how much you mean to all of us on shutterfly. I want to take a few minutes and look around. hugs barbaraj

7/26/2009 12:55:09 AM - 000031826072
Oh..forgot to mention... I LOVE the noodle under the butt p9ic of the week....too funny! I'm snorting over here!

7/26/2009 12:53:52 AM - 000031826072
Hey Josie (I call Jordan that sometimes and the pet name just came out when I thought of you just now...) You did change your site to the summery yellow, too! It rocks!

I've been behind in site visits again. Thanks for all your comments about my latest book and Kristin's party/Girl's Day. Actually, I can't take credit for the party and the cake - my friend, Cathy, did all that - I just attended and took pictures and was supportive! Kristin had a fabulou time, tho, and Cathy is such a great hostess. And Kristin is just a good friend of mine and my sister's - she's not Brandon's sister.

Hey, I'm almost finished reworking one of my very first photobooks - the Venice book from my honeymoon. I realized that I've learned so much since then and could do a much better job, so I am reworking it and adding a few pics from our 1st anniversary. I posted it on FB today, but still haven't posted it on S/F yet - still tinkering with it.

So what have you been doing? Still walking and working out????? I worked out this morning myself. I've been getting lax lately so I was overdue. Of course, I'm not in training for a marathon like Ms. Joey, so I can chill out a bit. Hehehe

Hope you are having a great weekend. Talk to you later!

7/24/2009 11:07:43 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I can't believe it's the weekend all ready :) I have to attend a meeting tomorrow in Ft. Worth, snore. But maybe I'll get a good picture opportunity out of it!!
What do you have up your sleeve for the weekend??

7/24/2009 4:12:36 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I JUST WANTED TO QUICKLY SAY HELLO AND THAT I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND! I LOVE YOUR 4TH OF JULY BOOK AND HAVE LOOKED AT IT SO MANY TIMES IN THE GALLERY! YOUR BOOK AND LISA'S TEXAS STATE FAIR BOOK ARE BOTH SUCH AN INSPIRATION! I LOVE ALL THE DETAILS THAT YOU BOTH CAPTURED! I LEFT YOU A COMMENT ON THE PHOTOBOOK PAGE! ANYWAYS, I'M GOING TO A RENAISSANSSANCE FESTIVAL IN STERLING NY! I'M HOPING I CAN CAPTURE ALL THE DETAILS AND MAKE AN AWESOME BOOK! EVERY WEEKEND THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT THEME AND THIS WEEKEND IS THE PIRATE THEME! I'M SO EXCITED! :)

7/24/2009 2:30:15 PM - 001076975951
Joey, I just wanted to stop by and wish you a wonderful weekend. I hope you are feeling fine and keeping busy. Will you be getting out on the lake this weekend?

My vacation begins exactly 2 months from today and I am getting excited!!!! Made my final payment last week and now I just wait for my documents....and then it really feels official. 

Enjoy and take care...God bless you.  

7/24/2009 1:38:36 AM - 000093706714
JoJo......I was a (very) good GG today and actually feel 'caught up'. In all my running around, I think I read you were down with a bad headache...so I am just stopping in with a (soft) head massage....and good wishes to feel better.

Does surfing make you tired????? LOL

7/23/2009 6:48:06 PM - 002075508000
joey-

thank you. this is all very new to me, just the idea of someone iv never met being able to look at my pictures, and actually enjoy them, means more than i can explain. your sites awesome, way more entertaining than mine. and yes... clouds amaze me, but... so does everything else, haha.

josh

7/23/2009 6:27:59 PM - 001024320926
Hi there Joey :) How's it going? I wanted to stop by last night but I ran out of time :) Doing a little lunch break right now. Hope you're doing good!!

7/23/2009 4:27:10 AM - 002059624475
Joey, what a cheerful page layout!! I like the sign too. I'm going to have a hard time with Rhonda!

7/23/2009 1:32:28 AM - 001076975951
Joey thanks for visiting, how are you doing? Victoria is still waiting for an answer from her last interview. They are doing a background check. I have never heard of that. They are calling her last place of employment & her internship places. Have you ever heard of that where they check up on you? I mean it is not the C.I.A. or F.B.I. very interesting.

I like the yellow color you have on your site. Reminds me of sunshine. It is uplifting and joyful. Have a great evening and I think I have a look around.

7/22/2009 8:53:21 PM - 000093706714
Honey............another 3 weeks! And then maybe,.......maybe they will put me into a walking cast! Not the news I was hoping for today.
arrrrrrgggghhhhhhhh

7/22/2009 6:01:37 PM - 000033709100
Love the lake pics, Joey, and your restaurant looks great! I had no idea you were in the food business ; )

7/22/2009 5:46:51 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Just can by for some sunshine :) Hope all is well. Love all the changes and rearranging in your site :) Looks great!! I ordered 4 of my books and they came in today, love them!! I need to make a book of San Diego and Vancouver!!

7/22/2009 1:28:12 PM - 002020640084

Oh I love the pic of the week are you sure that is not you? Love your puppy pics and I need to look around and see what you have new. barbaraj

7/21/2009 7:56:34 PM - 001036346682
Does Tina know you posted her pic of the week! Revenge!!

7/21/2009 4:08:57 PM - 001039443966
P.S. oh and just to clarify, I think it was the baby book she was having trouble reading, moreso than the Duck book. But I don't think it matters, since I can't really do anything anyway. Thanks, though!

7/21/2009 4:05:41 PM - 001039443966
Thanks for the (double) comment on my photobook, and looking into the larger view issue. I agree; it would be great to get some sort of zoom tool for reading the text!

7/21/2009 2:34:32 PM - 001076975951
Joey my dear how are you doing? I love that new header of the boat & lake. Very nice. And that picture of the week is LOL funny. Just wanted to say Hello and wish you a wonderful day.

Where are her saddle bags, thick thighs, dimples, age spots, gray hairs, hammer toes......come on give us something here!!! It isn't fair to look so good even if you are riding a noodle :)

7/21/2009 1:55:53 AM - 002055694880
LOL!!!! I am laughing and in the floor and holding my stomach.. I came to your page and was going to leave a comment and Regan comes flying up behind me looking at the picture of you sis and the noodle and just hollers.....'That lady's riding a noodle!!" LOL!!!!! My stomach hurts and I forgot what I was gonna say.

7/20/2009 10:32:31 PM - 002029331419
Joey...as I was saying - Great pic of the week! But, I always thought that you put the noodle under your arms to keep from sinking...he he....! What a beautiful blue the water is!! Is the water pretty warm?

7/20/2009 10:30:23 PM - 002029331419
starla....

When I am off I catch up on all the shows I have recorded. I watch one soap and it is One Life to Live. LOVE IT!! I also watch Cold Case and Without a Trace. I watch Ice Road Truckers. And the Bachlorette. Two more weeks to go on that show.. Love it. Can't wait to see what the big twist is. What kind of shows do you watch?

OMG, i love the picture of the week, gave me a good laugh. I too love the color change of the site...i have to laugh at this as well as i just changed mine to the exact same thing before heading over here....you have such good taste...LOL!

7/20/2009 5:22:02 PM - 001024320926
Love the picture of the week too, except I think it's just wrong for an adult to look that good :)

7/20/2009 11:22:57 AM - 002055694880
I love the new color change....Great! And the pic of the week is fantastic...And it is funny! That's great!

7/20/2009 2:20:26 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
OMG! IT REALLY IS YOUR SISTER! HOW DOES A MOM HAVE A PERFECT TEENAGE BODY LIKE THAT?!! AMAZING! WHAT IS HER SECRET? ANYWAYS, THANKS FOR SHARING ABY'S DRINK AND THE HOT PINK GERBERA DAISY! MADE MY DAY! :)

7/20/2009 1:11:36 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
IS IT YOUR SISTER TINA, JACK'S MOM?

7/20/2009 1:09:39 AM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I THOUGHT THAT PIC OF THE WEEK WAS OF A TEENAGER! I COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT BECAUSE I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE NIECES THAT ARE TEENS YET! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT IS YOUR SISTER! WOW!

7/19/2009 10:58:40 PM - 002020640084
I LOVE THE PIC OF THE WEEK! GORGEOUS ACTION PHOTO! ITS SO COLORFUL! HOW FUN! WHAT A RIOT!

7/19/2009 10:57:12 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I LOVE THE HEADER! HOW PERFECT! IS THIS SOMEONE YOU KNOW OR DID YOU TAKE IT OF THE OTHER BOATERS?

7/19/2009 10:43:03 PM - 001024320926
Fun new header Joey :) Love it. I think you said you were dealing with a cold, are you feeling better? Hope so.
Thanks for helping with the comments for Connie. The ugliness is maddening at times. I am confident that we will overcome such things because we are a strong shutter family :)
I just looked at Henry's pictures and they're wonderful :) What a find and he photographed them so well. Thanks for telling me :)
Hope you're weekend is going well :)

7/19/2009 10:13:05 PM - 000084822188
Joey, thanks for the comments suggestion. Right now, I'm thinking of a site rearrangement which might put the hummingbird page first.

7/19/2009 9:00:05 PM - 002078637869
Thanks for the comments! i really love your pictures you got a great talent!!!! keep it up

7/19/2009 5:35:28 PM - 002055694880
Hey there Joey!! Thank you thinking of me. We are having a big weekend with my cousins from Louisiana. Will have new pictures. I will email you with what T means. Term of endearment...kinda!

7/19/2009 4:36:27 PM - 000084822188
Joey, please do add links to my site. This is one of the coolest experiences as a picture taker. I'm hoping to get even better pictures of the hummingbird chick as they get a little older.

7/19/2009 3:12:36 PM - 001059933021
Joey, I have not forgotten you and your questions. Well, the Shutterfly Friends Shared Site, minus all the pictures, have been there since the beginning. I think it was updated about 3-5 days ago...but I could be wrong. I also like to thank you for visiting my site and for all your nice comments. It is very well appreciated! Have a nice day!

7/19/2009 5:29:36 AM - 000084822188
Joey,
Thanks for the tip about My portfolio by TristanP8. I thought the photos were fantastic. There's an Anna Hummingbird nest about a block from were I live. I've just added a page for this. Here's the link http://hbarbe.shutterfly.com/currentphotoopportunitie.

7/18/2009 11:00:06 PM - 001024320926
LOL!! I told him if we get home and that letter is in your truck I'm going to kill you! Well it was in his truck in a stack of mail, I didn't kill him, just gave him the eye :) Thanks again I love it!!

7/18/2009 8:59:23 PM - 001024320926
Joey, guess what I found in my husbands truck?? A pretty pink envelope from you!! I love the picture and your note, so sweet. Thank you so much for being so nice to me :) I am sooo grateful to have tumbled into Shutterfly and met so many wonderful people. I consider you my friend :) I take you and eveyone else with me wherever I go.
Monday I will scan your beautiful flower and add it to my home page :) I know it will look wonderful there :)

7/18/2009 8:00:13 PM - 002020640084
JOEY,
I JUST DISCOVERED YOUR UNCLE DAN'S PAGE AND THE THOUGHTS PAGE! AMAZING! I COMMENTED ON THOSE PAGES! HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND! :)

7/18/2009 4:57:45 AM - 001024320926
Joey!! I got Kyleigh tonight :) They called and asked me to take her for the weekend!!!! I am soo blessed :) We played, read, drank Pappy's tea and now she's out :) Just had to tell ya!!

7/17/2009 1:00:44 PM - 002055694880
I love the featured ablum setting. I think it is so neat.
HI Joey how's it going? Wade is doin nothing but sleeping.....when his wife Becky had her gallbladder taken out he got mad at her because all she wanted to do was sleep....now that's all he's doin. Won't let his wife leave his side......It's funny!

7/17/2009 12:57:10 PM - 001024320926
Joey, Wade is my brother. He had his gall bladder removed yesterday. Ouch, right? He did real well but has some post op pain and thought he wouldn't need the pain meds. Lesson learned, he's taking his meds now :)
Starla is taking her managers test on Monday for work :) She's a smarty she'll do fine.
You're so sweet, thanks for asking :)

7/17/2009 12:19:25 PM - 000082378991

7/16/2009 11:14:25 PM - 001024320926

7/16/2009 4:41:22 AM - 002066991916
Hi Joey! Do you remember the site that I told you before? It is back yes my 'Shutter Sharing is back' Now I move all the photos and comments that you shared before on my new 'Shutter Share' site. (Weird ha)
By the way here is the step to update your shutter friends sites. On your 'SHUTTERFLY FRIEND' site you must click the sign +ADD OTHER SECTION TO YOUR SITE SUCH AS A CALENDAR, MESSAGE BOARD AND MORE' After you click it add 'bookmark' then follow click 'ADD SECTION' Then when yoou have it you can updated all your friend share sites to your site pressing 'ADD BOOKMARK' Then on the top of your bookmark at the left side you may see 'SHARE SITE' Then you are ready to update all share site that you want to updated. I am hoping that these steps are helpful. Please let me know if you make it. I am willing to help you.

7/16/2009 4:16:20 AM - 002032428374
How funny! That was not Aubrey. That was me, Michelle. I see my other daughters got their logins mixed up, too, because everyone was using MY computer this evening - Ha! Well, thanks one more time for the Birthday wishes! :o)

7/16/2009 4:13:34 AM - 002077684431
Hi Joey - Thanks for the Birthday wishes! We went out of town last night and just got back a couple of hours ago - I'm beat! The kids are in bed now, and I'm heading that way, too. Thanks again!

7/16/2009 2:11:55 AM - 002077476036
Oops my bad. That was me who commented you below. I accidentally was using marissa's membership instead of mine. :)

7/16/2009 2:06:57 AM - 002077860514
I love your flower pictures, they're fabulous!

7/16/2009 1:41:20 AM - 001061427203
wow, i just read Julie's comment and my next stop is to read your article in the blog section. Love the new addition of the Joeys sign Lisa found....perfect.

7/16/2009 1:39:37 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Love the new headers of the kids and the pic of the sign that Lisa found - how cool is that? Girl, I read your blog, way back, like Starla did and WOW!!!! Did I say WOW? Wow doesn't even begin to cover it. You had tears streaming down my face. I already knew you were a warm, talented, loving and amazing person, but I really only knew the half of it. I am so inspired, amazed and proud that you are going to train for and attempt a marathon despite what challenges you have in doing so. Your can-do attitude, bravery and determination are absoloutely incredible. Did I say WOW???!?? And just when I thought I already knew all about you! What a true inspiration you are, Joey, in EVERY way. I am so glad that I have the pleasure of getting to know you thru Shutterfly...just more to like about you the more I learn! Now get those sneakers on and go walk!!!! Go, Joey, go!

7/15/2009 8:16:09 PM - 002055694880

Hi Joey, Testing!! :) :) I had to come read what happened to Michael and it was a horror story!! I would curl up and die. Seriously I'd have to go buy a new camera before I suffered from DT's He's so much braver than me :)
How's it going to Joey? Big plans for the weekend or more training? You go girlie :) I'm proud for you :)
The Gallery has me itching to make a book, gotta get in there and do that maybe tomorrow. Today is pretty much shot now.

Hi Joey!
Yes my Nikon is in an ICU (Incapacitated Camera Unit) up in Atlanta. I should be sitting next to it, but the think it will survive the night, so I came home do some things. It was so sad seeing it lying there with all it's parts hanging out. <sniff, sniff>

Seriously, I finally burned out the shutter, but the repair is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.  I'm hoping to get it back in time to go up north in a couple of weeks.  I have a friend with a D40 I could probably borrow if it's not ready.

Thanks you so much for stopping by, and for the condolences.  I'm OK, it was just all so sudden!

Talk to you soon,
Michael

7/15/2009 3:15:58 PM - 002066991916

Wanted to ask you what in the hell is NORMAL??? I'd like to have some of that over here at my place! Sometimes the adventures are the normal....I know they are around my house!

7/15/2009 4:00:34 AM - 001024320926

I'll have Jamie email you about the NM trip!! It would be a blast!!

7/12/2009 2:36:15 AM - 001023411097
Joey, hi to you and I love the sign! Also check my email for your answer on making the filmstrip larger by using the option Featured Album!  I tried it on your Memories page and it works good!

7/12/2009 12:11:41 AM - 001024320926
Joey you have to go to Barb'a and look at her Vancouver and Alaska pictures!!

7/11/2009 8:56:38 PM - 002077684431

Joey, Just stopping by to say Hello and see how you are doing? Any plans to go to the lake this weekend? It is cool here in NYC we are 13 degrees below normanl for this time of year. Yesterday we reached 73 degrees. No way is this July temps. I do have plans to go to the Central Park Zoo on Saturday. Hope it works out.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I hope to share my zoo photos next week with my S/F friends. Take care.

7/10/2009 12:34:51 AM - 001099993350
Awesome 4th July firework pics Joey, I guess I need to think about taking some similar photographs; I have never tried. I am still in and out of town but wanted to stop by and say hi.
Barry

7/9/2009 4:30:19 PM - 002055694880
Hey there Joey! How are ya girl? I love the pics with the fire works. Really neat shots. I hear that you were sad watching the memorial. It was a really neat memorial. I was surprised the people at the Staples place behaved as well as they did and I was glad. I agree with Cheri. I think the kids should stay with his family and not be given to her because they know nothing about her and she knows nothing about them.
Anyway. I love the photo of abby jumpin off the boat. That is a great shot!
Be Safe. See ya around.

7/9/2009 8:18:15 AM - 001003494861
Hi Joey,
I'm glad you liked the fireworks. I've got some other examples scattered around the site too if you're interested. BTW, following up on things we have discussed earlier, you have kind of inspired me to spend more time looking at the clouds. I haven't posted much, but I'm really starting to appreciate the photographic value of the clouds I tend to take so much for granted. Thanks!

-Michael

7/8/2009 11:30:24 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey: How are you these days? I spent yesterday glued to the TV and could not stop crying! The memorial service was beautiful but I did not expect it to affect me that way. I don't think it is just about the loss of an incredible entertainer...but ya know, all the other stuff we have chatted about b4. .....Anyway, I soooooooo hope that his record sales continue to skyrocket, that all is debt is absolved and that his children are left alone. Here's to hoping that some good with come out of the loss.

I am seeing popcorn pics ......and that usually includes something fun so I am off to take a peak.

Hope you are enjoying the summer and that the weather is WONDERFUL for ya!
Hugs
Cheri

You are a master at this Joey :) that's what makes you so wonderful :)

7/8/2009 5:03:27 PM - 001076975951

Hi Joey, How are things going today? Hope the weather is nice in Fargo this time of year. We finally have a beautiful day. Sunshine and a cool breeze. It is about 79 degrees. It is perfect. Now if it could only stay this way all summer long.

So what have you been up to these past few days?

Love the fireworks pictures. I have a few new pictures on my gallery site on the Recent Photos page. Drop by and have a look around.

 

Joey the book you posted on my S/F sharing is beautiful don't remove it.  Just simply add the flower book too.  Why not share 2 books?  That is fine by me.  :-)  Thanks.   See you soon.

7/8/2009 4:35:00 AM - 002015846852
Really COOL blog Joey!!!

7/8/2009 3:38:02 AM - 001024320926
How's it going Joey :) I got into the Gallery today and did some serious commenting and it felt good too. I see that you posted your blog. Tomorrow I'll give it a read, can't wait :) I'm sure I'll find some great inspiration there :)
Thanks for stopping by the other night, I wasn't having such a great night. It'll get better, prayers always help :)
Better run for now but I'll be back tomorrow :)

7/8/2009 1:53:15 AM - 002059624475
Joey, I sent you a pic in your photo album. If you want one on your map site. I've tried to put it on but, I'm not having any luck :(

7/7/2009 9:43:16 PM - 002029331419
And those are some crazy fire works going in every direction! LOL!

7/7/2009 9:40:04 PM - 002029331419

Your getting VERY Creative with your shots and I want you to know that I'm really enjoying what your getting! And there's a Joey's in Canada!? Cool! Going to see what else is new!

Forgot to say - love those new header fireworks shots...very cool!

7/7/2009 4:22:54 AM - 000031826072
Hola Joelita!!!! That jumping picture of Abby is too awesome! Love it! We DO have the same umbrellas on our beach - but I must confess the one in my photos is my neighbor's, not mine! I just had to take pics of their place from the boat since I love all the flags and the colorful umbrella (like yours!) I'm thrilled to hear that you had a happy and safe holiday. But sorry to hear about the peky mosquito's. Like you, I think I was more fascinated by the beautiful moon this year even more so then the fireworks. Hey, I think I forgot to comment on the FABULOUS birthday flowers....way cool. Mexican food for your Bday lunch...........yummy...my very favorite! What great taste you have young lady! Have a magnificent week, luv!

7/7/2009 12:33:54 AM - 001024320926
1, 2, 3...........Jump!! Love that photo!! It's great!! Love the headers too!! Looks like the 4th was good to ya'll :) Very cool!! I don't think I took 2 pictures the whole weekend, not like me :( All my internet woos having feeling a little frustrated. I wanted to get into the gallery today but that didn't happen. But like the song says....The sun will come out tomorrow, tomorrow there'll be sun :)

7/6/2009 4:02:27 PM - 002010581426

Hope you had a blessed 4th.....

Hi Joey, Thanks for stopping by and checking out the Canada pictures :) It was a really cool place to visit. Meeting Barb was so awesome :) She was a real sweetheart and I it was just so fun :) Can't say that enough!!
Looks like I have selected (coerced) to host the next party :) Hope I can do as good a job as Jean :) She was an awesome host!! I've already got a theme kinda going, maybe, we'll see :)
I was soooo tired yesterday and I'm so far behind, haven't been in the gallery in forever. I can't stand that, maybe at lunch today.

7/1/2009 5:45:35 PM - 001024320926

Love it! I knew you had to have this picture!! My shutterpals are always in my thoughts! I'm sorry I missed you last night at the Party. It was a blast! I hope we can do it again :)

PS: Great headers!!!!

Happpy Birthday Joey! I don't have any present for you but here in my heart I will send you one. I wish more birthday to come to you. Wish you a happy year! Way to go Joey You are best on shutterfly. It is hard to measured your sacrifice being a long member of Shutterfly. You are better than most guru! Once again Happy happy Birthday I wish all the best for you  

6/30/2009 2:17:25 PM - 002066991916
Good morning Joey! Thank you for adding your photo with your niece on my site. You look both beautiful! My niece is 3yrs old.

6/30/2009 1:56:49 PM - 001076975951
Joey, A little birdie told my about your birthday. And I hope you had a wonderful day. I will be taking a look at the lunch pictures of your BD. What else did you do to celebrate?

Thanks for your continued good wishes and prayers regarding Victoria. Yesterday afternoon Victoria was called and told that the position from her former employer went to another guy who was also laid-off at the same time as Victoria. The guy had a few more years experience. So the search continues. Thanks for keeping her in your prayers. I hope she gets more interviews in the coming weeks. It stinks that she has sent out over 5o resumes and only 3 interviews URGH!!!! That really stinks. Joey, are you currently working? What company do you work for?

Anyway, I will catch you later and thanks for being a great S/F friend. :-)

6/30/2009 2:14:24 AM - 002025703401
Hey Joey!
I won't sing to you because, trust me on this, I can't carry a tune... You do not want to hear me singing. I save it for when I am alone in the car. :) :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEY!!!

6/29/2009 1:43:32 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Happy Birthday to your MOM :-) Great header photos. Love them. Thanks for stopping and taking a look at my BIL birthday pictures. Yes we had a nice time. Food was good and I love when all 5 brothers get together. Do you really see a resemblance? I don't I think they all look different.

How is the weather in Fargo? We finally had a nice warm and sunny weekend. Hope it continues. Take care Joey and I'll visit again before the week is over.

6/29/2009 12:23:26 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey.......I hope I didn't miss the date but I thought I read somewhere that is was your birthday! If yes, - big, big hugs from me. You know....the squishy kind where it is REALLY hard to breathe!

Hope you enjoyed another great weekend at the lake. I actually got to go on my first boat ride yesterday. It was wonderful and without incident. Hoping that will encourage my 'nazi guardian' to let me get out a bit more! hehehehehe

Love your pic of the week. I need to find a way to carry my camera with me while hobbling around on my crutches!

Will 'talk' again soon.
Cheri

6/26/2009 9:20:57 PM - 001076975951

6/26/2009 7:32:13 PM - 001066325224
Hi Joey, I wanted to stop by and see what was new with you lately. The end of the school year was so busy I didn't have time for anything else. I'm really looking forward to doing whatever I want to do for the summer and finally getting a break after a tough year! Things look great as you have made many changes to your site. Take care and keep in touch!

6/26/2009 7:26:35 PM - 002055694880
Love your pic for the week. Where've you been....haven't seen you around lately. Just checking in. Hope all is well.

Hey girlie.........I noticed your new profile pic. Love it! Hope you are well and staying outta trouble! As for me......I have seen way too many movies and eaten more than I should. Have to find another diversion! I think it is time for me to get started on some albums.

I am also hoping to be getting outdoors soon. I took a sample trip out with my oldest son on Tuesday and did pretty well. So watch out world.........crip is getting out! hehehehehe

Take care and 'talk' soon.
Hugs
Cheri

6/25/2009 1:44:06 PM - 002055694880
Hey Joey! I saw your comment on Lisa's page about the see shell.. I tell ya I didn't know what it was when Randy come to shore with it and then he said that it was in his shorts.....Makes a girl wonder ya know.
Sorry I have been busy lately. Not much time for site seeing. Hopefully I will get to today. I'm going to see Granny and then look at a window job. Will be back this evening.

6/25/2009 12:36:06 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Sorry I meant to get by sooner today but I've been crazy busy trying to get ready for the trip, so much work to do here in my office. Now I'm stopping in on the sites before I leave work. Still gotta pack!! Hope you have an awesome weekend!!! Until Monday, Lisa

6/24/2009 10:49:34 PM - 002025703401

Will be back to check around more later!
Vicki

6/23/2009 2:41:55 AM - 002029331419
Hey Joey! Your soo funny ... re-read my message below...I knew you were in the picture - so 'who took the picture' was jk-ing you! The family pics we took this weekend - Rob, my daughter's bf - took them for us! :0) I have to remind myself to get in front of the camera sometime - or there's no proof I was there! Ha! That is a great pic of all of you! :0)

6/22/2009 11:48:47 PM - 001024320926

Love your site too :)

6/22/2009 6:59:45 PM - 002055694880
Hey Joey! Love the photo with you and your dad and girls! The blonde looks familiar.
We had a blast! So much fun in the sun! My fat that hangs over the top of your swim suit is burnt but it is well worth it! Uploading photos now. Took a bunch. Gonna go swimming maybe by the time I get back they will be done. See ya later.

6/22/2009 5:52:02 PM - 002029331419
Great picture of the Dad & Girls!!!! And if Joey is in the picture - it makes us wonder...who took the picture?! ;0)

6/22/2009 1:39:47 PM - 001076975951
Joey, LOVE the new header and the photo with your dad is FABULOUS!!!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Yes days like father's day makes me miss my dad even more knowing that we is not here with us. I am always thinking of him, but I cherish the times and all the days we did have.

Yes I try to comment on the photos but sometimes you do forget to click and see what the S/F friends have to say. I hope you have a great day. I'll be by again during the week. take care.

6/22/2009 12:41:39 PM - 000093706714
awwwwwwwwwwwww............I LOVE, LOVE the shot of your Dad with all his girls! How did you enjoy your visit with the family this weekend?

The weather was GORGEOUS here so I sent Rene out to ride on his motorcycle. Then he and Jonathan took a boat ride together. After Jason got home from work, the boys grilled steak and we all had dinner together and then a movie. Very nice!

Getting around a little better but the foot is still not cooperating unless I keep it constantly elevated and iced! Makes moving around difficult! hehehehe Being a good patient..........FOR NOW!

I will visit again soon. Hope you are doing well.

6/22/2009 11:52:45 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey!! I thought I'd stop by before heading to work in surgery. Had a blast in Galveston with Starla and the family :)

6/19/2009 1:53:17 AM - 002055694880
Hi Joey. I read on someone else's page that it was raining there and hail at the lake spot? You still going? Is it supposed to rain tomorroww? Did you lose power?? Was it that bad? I think I decided I want to play twenty questions.

6/18/2009 11:29:10 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, hope all is well :) Are you gonna be at the lake this weekend? More pictures for the quickly filling up camping page :)

6/17/2009 1:12:18 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - I love your new Shutterfly Pals sharing page. You guys are all doing something like this and I love them all. I have to borrow the idea soon and add on! Thanks for the comments on my Miracle League pics - such a great experience for us all! I hope it's finally warming up enough for you to get out on the lake! Have a great week.

6/17/2009 12:07:07 AM - 002055694880
Hey Joey. Stoppin in real quick. The girls are in the tub and I am next so then I am headed to bed. Ain't that a shame. It is 7:05 and I am ready to crash! Jason is not even home yet. Darn...that whole King size featherbed to myself for a little while. I need to go do the dishes first then shower then bed. If the girls allow. I will be asleep in five minutes. Sorry so quick, It the thought that counts right?
See you ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

6/16/2009 3:53:27 PM - 001076975951
I look forward to your newest photos Joey. Thanks you for always leaving such sweet and thoughtful comments. Let's keep on sharing.

6/16/2009 2:16:25 PM - 000093706714
Hey sweetie.....
The birdie poop cracked me up...and made me soooo glad that it was YOU and not ME! (devilish smile) Well c'mon, I do believe I have had more than my 'fair share' of CHIT already!! giggle Pun intended!!!!!!!!

Have a good day Joey!
Hugs
Cheri

6/16/2009 2:09:36 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks for visiting and I am glad you like my roses exhibit photos. Despite the rain it was beautiful and so many different flowers. Yes my girls do love flowers too and they don't mind taking a trip to the NYBG. I think your flower photos are beautiful also and I love the header. What pictures are you currently uploading? Are they from the lake?

Victoria has an interview on Wednesday with the mayor Office of TV, Film & Broadcasting. She use to intern there during a semester in college. She loved it there so hopefully the interview goes well. I shall keep you informed. have a great day my friend.

6/16/2009 2:02:08 AM - 002063504014
Joey,
I am thrilled that you are appreciating my pictures and projects so much. Going to these places have added peace and tranquility in my life in a special way, like you said. Especially in todays busy and fast paced society, and that is part of what I was hoping to accomplish by sharing these pictures.
I want to thank you for being the first Shutterfly "Guru" to find and expose my works to the rest of the Guru's in the shutterfly world. It has been uplifting to me to recieve the various comments and feedback, I had no idea at first of the vastness of the Shuttrfly family. How did the Shutterfly "Guru's" come about? About how many gurus are there, or is that just a nic-name so to speak?
Keep up the guruing.
Paul

6/15/2009 5:18:10 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Hope all is well :) Been thinking about ya, wondering if you went to the lake this weekend :) If you did I hope it was an awesome time :)
I'm headed to Galveston this weekend, can't wait to feel that breeze off the ocean again. Starla is going to be there too, should be fun with all the girls running around.
Thanks for the fridge picture, it's so great you should see there are two or three more on there now. It's making my day to see those refridgerators on there :) Joanne by far has the most magnets of anyone!!
Hope all is well, Lisa

6/15/2009 1:35:51 AM - 002055694880

Hi Joey, How are thing going for you today? I was gone most of the day. My mom had an eye doctor appt. and since she doesn't drive I had to take her. She needs cataract surgery next month. Such is life...

My signs photos can be added on the Fun & Games page of the gallery site. If you don't have any photos to share this month not to worry you can add photos for the next game.

I'll catch you tomorrow my friend in the meantime have a great day.

6/10/2009 2:31:18 PM - 002029331419
Hey Joey!
How's your week moving along? No surprises from your Dad? :0) When are you going to the lake again? We were thinking of going this weekend...but cold and rainy..so we'll head up next weekend...all of this should clear out and we should be up in the 90's like we are supposed to be in JUNE!! not 70's like today!
Just stopping by to say Hi!

6/10/2009 1:20:04 PM - 002055694880
I wish I could see LIsa trying to drive that thing to work!! Randy could add wheels and a motor if you really wanted! Morning Joey! Headed to go do windows but I shall return!

6/10/2009 7:49:08 AM - 002070316626
Hi Joey, and thanks for warming coments on my site,Your site is so beautiful too, and I love your beautiful picture,espesially the flowers. I think I pick one for my wife :-), Welcome back to my site also and I hope you will look at my videos

6/10/2009 4:29:13 AM - 001024320926
Joey I'm tired again tonight but Starla told me my book was featured and it perked me up :) Too fun :)
Jeff Gordon is still racing, very active in NASCAR :) Shannon is a big fan of his :) He's married and has a pretty little girl too. Her name is Ella :) You don't have to be a fan Joey but I love ya for trying :) You're my gal :)
Went and got a new refridgator tonight :) maybe I'll take a picture of it to post LOL!! It's stainless steel and looks good in the kitchen. It was an act of congress getting it in the house though :) It would have been a priceless video :) Gosh just a little above basic fridge and it cost a 1000 dollars!!!!!! I think that's alot of money for something that doesn't have wheels and you can't drive to work.
Girlie I better get going, Lisa
PS: I'll e ya tomorrow :)

6/10/2009 4:02:07 AM - 002020781938

6/10/2009 1:14:20 AM - 000093706714
Honey.....the meds worked SO GOOD today. The weather was gorgeous and my spirits were truly lifted! I have accepted my 'bad break' (hehehehehe) and accepted that the trip to San Diego is going to have to be postponed. It wouldn't be as fun (nor a good use of our funds) to go in this condition. Sooo......I will be looking for some inspiration from all my SF pals on activities to do while hopping around in Michigan!!!

I will probably not be around too much until after the surgery. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers...feeling a little nervous. Never broke a bone before. eeks!

Hugs
Cheri

Have a great day. I love that new header, it is so pretty.

Hello Joey, Tormod here, I saw your name at carmsdragons site and stop by, What a wounderful site and great pictures... Keep up the good works

6/9/2009 2:37:11 AM - 001024320926
Joey, Cheri broke her leg in two places over the weekend, having surgery Thursday!!!!!! Can not believe that!! Thought you'd want to know.

6/9/2009 2:19:26 AM - 001024320926
Joey, thanks for stopping by, look Julie has been out and about, love it!!! I'm headed to your other pages :) Hope you're having a good night :)

6/9/2009 2:04:38 AM - 000031826072
Wow, Joey. I opened up your home page and had my beath taken completely away by those gorgeous pink Gerber daisies! I LOVE them and your photos of them are stunning! So striking!

I'm sorry to hear that your weather hasn't warmed up enough yet to hit the Lakes yet - we've had 2-3 great boating weekends now and so have been out on the lake enjoying it to the hilt!

I have been trying to catch back up and discovered that you had several new photobooks I hadn't seen yet, so i checked them out. FABULOUS!!!!! Looks like you have been trying new things and the results are fantastic! The book of your sister is outstanding!

You had me laughing on FB tonight about the bird poop - we are having the exact same problem so I'm anxiously awaiting any advice that you get!

Happy Week!

6/9/2009 1:05:35 AM - 002055694880
Hey Joey!! I am back and had a blast. I took over 250 photos and I am trying to upload them now while the kids are in the garden with their daddy! :) hehe. I says it is going to take three days...... I am going to have to call my provider and have them come check me out because this is supposed to be high speed.....I have yet to check out your moon photos but I did take a couple while camping...I think I got one good one but I am going to upload them all. Gonna look around and I love the new beautiful pink flowers..
Joanne...$36 bucks!?!?!?! That is outrageous! WOW!

6/9/2009 12:09:14 AM - 001076975951
Joey, Yes I paid $36.00 for an afternoon showing at our local theater. That is with no popcorn, no candy, no extras. I may just wait for the films that interest me to be released on DVD. This can not be a weekly or bi-monthly event. How much is it to see a film in Fargo? Sorry to rave and rant.

Netflix has become very popular and it is a good idea to join if you watch alot of movies. Why have you suspended your membership?

How was your weekend? Is the weather getting any warmer in Fargo now that it is June? Fargo probably has such a short summer. I hate how quickly the summer goes by so fast. I'll catch you tomorrow have a great night.

6/8/2009 10:39:21 PM - 002071387328
Just wanted to drop by and say hello! I hope you are well and enjoying life. I love the welcome to your site that you have written. The words speak volumes :-)

6/8/2009 8:55:04 PM - 001076975951

6/5/2009 5:27:44 PM - 001061427203
ugh! i tell yeah Joey those people on the other end of the phone can really wear one out! Each provider (email & shutterfly) are blaming the other. At this rate it is never going to get resolved. At least one of the 2 people i spoke with at shutterfly was extremely nice and somewhat helpful.

Hey while i am here, i wanted to meantion i really like your shutterfly friends page, so much fun and i keep going back to look at all the new pics. have a great weekend

6/4/2009 10:56:36 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey
Thank you so much for stopping by, I have had and continue to have several out of town trips so I have had very little time to seriously visit all my favorite sites, so my apologies for this "quick" visit. It should ease up come July, so I can spend more time at yours and other sites. Hope you are having a great week.
Barry

6/4/2009 5:32:05 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Always happy to see that you have come to visit. Love your share page. And speaking of sharing thanks a million for adding your pictures to my sites. Fabulous and i love it.

6/4/2009 2:54:06 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Yes Victoria went to a job fair this morning and there is one more tomorrow. I went with her today to give her support, encourgament and just for company. She is a bit sad that no one has called for interviews. Although she waiting for a second call back with one company...if they decide to go to the next phase. Anyway I try to give her words of wisdom and hugs and the glass half full message. I treated her to lunch and mini shopping spree so hope that worked a bit. I still pray and ask the Good Lord to hear me. I'll keep you posted and thanks for thinking of Victoria. It is appreciated. Have a great evening my friend.

JOEY!!

6/3/2009 3:41:49 PM - 002071387328
Joey - Thanks for visiting my site in progress :-) It was strange seeing your link pop up as soon as I added the share section of my site!

6/3/2009 1:45:22 AM - 001038983680
Joey - Thanks for the blog comments today! Do start a pickle jar for sweet Madeline and her older siblings... our jar is about three times the size of an average pickle jar and filling up fast.

6/3/2009 1:44:08 AM - 002055694880
Joey, thanks for trying the scavenger hunt game. I think a lot of people had looked at it but no one guessed but you....not Gina's....keep looking. I just thought that that clue was easy!

6/3/2009 12:15:31 AM - 001076975951
Joey, Thanks for your comments and I love your sharing page as well as all the fellow guru's pages. It is so much fun to share our photos. I thank you for all the photos that you have added to my site. It is so much fun..I love it.

6/3/2009 12:11:43 AM - 001024320926
Joey, thanks for all the comments on my site. Glad you like the pictures :) I have fun taking them this weekend. We had a blast in Galveston, and I was so happy that things are looking so good there :) They are rebuilding and it just looks so good :) Can't wait to go back. The guys caught shark, trout and some other fish. They came back with a cooler stuffed full. Too fun. I didn't catch anything on my pink pole that night, I won't go out in the little boat on the big ocean :) so I have to stick to the shore for fishing :)
Thanks loads for stopping by, Lisa

6/2/2009 9:15:52 PM - 002071387328
Hi Joey thanks for your visit to my site and your lovely comments. It is really strange, as I was looking at your site just moments before you posted your message!

I am not a PRO but am willing to give any advice should it benefit you. You have some great links on your site :-)

Dave

6/2/2009 8:08:51 PM - 002029331419
Hey Joey...Wow!!! Look at that burst of color on your new header!! 8o) Looks GREAT!! I need to look around a bit...haven't been by in a little bit...so slide a slice of that Cherry Cheesecake over here so I'll quit drooling and I'll go check your pages out!

6/2/2009 5:09:23 PM - 001036346682
Hey Joey, How are you? Do anything fun this weekend?

6/2/2009 12:03:02 PM - 002055694880

Great new headers Joey!! Hope you're weekend was good to you :) We got back late last night and I tried to get online this morning but the net was acting up so I had to wait til this afternoon. I downloaded over 300 pictures today, cropped some, played with some but I'll upload to Shutterflay tomorrow. Hopefully one or two of them will look good :)
Hope your weekend was good and thanks for checking on me :)
Lisa

6/1/2009 2:05:41 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Love the new header...it is so pretty. It is so spring/summer and full of color. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Take any photos this past weekend? I just went to church and then visit my mom for Sunday dinner. How are things with you? I think I will head over to the Shutterfly friends page and have a look around. that page is wonderful.

6/1/2009 1:36:32 PM - 002055694880

5/31/2009 5:25:56 AM - 001066325224
Joey, Your site looks awesome. I love all of the changes and updates. You have really been busy. Life kind of fell apart for awhile, I didn't know turning 40 would be so tough! Now the end of the school year is creeping up and am looking forward to Summer Vacation. Hopefully after our OBX trip, I'll have more time to catch up. I hope things are going well. You can add a link to the Terrapin Times if you would like. ~ Diana

5/31/2009 1:56:04 AM - 001023411097
Hi Joey, I enjoy visiting your site and I feel like I am so lucky to be a part of the shutterfly family and friends. We have met so many nice people that give so much of themselves to this community. You are an asset to shutterfly and her friends! You see I call shutterfly a her! bj

5/30/2009 9:12:51 PM - 001076975951

5/30/2009 5:48:06 PM - 002066677360
Hi Joey- Ya this is the same Adam that signed your guestbook. I hope you don't mind too much. That is fun. I thought about adding one to my share site and I may still, I don't know. But I got to tell you that your pic Madeline at the Museum is simply a work of genius. You should have it printed and framed with the same style frame as in the picture. Really it is very, very good work. By the way I have added a share site at junglemonkeez.shutterfly.com with many more pics. But again beautiful work keep it up.

5/30/2009 4:57:47 PM - 002025703401
Hi Joey! Just stopped by to say hi and I hope you are having a great weekend!!! :)

Hi Joey- Thanks for checking out my books and leaving such nice comments - it's really inspiring. I love that you are inspired by other peoples work - me too! I saw your portrait one (about you) that was inspired by Anna's - I was home yesterday with my camera and it inspired me too - look for a new book soon. Thanks! Enjoy the weekend

5/29/2009 9:28:54 PM - 002058326073
Hi Joey, glad you stopped by and visited my site. Thank you for the kind words. I think I have found my new passion and looking at these other Shutterfly sites makes me want to learn as much as I can and inspires me to do more with my camera than just action shots, but my how I love BASEBALL. And I am always so excited when a truly capture some action. Check back some time soon. Our summer season starts tonight so I will be adding more pictures.

Enjoy the weekend!

Love, love, love the Memorial Day pics! God Bless America is very cool. Thanks for all the warm and wonderful anniversary wishes that you left everywhere, Joey! Much appreciated, as well as the review stroll thru our Wedding album and the comment. You are so sweet! I have been neglectful again about getting around to sites and on Gallery lately. I am STILL trying to find time to do Jordan's prom book and now an anniversary book! Do you have any new books? I haven't been in Gallery much lately so let me know if there are some I need to search out! So glad summer is coming....whoppee!

5/27/2009 1:45:32 PM - 002055694880
Joey, the I discovered book only took me 45 minutes. I got the idea and ran with it. There was no stopping me! :) I am working on K'Lee's now and hopefully can get it posted soon. I also have another idea for one but not sure how its going to pan out yet. I doesn't take long once I get started on the books because I think about it, I see it in my head and I do it!

5/27/2009 1:58:22 AM - 001038348079
Look at you with thise awsome Memorial Picture...Very touching! You and Lisa rock! I've missed you guys so much. I will come back this week and check out all your new photos! Tomorrow night is the K-5th grade viewing of the DVD. I hope they like it...Wow...was that 7 wks of my life...and my kids life...I feel so bad for my babies...but they have mommy back now. I added 357 pictures, 13 songs, text and transitioned ALL of them. I worked with a old program I had called Photostory 2005. I prob should of used Adobe Premiere. I had trouble getting it to burn but it was user error...finally got that to work after 3 days. Anyway, all done...and maybe I can buy a new lens with my money to shoot my Woodpecker!!! Ok, i'll be back...going to try to stop by a couple more sites real fast. LOL

5/26/2009 6:22:14 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, love the site color change and I love the headers :) So fun and great looking :) I was very happy to hear that your weekend was good, except for the Monday part. Nothing like camping with the family :)

Hi Joey, Thanks for coming to see my latest photos of the botanical gardens. I am glad you enjoyed the view. And you are so sweet and thoughtful with the comments you made. You have put a smile a day. It was a day I hope to remember till my old age. I was thinking of making a book. Since I had made one of Snug harbor and that was a flower book why not make another of this latest outing. Hopefully next week I'll settle in and start a photo book of the Botanical gardens. I'll let you know when it is completed.  This week too may "to do's" to do on my list....

Joey, always happy to see stop by. I'll catch you later.

5/19/2009 5:16:53 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I got my passport!!! It came in the mail last night. Woo hoo!! I'm a world traveler, while maybe not yet but I'm baby stepping my way there :) Looking at a cruise to Alaska and maybe a quickie weekend trip to NY :)
Glad you enjoyed the postcard, Lisa :)

5/19/2009 3:20:40 PM - 002055694880
Hi Joey. The other day you asked it I had posted my book to the gallery and I have not. I have not done one yet that I am ready to post. I have done three books. I am waiting until I have one that I am really proud of before I post it. Also need to take more pics. And need an idea. I want it to be unique and something that has my touch. I am thinking about it tho.

5/19/2009 3:12:53 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, How are you today? Heads up my botanical pictures are now posted on my gallery site...recent photos page. Please feel free to stop by and leave a comment if there is anything that grabs your attention. I always am happy to see when you have left comments on my sites. I will touch base with you tomorrow. Of course you can always play my Guess the Movie game too on my forum page/travel site.

Hi Joey, just stopped by to thank you for your kind words about my pictures. I am trying to spread the travel fever around!!! :) Jamie

5/18/2009 10:40:16 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I very happy you liked your piece of funshine :) I thought you needed a little bit of Texas :) I thought you might know about the pancake thing. It's got a big write up in this travel book of mine and I was wondering if it was a big deal :) Sounds like your dad's pancakes are though :)
I can't stop pouring over my new books and dreaming of traveling to every single place I see :)
I posted the pictures of my mini-adventure this weekend, the story is in the journal. I also posted pictures from making Jean's turtle pretzels..................gosh they are soooo good :) Fast to make, your nieces and nephew would love them :)
Have a great day, Lisa :)

Love the third picture~Kim

5/18/2009 4:10:47 PM - 001076975951
Joey, I'm so glad your SIL found work and it is a job she is happy with. I wish the same for all who are seeking employment including Victoria. Still searching but nothing yet. I'll be glad to share the good news when she does find a job. Her major was Communications Art. Her former job was with a company that was the leading television rep firm that researched tv ratings and sold commercial airtime all across the USA in different markets. But she has interned in publishing too. So there are many places she could work from publishing to advertising to market. So we'll see. Joey are you currently working? And what is your employment? I just hope the employment situations improves for us Americans and soon. I'l catch you later.

5/18/2009 3:53:49 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Glad you stopped by, how was your weekend? Love that photo with the American flag. It is BEAUTIFUL!! This past Saturday went to the Botanical garden and took 150 photos. Hope to have them upload by Wednesday on my Gallery site. I always enjoy my visits here. Have a great day and I'll be by real soon.

5/18/2009 2:54:24 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey........been absent for a while.......and yes, busy! Volunteered at the Special Olympic games and tore my house apart sorting thru items for Purple Heart (charity organization). Still don't have everything put back into order but I am now playing nurse to my DH. He came home sick on Friday and lovingly SHARED HIS COOTIES with me! The good news is that we have had LOTS of snuggle time together these past few days! Gotta love that! Have been trying to catch up in the gallery........but that is about as far as I have made it so far. Love your new family shots and Abby's album.

Take care...........

5/18/2009 11:45:16 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I just lost my post......trying to stay calm. Ok, I'm better :) I was reading in my new travel books that Fargo has some cool stuff there. One of which is the 'Fargo Kiwanis Pancake Karnival', have you been there? It has a whole page write up in this book.
I'll be back gotta go work in surgery this morning, Lisa :)

Hi there Joey,
Wonderful to hear from you and of course, I get such a kick out of your site. Where else can I see pics of cake and the moon !! I have a few more out of town trips these coming months but nothing as grand as Hawaii so not too sure what photographic opportunities are waiting for me.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Barry

5/16/2009 3:51:31 AM - 001024320926

5/14/2009 11:57:38 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Hi there. Forgot to mention...love the new Joey-Fab profile pic - you look cute and sassy! Wow - you are finally warming up in Fargo...almost as warm as it is here lately. I am so ready for 80's and sun and lake fun....sigh....not here yet! Happy Friday!

5/14/2009 9:31:01 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Hope you are well today. Love that moon photo here on your home page. Really nice. Thanks for asking about Victoria. We are doing okay and today she had a job fair. So I hope between the on-line mailings and the job fairs someone bites. So sad to see so many people at the job fair. Men and women..old and young. What a terrible mess we got ourselves into because of, I don't even know how it all started. How is the job market for people in Fargo? Are things tough there too as it is her in NY? Let's us hope for the best and soon.


I love seeing all your comments when you drop by. Thanks for all you good wishes. I'll catch you before the weekend. Enjoy your day.

5/14/2009 3:24:57 PM - 002029331419
Hey Joey...I've been on your site...added a few comments, and now I remember that you asked about my friend..I had to email her about the school...I have no idea! ha! AND! I have to say ..wasn't that Moon great last weekend? We were at a Baseball game on Friday night and I watched it come up and over the stadium..everyone had one eye on the game and one on the moon - that was a crazy looking crowd! LOL! Anyway, you know what I mean! So, when I hear back about the school..I'll be back! (Arnold's voice) ;0)

5/14/2009 2:11:58 AM - 000031826072
Love the new Mother's Day pics, Joey - looks like you had a great one! I'm so glad! Wow, Bambu is getting so big! I've not really been sick, just had a little minor outpatient female surgery and have been recovering. I'm getting more back to normal. Sure have missed everyone, even a few days seems like forever - I miss you all!

5/14/2009 1:45:11 AM - 002010581426

Joey I love your message, I just finished posting one and I came here to tell you :) Your message is great!! Love your site. Love the headers!!
I changed the profile picture this morning, or last night I can't remember now :) but Starla took the picture at Easter :)
Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)

5/12/2009 2:36:46 PM - 001076975951
Joey, I LOVE that new header with the family photos. AWESOME!!!!! You are a beautiful family and may God bless you all and keep you safe. You always have such pleasant surprises for us here. Thanks for stopping by the other day. And I'll be searching soon for places here in my neighborhood that can scan my old pictures and price too. Have a wonderful day Joey :-)

5/12/2009 12:59:58 PM - 002044356817
Joey - that'a a great family photo! My family never wants to take one so I don't have many.

You had asked about my avatar. It's simple to do. Just turn off the flash, pose in the mirror and make sure you are looking at the camera as if someone was taking your picture and then snap. You might have to take a few to compose the shot the way it should be.

~ Carri

5/12/2009 2:41:07 AM - 001023411097
Joey, I love your header and your Mom's pic. Thank you for coming by. I hope your Mother's Day was great. We are all tired and ready to hit the hay for the night. Will look around and talk later. BJ

5/12/2009 2:39:35 AM - 002059624475
Hi Joey, thanks for adding me to your site. With each new member I see the fun things that can be done & shared. I'm hoping to have some new things posted in the next couple of weeks, cross your fingers & your toes!! Have a great week!

Hi Joey, Hope you had a wonderful day with your family :) Love the new headers!! I went to Cabelas and Bass Pro Shop on Saturday but spent Sunday at home chilling, did a little laundry. I'll be posting pictures later day, hopefully :)
Better run for now, Lisa :)

5/11/2009 9:47:20 AM - 001061370098

Have a great day.

5/11/2009 1:28:50 AM - 002059624475
Joey, thanks for stopping by my site. I'm still pretty much a rookie but, Jean, Lisa & Joanne are very encouraging and patient with me :) I work fulltime at a high school but, I have about 8 weeks off during the summer so......that's when I hope to get going on my site. Oh, and I got a new laptop this past week - that will help tons!! Hope you had a nice Mother's Day :)

5/10/2009 3:21:26 PM - 001076975951
Hope your Mom has a wonderful Mother's Day Joey. May it be filled with love and happiness. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. God bless you. I'll visit soon.

By the way, I loved the tribute book you made for your cousins in honor of your uncle.  What a wonderful gift.

5/10/2009 2:35:59 PM - 001003494861
RE: flash use

No real right answer, however, #3501 would not have been the same without it. The softly lit pine really makes that photo pop! Using flash to light the foregound helps to provide depth...if that's what you are trying to achieve.

RE: Family not quite getting it

Same here, but YOU get it, and most everyone else here gets it too! That's why we have really cool photo pages and they don't!

Happy Mother's Day! Talk to you soon!

Michael

5/9/2009 6:42:28 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey......Just quickly stopping in to say hi and hope you have a wonderful day with your Mom on Mother's Day.

Re: The Moon Shots dated May 7th. I learned a lot from Michael's response...so thanks much for posting. And I also like his selection of 3501...GREAT SHOT!

5/9/2009 2:37:06 AM - 001003494861
Hi Joey,

It's very easy to overexpose lunar shots. The best way I have found was to set the camera on manual and monkey around with the exposure until I got the detail right. That typically resulted om underexposure. As I underexposed the shot, the moon tended to go an ugly yellow brown color, but that was easily repairable with most any basic photo editing program. The key, I found, is to expose for the detail in the moon and correct for color later if you need to. Secondly, remember the moon is constantly moving! Any exposure longer than a couple of seconds starts to lose detail due to motion blur, and you can't recover that detail. I'll see if I can dig up some of my experiments and post them for you. IMG_3501 is so nice because it has nice color, nice compositional balance, three levels of depth (Foreground tree, middle range ridgeline with silhouetted tree, and background moon). The more I look at it the more I like it. Nice job!,

5/9/2009 12:38:57 AM - 002055694880
Happy Mother's DAy to you Joey. I'm so sorry I don't have more time. Just wanted to extend my best wishes to you and your family.

5/8/2009 9:58:17 PM - 001024320926
Joey I had to come back and tell you that I was a terrible child to my mom :) I have a pretty wicked sense of humor sometimes and things I use to do to her in the grocery store were, in my opinion, hilarious. We laugh to this day about it all. She would be mad at me when we got home so I would go to her and say I love you Mom, she would look away. Sooo she left me no choice....I would put my arms around her neck, take my feet off the floor and hang there saying I love you until she would smile :) LOL!! My son Rider is much like me and I can't help but laugh with him when he does me the same way. (he can't hang from my neck but does other things like lick my face :)

5/8/2009 9:14:18 PM - 001024320926
PS: Love that your day is a nut in the store with you :) Great story.

5/8/2009 9:13:52 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, stopping by to wish you a wonderful weekend with your mom :) Have a great day!! Blessings, Lisa

5/8/2009 9:06:53 PM - 001003494861
HI Joey, Thanks for stopping by. and leaving such a kind comments. I always hope my photos are at least Interesting, to hear they are intriguing....well that's one of the nicest things you could ever say to me!!! It made my day! BTW, The lunar shots to the left are really nice, especially IMG_3501. Also, I've started to take some basic cloud and sky shots for 'stock' purposes. Thank you for the inspiration. I will eventually get the slide show, that includes your pic, done and get it posted somewhere. Just running behind...as usual. :-) Take care and hope to talk to you soon.

-Michael

5/8/2009 6:37:25 PM - 000093706714
Finally got thru to Jeans Pics........not sure what the prob was...but resolved now. Thanks you!

5/8/2009 6:36:47 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Almost forgot...a new movie game on the forum page of my travel site. A new share a photo game on my gallery site too. Plus a few anniversary photos on the recent photography page of the gallery site. So when you get a few minutes come on by.

Have a wonderful weekend. And I'm so glad I have wonderful S/F friends like you.

5/8/2009 6:34:27 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, I hope you are well. First thank you for the Mother's Day wishes. You are so sweet and I appreciate it. Thank you for keeping my daughter in your prayers. She found out she was being laid off yesterday and they told her that would be her last day. The company laid off 150 people. Today she went back to her college employment/alumni office for advice and to find out about job fairs. So God willing she will find a job and one to her liking very soon. She is young and smart and she has that on her side. Joey, are you currently working? And how are people fairing in the job market in Fargo? I appreciate all the good wishes that you and all my S/F friends are sending out way. Thank you and God bless you.

5/8/2009 6:18:59 PM - 002029331419
Hi Joey...Thanks for the Heads up with Cheri....no blocking on my site...haven't met a Shutterfly Addict I haven't liked! :0)

Tonight..Baseball game with my Hubby! Should be such a nice night and we could use the distraction of getting out of the house and just yelling at the umpires...I'm mean cheering on the Isotopes! They are the farm team for the Dodgers! Always a fun night! Take Care!

5/7/2009 3:55:07 PM - 002029331419

That dog is so cute ! Hi Joey, many thanks for stopping by again, Just returned from a business and a fun trip to Hawaii. Now I need to get my act together and look at the photographs that I have taken, not too many as I was captured by the shear beauty of the place and took many photographs with my mind ! Would love to download those mind photographs, but alas. Hope you are having a fun weekend.

Hi Joey, Love the slicker picture up top. It's rained here almost all week and Gainesville (where my parents live) flooded Wednesday, they evacuated alot of people. My parents are on higher ground 5 minutes East of town, so they were safe.
Hope all is well and I'll check in later, Lisa :)

Hi Joey, I love you header and I can't get enough of the cheese cake. Joey it is so much fun to share with the shutterfly friends. We really have so much in common. Take care and I want to look around more. BJ

5/1/2009 1:43:33 AM - 001030486501
Hi Joey, I am laughing right now because I just realized, I was browsing your site as you were at mine! I have had a lot of fun looking at and getting inspiration from other sites. I wasn't able to find any until Lisa found mine, and it blossomed from there. Any way, love the pictures of the kids! I have a boy and girl that get tired of me snapping photos of them. Always looking for new ideas! I'll be back. Thanks for checking mine out! -Andrea

5/1/2009 12:34:20 AM - 002035364597
Joey, that cherry cheesecake is making me awfully hungry!

4/30/2009 7:48:13 PM - 002006650227
Hey! Thanks for the sweet comment, of course it is fine for you to link to my page, that would be awesome. I'm still getting the hang of it, but I'm excited about my new website. I promise I'll be on here more often than every 8 months from now on! :p

4/30/2009 7:13:51 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Looking at your Old & Kind of New photo slideshow and I love seeing the older pictures. What keepsakes these photos are too precious to keep in a shoebox or albums. These memories need to be shared. Have a great day.

4/30/2009 5:47:53 PM - 002006650227
Hey! I just saw that you made some comments about my photo books 8 months ago (!!!). I'm sorry I didn't see that until now. That's got to be some kind of record for slowest response huh? I'm glad you liked them, I love your page!

4/29/2009 9:10:15 PM - 000031826072
I know what Bambu is thinking...."Hey Zoe, let's run away to a place they can't dress us up in doggy raincoats and stuff. Come on...let's RUN!!!" Too cute!

4/29/2009 4:51:38 PM - 002055694880
I love the dog! That is absolutely toooo cute!

4/29/2009 3:30:04 PM - 000093706714
Wonder what Bambu was thinking???? hehehehehehehehe

4/29/2009 2:08:10 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Just stopping by real quick. Wanted to say Hi and wishing you a wonderful day.

4/28/2009 10:17:51 PM - 001024320926

4/28/2009 6:36:09 PM - 001076975951
How cute are those photos of Miss Bambu? I really like them. Nice new header. Hope you are well today. What have you been up to? Working hard?

Thank you for thinking of me today on this sober day.  Our loved ones will never be forgotten.  Just our selfish part of us wants them here.  Thanks for stopping by and offering your words of comfort.

Take care Joey.  Be by again real soon.

4/28/2009 5:59:15 PM - 001061427203
your doggie is sooooooooo cute!

4/28/2009 12:58:19 PM - 002030359876
Joey, thank you for your wonderful comments on my mother-in-law's bday gift; I worked hard and she loved it! And to hear that others enjoy it as well is great! I love your webpage and look forward to becoming a regular visitor!

4/28/2009 6:08:56 AM - 000093706714
Hey Joey! I have missed you tons and thought of you often during my travels. OF COURSE I have taken tons of pics and will have countless more projects upon my return! hehehehehe I will keep this visit 'short' as I was just jumping online to confirm my flight details for tomorrow - but couldn't resist popping in to send you my good wishes.

Love all the new stuff on your site. Can't wait to sip coffee and make a longer visit.

Hugs!
Cheri

4/28/2009 4:29:06 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - I feel so bad that I haven't stopped by in so long. I was so wrapped up in the Prom, I'm getting all behind in all things Shutterfly!!!! But I have been at least popping in and reading all your warm, wonderful comments about Jordan and the prom and they are so much appreciated. Good stuff for a proud Mom's heart! You are so great about keeping up with everyone!!!! I don't know how you and Lisa, in particular, manage! Amazing! I have to actually start the Jessica Sprague digi class I enrolled in now so that I can fulfill my latest goal...making Jordan's prom pics my first digi book. I've been talking about doing it forver and I just need to take a deep breath and jump in! I' just going to do something simple and basic, but I think the prom pix will be good to use for the first digi book. Wish me luck (I'll need it....) It'll probably take me forever, so don't expect to see it too soon! Hope you are having a great week!

4/27/2009 3:25:13 PM - 002029331419
Hi Joey! Your so good about stopping in on so many sites, mine too! I'm glad you enjoyed my San Diego pics! We were actually at the Hard Rock Hotel...across the street from our hotel when we went upstairs to the 2nd floor called Abbey Road - and there was that big pic of the Beatles walking across the street - it was fun having a sister along that was willing to do funny things with - and then the slide show came out pretty good! :0) Your site is such a reflection of your love for your family! Just by looking through it...I can tell they are very special to you! I love the coloring page! I can't wait until Hannah is big enough to color on a page..and not eat the crayon! ha ha! Have a Terrific Day!

4/26/2009 4:47:40 PM - 001024320926
Forgot to tell you about the Relay and the Miss Bluebird contest. The Relay for Life was awesome, it was as windy as a hurricane and cold but walking on the track kept me warm. The luminary ceremony almost did me in, a milion tears streamed down my cheeks. I was able to light my Popa's luminary and that's what did me in. I took tons of pictures and will post tomorrow. Miss Kyleigh got a trophy for the Queens Court ( a thank you for participating trophy :) she was way more interested in the festivities and didn't want to stand still for her life :) I love that about her. I took pictures of her mesmerized by an Elvis impersonator :) she thought he was great, wouldn't stop looking at him.
Lisa :)
PS: Thanks Joey for always being so great!!

4/26/2009 3:44:35 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I would love to be the Social Director, if there were such a thing. It really makes me happy when I see that everyone is visiting all the sites and connecting so while. It's a good thing :)
Hope all is well for you and yours. I read your speckled egg story and I think it's wonderful :) I love that ya'll did this year too. Gone not forgotten. Love that story.
Have a great day, Lisa :)

4/26/2009 11:20:11 AM - 001061370098

Just want to say Helloooo!

4/24/2009 3:29:08 PM - 000082378991
Love all the header pictures!!!!

4/23/2009 2:03:57 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Joey, Hope you are well today. Thanks for the link. I will look into it and maybe even shop around my area to see if they can restore and add the precious photos on a DVD. I'm so scared to send priceless photos through the mail. Having a tribute book about my dad would be wonderful. My dad had been sick with bone cancer. He went through 14 months of chemo. The sad part is the chemo put his cancer in remission but was too strong for him and it damaged and weaken his heart. He kept retaining fluids and was unable to breathe. He was in and out of the hospital 6 times during the last 4 months of his life. And my Mom & I were with him the day he passed away. Thank goodness both you & I have wonderful memories of our dear family members who have gone. They will never be forgotten.

Anyway, thank you for your comments and stopping by. Joey have you tried playing the Guess the Movie Game on my Forum page. Come on by if you feel up to it.

4/23/2009 11:46:58 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I love the old and kinda new section to left just below :) very neat. Hope your week is being good to you and that your family is doing well. Think about you often :)
Have a good day, Lisa :)

4/23/2009 12:29:25 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks for the comments on my site. You are totally correct everyday I think of my dad. If the Mets win, which he was an avid fan, I think of him. If they lose, I'd said oh Dad would be sad. If I see something he liked I think of him enjoying a favorite food or movie, etc. People say that although you never forget that time will ease the pain. Your uncle was still young 77 years old is young these days.
I had wanted to make a photo book of my dad, but all or at least 80% of the pictures I have would have to be scanned. And the ones that are scanned are of poor quality or very grainy.. A warning symbol is displayed and I'm afraid it won't print well. Any tips or ideas on getting better quality prints from old photos?

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I'll be by soon.

4/22/2009 7:58:14 PM - 000085599530
Hi Joey. I just got up some of the Disney photos on mysite. I am making the rounds because it has been so long since I have said hi...

4/22/2009 6:13:35 PM - 001076975951
Joey, A question about all the people that have signed your map...do they all have Shared Sites here on ShutterflY? You have 39 guests and I didn't know whether you make your weekly visits to all these friends of yours. You are such a true guru..LOL

I didn't know you had 2 sisters, I though it was you, your brother and one sister. Is it Traci, she and you look so much alike. Are you the youngest? Your Uncle Ray and your dad look so much alike too. You can tell they are siblings.

Your niece is so cute in those over sized sun glasses. Oh so cute. How has the weather been in Fargo this past week. Is it warming up yet? Joey, I've been meaning to ask where do you work? And being a Guru that's just for fun, right?

4/22/2009 2:14:17 PM - 001076975951
Joey I love that Old & Kind of New Photo slide show. Beautiful and the memories it must bring back to you & your family. Just precious. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your day.

4/22/2009 4:21:47 AM - 002010581426
Hi Joey,
Thanks for stopping by my site. Will keep checking back with you.

Vicki ~ Angelview

4/21/2009 8:08:43 PM - 001038348079
How long has it been since I have been here? I'm like you. Its so hard to keep up! It will be better for me when I get Alyssa's school DVD done. What a huge job!! Miss talking to you!! Mason has to potty...gotta run

4/21/2009 7:20:56 PM - 001076975951


Anyway, I have chewed your ear off and I let you go. I'll be bye very soon. You always have wonderful header to share and visiting here is a nice place to visit.

4/21/2009 7:19:42 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks for stopping by. I know exactly how you feel about the draining and emotions that you go through when a loved one passes on. Next Tuesday will be a whole year that my daddy is gone. I know that he is in a better place and not suffering. But the selfish side of me says,"Why couldn't he be with us just a bit longer. These days 80 years old is not old.

I didn't know you had 2 sisters, I though it was you, your brother and one sister. Is it Traci, she and you look so much alike. Are you the youngest? Your Uncle Ray and your dad look so much alike too. You can tell they are siblings.

Your niece is so cute in those over sized sun glasses. Oh so cute. How has the weather been in Fargo this past week. Is it warming up yet? Joey, I've been meaning to ask where do you work? And being a Guru that's just for fun, right?

4/20/2009 11:29:25 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Hope you had a good weekend. Love the new headers!! Thanks for all the updates on the GGC site. Have a good night, Lisa

4/20/2009 8:39:39 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Please do not apologize for not being able to make the rounds. I realize that there is a life we all lead. Family events, everyday tasks, work, appointments to keep, etc. I just wanted to stop by and say Hi and I see there is a new header...nice pictures. I hope you are well and the weather is Fargo is getting warmer. In the header picture, is Tina a cousin? Anyway have a great day. Did you happen to watch Amazing race this past Sunday? Good news CBS has renewed for a 15th Race. See you soon.

4/20/2009 6:43:05 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Just stopping in to say I was thinking of you this weekend and saw the new header pics - wondeful! Love the pic of Madeline with the sunglassess - too cute! She's such a doll - reminds me of my niece, Lyndee! And you girls all look awesome!

4/20/2009 6:26:02 PM - 001036346682
Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and your family this weekend.
Love ya, Kim

4/18/2009 9:21:51 PM - 001043414385
Hey Joey, just stopping in to say hello and say thanks for the updates on the bdays and everything else you send us. Keeps me on top of everything! Take care!

4/18/2009 3:18:10 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, My book is on it's way, woo hoo! Can't wait to see it up close and personal, plus be able to read it better :)
As always I love you site and your pictures, your place is nice place to sit a spell :)
Have a wonderful weekend Joey :)
Lisa

4/17/2009 2:03:57 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Just wanted to wish you a happy weekend and hope the weather will be nice enough for you to enjoy up in Fargo. Is it still cold in your neck of the woods? We are expecting warm afternoon and sunshine today. Enjoy whatever you do. And I also loved the Guru photo book what a wonderful idea.

4/16/2009 11:39:42 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey
I do hope that Spring is with you as I type. I am off for a couple of weeks but hopefully, will return with some new photographs.
Barry

4/16/2009 6:35:59 PM - 002055694880
Love the Guru book!

4/15/2009 4:57:34 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, love the headers. Egg coloring was always so fun when I was young. I loved the blue eggs the best :) Now they have those plastic eggs filled with candy too. Mom use to tape money to some of the eggs, thought I was in heaven when I found a egg with a quarter taped to it :) Good memories, thought of all that just from looking at your great headers :)
Have a wonderful day, Lisa

4/14/2009 4:43:13 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey! Sounds like your Easter was good - and no rain...awesome! The header pics of Easter egg coloring brought fond memories...we used to have so much fun doing that as a kid and then with my kids...but now they are too old for the tradition...have to wait one day far away for grandkids, I guess! Glad you liked the Britney look and the SITC t-shirt..I thought the two matched pretty well..LOL. Hope you're having a great day!

4/14/2009 2:26:12 AM - 002055694880
Hi Joey! We used to color eggs when I was a young girl, but we always tried to dip them in every color thinking maybe just ONE time all the colors would not run together or that it would not turn out to be the most hidious egg ever! LOL! What fun it was. Looks like you had a fabulous weekend.

4/13/2009 7:19:01 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Hope you had a wonderful weekend and Easter with your family. Any new photos to share? Did you happen to watch Amazing race? Hope to see you soon.

4/13/2009 6:07:11 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, I hope your weekend was a good one :) Our Easter was good, it rained alot in the morning but we didn't let that hold us back. Kyleigh was a blast to watch hunting eggs :) I posted dome pictures of her on the home page and some on the family page as well. Stop by when you can.
Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)

4/12/2009 6:18:43 PM - 001061370098

REJOICE...HE IS RISEN!

4/11/2009 2:12:08 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Joey, Just checked my site and saw that you left a message. My anniversary is May 5. We have plans to go into the city and see the N.Y. Philharmonic concert and dinner before hand. Our girls will meet up with us after work and go to the concert too. We wanted to include them also. I did enjoy your 2 new books and I'll be taking a second look over the weekend. Enjoy the weekend and God bless you.

Joey,  I also noticed you left a message about the poem for my dad.  I had read that in my local paper where a family member left that message for a loved one who had left way too soon.  I loved the words and they felt exactly as I do about my dad be called back home.  As I know you must feel about your Uncle.

4/11/2009 1:26:16 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, Thanks a bunch for stopping by my site. Glad that you liked the Family Photos page. Your kind comments are very much appreciated. Can you believe I'll be married 30 years next month. Oh My Goodness!! Joey, that is my niece and Godchild who recently got engaged, and she will be married next year Sept. 2010. {Another book} Yes she is the first grandchild to be married so it will be a big event. Looking forward to that family occasion. have a wonderful weekend. And don't worry about not stopping by often, I know there are other things to do and take care of. But you are always welcome to visit my 2 sites. God bless you.

Joey,  Thanks for signing my second map.  Like that photo you used too.

4/10/2009 10:49:46 PM - 001061370098
joey, i finally got it together on my page. got the comments options up and all that. give it one more try. please stop by anytime.

Hi Joey, How are you and your family doing? I hope there are sunny days ahead for you and the people of Fargo. Wishing you a HAPPY EASTER.

4/9/2009 6:11:40 AM - 000093706714
Hey Joey..arrived safely in New Orleans...AFTER another snow storm in Michigan which caused us to lose power and left me packing and trying to get dressed in the dark! Lots of airline delays...but no matter, I kept smiling because I knew I was heading towards SUNSHINE (and good food!) Since arriving, things have been hectic...in a good way. Might take me a day or two to get 'grounded'...but just wanted you to know you are in my thoughts. Cheri

4/9/2009 2:36:44 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Just thinking about you and Fargo and your uncle. Hope you are hanging in there and know that you and yours remain in my thoughts and prayers. Hope that many bright, sunshiney days are in your near future...you so deserve some sunshine in every way! Take care of your beautiful self.

4/8/2009 5:26:19 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Hope all is well and the weather is being good to you and yours, always thinking about Fargo lately. Thanks for the anny wishes, we didn't do anything special just kinda hung out at the house. We aren't alone often so it was nice that night.
I have a new book in mind but I have to learn a few things before I can make it happen but I'm excited about it. Plus I still have the old pictures book and another one I've been thinking about. I haven't amde a book in a while and I'm starting to get withdrawls :)
Have a wonderful day :) Lisa

4/7/2009 2:10:48 PM - 001061427203
Joey, what a beautiful header, sorry to hear about your loss, but I am very happy to hear Fargo is doing better. My prayers are with through this difficult time. Hopefully the sun with come out soon and you can create more warm moments with your family....behind the camera of course...LOL!
Shannon

4/7/2009 1:59:06 AM - 000076820331
Joey, I'm so glad you found my site! I've been a member at shutterfly for years and never created a site. I ran across Lisa's (ElleSnaps) site 2 weeks ago and it really inspired me. I have already become addicted to this. That's okay because I am meeting some really great people and their sites are all beautiful. Each site I visit inspires me to add more to mine! You're site is great! I'll be stopping in again. Alicia (MyOma)

4/6/2009 6:53:19 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, thanks for stopping by. The share site page I thought would be a good way for everyone to meet and greet, get to kow each other. I have so much fun with it that I want everyone else to do the same.
Have a good day :) Lisa

Hi Joey, Hope all is well and I was very happy to read your twitter, Fargo survived the flood. I hope spring is upon you in no time.
I went out this weekend to take pictures in the bluebonnets and the wind was a blowing! It didn't stop Miss Kyleigh though. It was a good afternoon :)
I loved the Memories page, it's a wonderful addition to your site :)
Lisa

Hey Joey - how are you? You are still in my thoughts - big hug! To answer your question - I didn't have my revised Bucket List book posted until just a few minutes ago - but it's posted to Gallery now. Yes, we had a spring blizzard, too - but nothing like yours and it dried up and disappeared within a couple of days. Take care of yourself!

4/4/2009 2:47:27 PM - 001061370098
Hi Joey, being meaning to stop by and visit your site. Your site and books are wonderful. You are a busy photographer.

Thank you for visiting my site and commenting on my books. I love all that you can do with shutterfly.

Peggy.

Joey. Just wanted to wish you a happy weekend. I hope better days are ahead for you, your family and the citizens of Fargo. Wanted to invite you to play the Movie game with Lisa, Jean and I. Mine is located on the Forum page. Love to have you play along. Love to see all the guests who have signed you map. that is so cool.

4/3/2009 6:05:43 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, So now that the snow is melting will it be spring there soon or does it typically take longer? I wishing it sooner for you :) Hope all is well. Have a wonderful day, Lisa

4/3/2009 1:18:17 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey,
Love the memory photographs, so sorry to read about our uncle, no doubt very tough times for you and everyone. Delighted to hear you are surviving the horrible weather, and like Cheri, I am sending warm thoughts your way too !

Barry

4/2/2009 7:01:57 PM - 000093706714
I am soooooo glad to hear the good news regarding the weather! What a relief! Now for some sunshine! Sending warm thoughts your way.

I have also changed my sites around:

Cherished Memories will be for my business: http://cherishingthememories.shutterfly.com/

These Moments Matter will be for my friends & family: http://thesemomentsmatter.shutterfly.com/

Please update the link on your site. (Sorry, I wish I would have thought of this from the get-go! Always just a wee bit slow!!! hehehehehehe) Gotta love us 'old' girls!

Hugs
Cheri

4/2/2009 4:11:16 PM - 000064383827
Hey Joey, Just saw your comment. We are having bad storms here lately. Lot's of rain not like your situation but tornado's and such. I think this weekend will be pretty. It's amazing to see how your dad and brother's look so much a alike. I know that your uncle with be greatly missed.

4/1/2009 6:31:48 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, thanks for stopping by and looking at the San Diego pictures, it was so fun there. I would love to take my family there :) Glad you liked the back in the day photos, I love them :) Just like I really love yours up top. They are a comfort.
Going to take Kyleigh to a bluebonnet field this weekend and take pictures :) Sure hope I get a couple good ones :)
Fargo and you are in my thoughts daily, wishing you the best.
Lisa

3/31/2009 6:00:12 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, hoping today is bringing good things your way. You are in my thoughts. Happy Anny to you as a guru too, that's so great and you are a wonderful one, an inspiration for me :) Have a wonderful day.
Lisa

3/31/2009 5:27:50 PM - 000031826072
Joey - I love all the new pictures - just awesome. The picture of all the brothers and of you at your baptism are so special. You remain in my thoughts and prayers. I changed the name of my site because all the sudden it wasn't showing the entire name (too long I guess.) You go up to the top, I think it's Site Settings or something like that and you can edit the name of your site there. Everytime we see Fargo on the news even Brandon asks about you! I hope the mess is all over soon! Our two day spring blizzard from this weekend lasted exactly two days and then the very next day it was so warm that pretty much everything melted and dissappeared! Amazing. Kansas has psycho weather. It changes by the hour!

3/30/2009 11:49:23 PM - 000093706714
Joey...these images are beautiful. My thoughts remain with you. Hugs! Cheri

3/30/2009 11:47:58 PM - 001024320926
Your header pictures are wonderful. I am truly sorry for your families loss.
Lisa

3/30/2009 8:00:03 PM - 002062362579

3/30/2009 6:28:09 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, I love the new header in memory of your Uncle Dan. Love those old photos. Very nice tribute. How are you doing and the rest of your family and neighbors? Has the river rested yet? Are you still able to live in your home or did you have to evacuate? I hope the citizens of Fargo will be blessed with a happy spring and wonderful summer. I'll be around. Take care.

3/30/2009 6:16:52 PM - 001036346682
Joey, the pictures in memory of your uncle are so thoughtful.  Especially the one on Father's Day last year where your dad and uncles look happy.  That is a testimony to how your family lives.  Thinking and praying for you ~ Kim

3/30/2009 5:59:03 PM - 001024320926
Joey I'm back from San Diego but wanted you to know your were in my thoughts, I pray that the Lord will surround you with comfort and wonderful memories. Sincerely, Lisa

3/29/2009 3:12:11 PM - 001076975951
Joey, I have been thinking of you, your family and all the citizens of Fargo. May you overcome this crisis very soon and may you gain strength and peace knowing that you are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless you. I do love that new header and it is always sad to lose a loved one. I know first hand and may your uncle rest in peace. I also love your baptism picture. That is precious and you are so adorable. Thanks for sharing it with us. Please take care and see you soon.

3/28/2009 4:02:26 PM - 000061342493
Joey, I am sorry about your loss, I know how hard it is to lose people you're close to. I will add you and your family and your community in my prayers. Take care and stay safe!
~Briana

3/28/2009 6:42:45 AM - 000031826072
Joey, I am so sorry to hear about your Uncle. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I'm keeping your whole community in my prayers as well - how amazing are they for their strength and ability to fight the elements. You, your family and your community will remain in my prayers. Take care of yourself. Big Hug, Julie

3/28/2009 5:22:41 AM - 000093706714
Please forgive...I just noticed your new header photo. My condolences Joey......to your entire family. xxxxx cheri

3/28/2009 5:19:54 AM - 000093706714
Joey...I have stayed glued to the news and sent up many prayers for the safety of you and your whole community. The neighbor helping neighbor news has been very inspiring. It is how we should be EVERY DAY...not just in times of trial. It is is a true testimony of our capabilities.

I am sending you good wishes, hugs and smiles for the sunnier days ahead THAT ARE COMING. May the Lord's hand of strength be over all of you right now. Love,Cheri

3/28/2009 2:54:42 AM - 001031312785

Oh Joey! I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your uncle. I can tell what a close family you have and know what a tremendous loss this is. Your baptism photo is precious beyond words and my prayers are with you and your family. I wish I could give you a real hug as well but a virtual one will have to do for now. {Hugs to you}
Love,
Vickie

3/27/2009 4:29:33 PM - 001099993350
Thinking about you and your family Joey. Amazing to think that a river can crest that high.

Barry

3/27/2009 2:35:43 PM - 001076975951
Joey I will say a prayer for all the people of Fargo and the surrounding areas. May this difficult time pass quickly. And may the days ahead be happy and sunny. I see it every night on the news and it is heartbreaking. There are good people out there and I see that neighbor helping neighbor. God bless you all. And I really like your new header. May Uncle dan Rest In Peace.

3/27/2009 12:37:20 PM - 000082378991

Saw your plight on Yahoo News. Praying for your safety!

3/26/2009 12:01:19 AM - 001099993350
What is going on with your weather Joey ? Looks like either snow or rain in the Dakota's. I do hope Spring gets to you soon and warms up your spirit.
Barry

3/25/2009 5:48:41 PM - 002060301717

3/25/2009 4:52:02 PM - 000093706714
Thinking of you.........keep me posted on the conditions.

3/25/2009 3:05:17 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Joey, Last night on the nightly news they had a story about the floods in Fargo. They showed all the people filling up sand bags and neighbor helping neighbor to prevent damage with the floods expected to come your way. Are you doing okay? I hope there will be no major damage and that you and your fellow neighbors experience as little damage as possible. Anyway I just wanted to stop and say I'm think of you. God bless and have a good day.

3/24/2009 6:06:40 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Hope all is well. Hope the weather is treating you well and no flooding. Just stopping by to see all your good stuff, love your site :)
Have a wonderful day.
Lisa

3/24/2009 4:26:25 AM - 001043414385
Just love all these cool pics you have on the site, especially the header photos, take care!

3/23/2009 11:55:11 PM - 000093706714
Don'tcha just LOVE that little penquin? When I found him, I swear I almost peed my pants. I was sooooooooooo determined to get him to work on my page. And what about that title? Can you tell the kind of mood I was in? I am going to leave him on for a long while. Home alone installing him and I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING!!! Challenge game to Simon (Guest page). You go first. And don't forget to record your score...and no cheating Jo-Jo!

P.S. Almost finished with a new album.

3/23/2009 7:55:00 PM - 000093706714
Love the new header shots...you are SUCH A GREAT AUNTIE! Hoping the weather has made a turn for the better. Have you in my thoughts and prayers.

3/23/2009 6:40:40 PM - 001076975951
Joey, One more thing about Amazing Race, I read this on the web today. http://www.philridesacrossamerica.com/about_ride.html

Phil is riding across America to raise funds for M.S. and along the way sign up people for the next Amazing Race. Check it out.

3/23/2009 6:20:54 PM - 000085599530
I want some of that cheesecake! It looks Yummy....and I will become that Rubenesque kitty...hahah

3/23/2009 3:30:36 PM - 001076975951
Hi there Joey, Hope you had a nice weekend. I did get to take a handful of photos this weekend and I hope to upload them this afternoon. What did you get to do this weekend? I did see Amazing race and very sad the poverty that is all around India. I am rooting for Mel & Mike. I like their relationship. Would you ever run the race? And if so with who? Anyway have to run but see you around.

3/23/2009 3:12:16 PM - 001038348079
Yummmy...you send cheesecake i'll send nice weather? DEAL? Miss you....I like you have been SO bad about visiting...Kids are keeping me sooo busy. You'll have to visit my site and get a dose of spring flowers...Miss you..gotta run and leave a few more comments...Stay safe!

3/23/2009 12:59:48 PM - 001061427203
oh man, that cheescake is killer........my mouth is sooooo watering right now. MMMMMMMMMMMMM

3/22/2009 2:48:02 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, my husband was diagnosed with diabetes this week, it bummed us out, so I don't I'll be making any cheesecake anytime soon. Gosh yours looks so wonderful, very festive :) I'll probably end up doing something for work instead.
Better run, I loved your Christmas card!!
Lisa

3/21/2009 9:54:24 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey Girl! Sorry to hear that you are still all slushy mushy up there...but at least you are thrawing out! It's beautiful here today...I love Spring so I'm happy to see it. You cracked me about about the cleavage tattoo comment...believe me girl, I can't find mine either! You just gotta do the best you can with what you got! Cute new headers of the kids......it's great to have endless photography material with all those adorable nieces and nephews of yours, huh? I've been sick all week so I've been a bad, bad Shutterfly girl. My Mom was giving me grief today because she checks my site daily and I haven't put anything new there. I guess I've got to get on it. Just been so fatigued from being sick it's all I can do to get to work and come home and check FB and then collapse on the couch. Hope you are having an awesome weekend.

3/21/2009 5:44:28 PM - 001036346682
Did you whip that yummy cheesecake up Joey!

3/21/2009 2:22:09 AM - 001076975951
Hi there Joey, Glad you stopped by and yes that was snow flakes you saw on the Today show. We received a dusting this morning but by noon it was all gone. Love the cheesecake picture. YUMMY:-) By the way CheriL was able to return to my site and leave me a message. Thanks for the heads up. Hope you have a good weekend and sunny and warm days ahead for you in Fargo.

3/20/2009 10:00:56 PM - 001024320926
Happy first day of spring!!

3/20/2009 4:11:05 AM - 000093706714
Hey JoJo.......page updates look great. But no, I have no envy for the header shot conditions! Personally, I think we have had more than our fair share and it is now time to say SPRING IS HERE & ONLY SUNSHINE IS ALLOWED! hehehehe)

Re the cheesecake photo....wish you would have had a timer running on how quickly it disappeared!!!

3/19/2009 11:18:34 PM - 001003494861
I swore, leaving the North Coast, that I'd never miss snow. Looking at your header pix, and some of the stuff Connie has done, has really made me a little homesick. The town photo is gorgeous. You take the most beautiful sky photos, with some of the most liquid blues I've seen. I can only stew about nailing those hues. Mine always come out too grainy. Your cloud formations were wonderful, and I'm still working on that project (I'll give you the one up when it's done)

3/19/2009 11:39:29 AM - 001024320926
I'm thinking I may have to bake something this weekend. Your cheese cake has inspired me, it's so pretty :) Thanks for all the help on emails and posting my pictures :) Have a wonderful day.
Lisa

3/17/2009 4:37:08 PM - 001024320926
Your strawberry cheesecake looks awesome :) yum!

3/16/2009 5:00:17 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Still love the snow pictures but hearing the reality of flooding for you takes the fun out of it. I sure hope ya'll don't get much flooding, none if possible. I love your comment on twitter......my tp doesn't say much although it is quilted or so the package lable says :) Hope all is well and that you are not sleepy today, have a good day :)
Lisa

3/15/2009 9:27:22 PM - 000031826072
Wow - beautiful pictures of the blizzard - although I wouldn't want to be stuck in it! Hope you are keeping warm and toasty and drinking lots of hot cocoa, Joey! Have a good week!

3/15/2009 7:37:17 PM - 001036346682
That must be the snowbank by your kitchen window. Whatever you do don't open it!

3/15/2009 5:46:06 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Thanks for stopping by it was wonderful to see you comment in my guest book page. Although blizzards are NEVER fun, I must tell you those photos in your header are beautiful. Sure makes a picture perfect postcard. I truly hope that there is no flooding in your area and that spring will make an appearance very soon. Keep warm and enjoy a hot cup of cocoa, relax and watch Amazing Race. Please stop by again real soon. It is always nice reading your comments.

3/15/2009 4:58:06 PM - 000085599530
Wow...look at those headers! Snow everywhere...I think we are all ready for spring!! Thanks for the comment on Alyssa's kindergaten book. I think it came out great too. She was so little then. She was so proud of it, she took it to school to share. I am going to really try to keep up with visiting the share sites..I just havent had the time lately and I feel bad....see ya sooo!

3/15/2009 2:24:18 AM - 001024320926
I've been out of the scene for a whole day :( so much stuff going on. Thanks for stopping by my site. Yea, it's kinda fun having the Wonder book featured. It's kinda cool that it's a shuttefly template and has been used by so many of use :) All great :) Thanks for the congrats :)
I love your new headers, that snow looks so cool :). Makes me think I need to work on new headers, I need to get a list of things I need to do together. Have to make notes or I won't get it done.
Have a great weekend.
Lisa :)

3/14/2009 1:15:02 AM - 001076975951
Just stopping by to say Hello and see how you are doing Joey? Has all the snow disappeared in your city? I can see from the weather section here on your home page that is is still bbrrr cold in Fargo. Will warm up soon I hope. How is the family doing? Great going Joey you have so many guests on your map. That is wonderful.

What's up this weekend, any special plans? What ever you do have a good time and enjoy.

By the way, how are you enjoying Amazing Race?  Any favorite teams now that we are a few episodes into the race?  I think Germany and Switzerland were so beautiful.  Makes me want to go there some day.  Siberia is way too cold for me.  I'll skip that destination.  Only 7 months till my cruise.  I am so excited but don't want to rush it.

3/12/2009 9:55:04 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Just stopping in before I have to leave to get Kyleigh, she's my little sunshine :) I have been singing that to her since she was born :) Love it. I hope all is well. If I don't see ya on the FB I'll see you in the Gallery :)
Lisa :)

3/12/2009 6:04:48 PM - 000093706714
You are my sunshine....my only sunshine! You make me happy...when skies are gray! and then...repeat!
Hope you are having a good day JoJo.

3/12/2009 2:01:50 AM - 000093706714
Madeline is obviously being trained by the BEST! (shopping comment) Looking forward to a 'coffee break' with you soon!

3/9/2009 6:27:54 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Wish you had been on the FB just a little sooner the other night. We would have enjoyed having you in our bee sting conversation :) I am still laughing. Love what you wrote though. Nothing better than laughing :)
Hope the weather is starting to let up for you, getting the warmer stuff. It was in the high 70's yesterday, just beautiful. Took Kyleigh out for some pictures but she was too interested in the ground to care about me and the camera.
Hope all is well, better get to work, Lisa :)

3/8/2009 9:44:43 PM - 001066325224
Joey, It's great hearing from you. Thanks for stopping by. Things have been wacky with my internet and now we are getting hit with either the flu or some stomach virus. While running with Cam to the bathroom, I think I broke my toe! Although we had snow last Sunday, it is 76 degrees today. What a beautiful day, I'd love to be outside. Hope Spring comes your way soon. ~ Diana

3/8/2009 2:43:02 PM - 001099993350
What a terrific series of header pics Joey, arrrgh, just saw your Twitter and realized that I did not put my clocks forward, all okay though as I am enjoying this unseasonably warm Sunday morning in Virginia, ha. Hope all is well
Barry

3/7/2009 3:56:49 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Thanks for the advice on the Guru stuff, I knew I could count on ya :) You asked about Connie and I, I forgot to answer. Connie have never met, we started talking thru shutterfly then email and now on the phone. She is a font of information about digiscrapping. She's very nice and I really enjoy her :) I am really enjoying all the people I've gotten to know thru shutterfly and now the FB. We should have a Shutterfly Meet like in Hawaii :) It would be kick butt fun I'm sure.
Better get going, until next time, Lisa :)

3/7/2009 2:17:27 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, I hope you are doing well and it is only busy days with work and family that have kept you from making your rounds.  Are you still experiencing headaches?  Do you get them often?  Oh well do you have any special plans for the weekend? Here in NYC we are expecting warmer weather and maybe some rain. At least it is better than snow. Who are your favorite teams on the Amazing Race? I like Luke and his mom, Mike and Mel and the stunt brothers. This is my favorite "Reality Show". I really don't watch many reality shows but I love this one. By the way how is your family doing? Take care and have a nice weekend.

3/6/2009 7:11:33 PM - 000093706714
Hey 'Jo-Jo'! (I always give pet names to my FAV peeps!) Just doing a quick round of site visits as I ready myself to finish a few pages. The sun is GLORIOUS here today and I am finding myself giddy like a child. Which is also making it hard to remain focused! hehehehe I will visit again soon.

3/5/2009 12:17:57 AM - 001038348079
Hey there...I like you have been neglecting my site jumping. Thought i'd pop in and see what's new....I've been playing with the DS ing....Made a fun page with the kids on it today...Talk to you

Thank you for the congrats Joey!!!!! We are so happy :)

3/2/2009 6:59:02 PM - 001024320926
I love the new headers, they look like lively bunch :), just my kind of crowd. Thanks for the heads up on the FB photobook picture, I'll try again tonight. Love that we have so many ways to keep in touch. Love the Kids Coollage page, too fun. Hope all is well, Lisa :)

3/2/2009 12:17:17 AM - 001061427203
Hi Joey, wow looks like someone in the family knows how to play guitar hero. I have heard so much about it, really do need to try it, though i do not have a musical bone in my body...LOL!

2/28/2009 12:23:47 PM - 000093706714
Hey Joey......just dropping in to view the site and give my thanks for all your warm and very welcoming wishes! My guys have been taunting me about my b'day so the weekend should be full of giggles........for THEM! hehehehe Spring weather wishes coming your way!

2/28/2009 2:26:24 AM - 001076975951
Just checking in to say Hi. How are you feeling these days. Better I hope. WOW you have so many guests who have signed your map. That is so cool. I hope you have a good weekend. Take care. Warm wishes are being sent your way.

2/27/2009 11:23:23 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Thanks soooo much for the warm welcome. I look forward to working with you all and I know we'll be silly and funny and have a ton of fun :) In Ann's comment below, are you talking about the 5X7 book? I have all the girls here at work using shutterfly and buying books now, Lorri got a free 5X7 for free and it was adorabe. It turned out reall, really neat. I was happy for her. Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)

2/27/2009 1:13:14 AM - 000085599530
Hey Joey... I have made a few 5x7's. I like them for showing off a single event. I think I have done 4. My first was a baby book for Trinity just to see what they were all about.

Hi Joey:  Hope you are feeling better these days.  Really like the Laugh, Dream, Inspire shot as well as the photo of the desk art.  Great job.  I am determined to be productive today so I will sign off with my good wishes for a WARMER day!  Cheri

2/24/2009 12:29:10 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Hope your headaches are better. I saw your twitter comment, scanning can be a big ol pain but the results are oh so worth it. I have soooo many photos I want to scan, gotta plan that out. You're probably making another wonderful photobook, color me jealous!! I just can't seem to make what I want work, I have about three books I want to do but I start and don't finish because I'm not happy with them. I'll get there. My internet was down over the weekend and that was a pain, I think it's up today. I hope all is well, have a wonderful day,   Lisa :)

Hi Joey,

Been crazy few weeks at work and other stuff, and does not appear to be letting up, so very few visits to Shutterfly. I do not mind the craziness I guess since I did choose it ! However, I do feel that I need to give myself some time with the camera again, roll on Spring !!

Hi Joey, love the header pictures, especially the little punkin going thru the pantry :)

Thanks bunches for all the Birthday wishes on my site and the FB. It was a wonderful day full of little surprises, totally not expected. So I thought I need to take pictures, too fun for me :) I didn't actually dance on my desk but I was pretty silly all day and I can bust a move just any time, especially to Justine Timberlake. (all my co-workers know that) All my shutter pals made my day, Thanks a ton :)

Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)

2/20/2009 2:35:19 PM - 001076975951
Hi there Joey,  How are you today?  Hope you and your family are all well.  Thanks for stopping by my sites.  Oh my you watch Amazing Race too?   I always have watched and enjoy that show.  I love to see the different place they travel to and all the tasks they have to take part in.  Sometimes it is LOL funny.

Yes I will be cruising this year but not until the end of Sept into October.  14 day cruise to the Med.   I can't wait!!!!!  I'm so excited.

What are your plans for the weekend?  Whatever you do enjoy and have fun.   "Talk" to you soon.

2/20/2009 4:59:50 AM - 001003494861
Oh no, chocolate!  Whatever you do, don't do donuts next!...especially not cream filled, iced with sprinkles, or eclairs...no, never eclairs!  Still, the kisses are looking pretty good!  :-)

2/19/2009 7:37:13 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - how's it going?  You always do such a terrific job on your headers..love this one - gotta love chocolate kisses!  That hush statue is just awesome. I love stuff like that!!!! So unique. Sounds like you had a great V-Day and so did we.....dinner and a movie, chocolates and a new diamond necklace!  Woohoo!  During the day we went bowling with my parents - that was fun - didn't get many pics though.  Hope you are doing great.  Talk to you soon!

2/19/2009 1:24:46 AM - 001061427203

Hi Joey, hope things are going well, hopefully winter will be winding down REALLY soon, and those flowers will pop through...I really liked you hush statue picture, thats pretty neat. I'm not as creative with my words as Lisa, but I also really like your header, how unique.

Ok I'm in with Michael, I need to lose an undisclosed amount of weight and I come by to say hi and am assaulted by my favorite candy on the planet :) Yum, yum, I am resisting the urge to lick the computer screen. Ok now I'm shaking, got.....to.....have.....Hershey......kisses.....must.....have!!

I have to go Joey, I think Walmart carries the 9 pound bag of those..............on my way :)

Lisa :)

2/18/2009 3:23:59 PM - 001076975951
Good day Joey,   Love the new header.  I should enjoy it before Lent.  I'm giving up chocolate this year.  How are things in your neck of the woods?   I'm going to have to check out your site if you have any new additions when I have some time.  Got to run.  be back soon.

2/17/2009 11:34:12 PM - 001024320926

Joey I took your advice and deleted the ugly comment, I just thought that it would only feed their desire to continue being ugly so I left it. People crack me up sometimes.

I saw your new photobook and loved it, too fun. You are a very pretty lady :)

Have a wonderful day, Lisa :)

2/17/2009 7:06:23 PM - 001003494861
Man, that header is just not fair!  I'm trying to lose a BILLION pounds this year, and the first thing I see on your page is candy hearts!  Oh, the injustice!  Seriously though, this is exactly what I was talking about with 'stock' photos.  Those types of pictures make great backgrounds for photo pages, title pages!, collage pages, etc...header photos!  It's perfect!  Can't wait to see Easters!   -Michael

2/16/2009 11:39:21 PM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Did you see where someone had left a comment on Kyleigh's little birthday that I'm fat and old? Hilarious!!

2/16/2009 6:29:49 PM - 001024320926

Looooooooooovvvvvvvvveeeeeee the header picture :) too fun!! I hope all is well. Thanks for the comments on my site and the FB, it's a load of fun to share like that.

Have a great day, Lisa :)

PS: I have been sick with something ever since the third week after surgery. It all came to a head on Thursday last week. They say it's a sinus infection but I can tell you I have never been that dizzy before (not even drinking :). I am better, but it has been a long haul.

I read that you're having headaches, I hope they get better. Take care, take naps or just take comfort in knowing we care what happens to you :)

2/16/2009 2:17:23 PM - 001061427203

stopping by to say hello, haven't heard from you in a while. I myself haven't been around much. I do alot on Facebook and have to get over here more often to catch up. Everyone has such great things to say about each other...I lot it. Your header shot is fantastic, how cool is that.

Shannon

2/15/2009 2:25:10 PM - 001043414385
Hey Joey, How cool is the header shot, you stay so updated with your site. I really need to update mine so bad. If we only had the time to really play, lol. Thanks for stopping by my site. Have a great week!

2/14/2009 3:58:36 PM - 000093706714

Hey Joey

 

Love the new header shot!  Perfect for the occasion.  That schnazzy camera of yours seems to be working REALLY well.  I haven't been 'cruising around' as much lately.  Getting distracted on way too many things and so I haven't been designing any pages!  OH MY!  giggle.  Hard for us OLD GALS to say focused!  Stay in touch and take care.  Happy Valentines Day!

2/14/2009 3:42:01 PM - 001076975951
Happy Valentine's Day my Shutterfly friend.  How are you doing today?  I hope all is well with you and your family.  I must tell you I LOVE the new header.  Terrific!!  You always have these amazing headers and your site is always a great play to visit.  Have a great weekend and hope your weather is getting warmer.  Enjoy Joey.

2/14/2009 3:20:17 PM - 001038348079
Hello my Shutterfly friend...Where in the world have you been?  hope all is well with you!  Love your header picture.  So so cute!!  miss talking to you!!!!

2/12/2009 3:49:16 PM - 001076975951
Joey,  I LOVE the new photos on your header.  Especially the collection of your photo books.   Great picture.   So how are you doing my dear Shutterfly friend?   Thanks for stopping by both my shared sites.  Always glad when you drop by.  

2/12/2009 2:37:29 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey

2/11/2009 7:24:54 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, hope all is well. Just wanted to check in. Love the new headers. Especially the photobooks :) so cool. Have a wonderful day :)

Lisa :)

2/11/2009 6:24:49 AM - 001003494861
Hi Joey,

Thanks for stopping by the site!  I'm glad you like it.  Yeah, that whole air show thing is kind of a passion of mine since I was a child.  Last year,  I did 4 majors and a minor show as well as the balloon race.  Told myself that was enough for a while.  I guess the winter counts for a while, because I already have three dates lined up this year, invites to another two, a couple of balloon races I want to hit, as well as the Dayton/Vectron show etc.  I really gotta get some good front lit photos of the Blue Angels this year!  Ohhhhh, I can't wait for spring!!!  If you have a chance, check out Bernard Zee's site:  BZ's Photo Gallery.  He has a great set of photos of the Blue Angels over SF Bay during last years Fleet Week.  And LauriB's Reno Air Race album was wonderful!  There is so much latent talent here on Shutterfly.  I am just constantly surprised.  Thanks again, for stopping by.  Come back anytime!   -Michael

2/10/2009 7:07:41 PM - 000085599530
...I am kinda embarrassed about the Me book.  But I had those pictures and they turned out pretty cool. I knew they would look great with black back grounds and white edges.  I am not sure what I am going to do with it.  Maybe give it to my husband?

2/9/2009 11:00:41 PM - 000085599530
Hi Joey... It is been awhile since I have popped in to say HI.  Hope all is well with you and you are staying warm.  Sunny but still cold here in Nor CA. I love the stack of your books.  That is so funny that you did that ... I am looking at a stack of mine right now and thought...boy I didnt think made so many?!!  Great work my dear!!  see  ya soon in gallery...

2/9/2009 6:57:06 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, I hope all is well. Your temp says it's in the 30's and that better than in the single digits, I hope it feels like a huge warm up for ya. I have the flu or a bug or something, I spent the entire weekend in bed. I'm not sure how long I'm gonna make it here at work today, we'll see. Working on a couple photobooks but nothing is gelling for me right now. I'll keep working on it.

Better run for now, Lisa :)

2/9/2009 3:35:46 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey...Hope you had a lovely weekend.  Thanks for stopping by and becoming a member on my new gallery site,  welcome and glad to see you stop by anytime.  I'm going to browse your site and see if anything is new.  Take care!!

2/7/2009 4:13:16 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  How have you been?  Hope all is well with you and your family.  Not much has been happening with me.  Same old stuff just a different day. I think since the weather will be warming up today  I'll be  going out this afternoon.   Maybe  shopping, maybe a walk at my local park anyway I just wanted to tell you I am working on a second Shutterfly Shared Site.  Feel free to visit.

http://joannesphotographygallery.shutterfly.com/

Enjoy your weekend and take care. 

2/7/2009 3:55:36 PM - 001044522606

Hey Joey,

 

Thank you for all of your kind remarks about my books. You are very sweet. All of your work is great too. All of this is so cool...so do you work for shutterfly? I get comments from Shutterfly gurus...so I am just trying to figure it all out. I love your website too.

 

Make it a great day!

 

Annette

2/5/2009 4:23:06 AM - 001038348079
Thanks for the comment on my new book!  After ummm...100 jelly belly's for Alyssa to get her picture taken...and changing the paper ummm.....4 times...I got it done. hahaha...I'm addicted to the scrap stuff now...LOVE IT.  How are you doing...You have been kinda quiet lately!!  Miss you and hope you are well!!

2/5/2009 1:59:30 AM - 001066325224

Hi Joey,

Sorry it's been so long since I've had a chance to stop by.  I am enjoying all of your new updates.  It looks like Old Man Winter has been giving you a hard time this year.  Surprisingly enough, your 16 degrees isn't much colder than our North Carolina 24 degrees right now!  Stay warm :)  ~ Diana

2/4/2009 1:54:48 PM - 001063913611
Hi stranger! Hope you are staying warm. The groundhog saw his shadow so that means 6 more weeks until spring. Yea! Don't mean to rub it in but I was in shorts yesterday pruning my rosesl 72 degrees. Love your new profile photo. Later!

2/4/2009 12:03:25 AM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, no apolgies necessary chickie!! Life happens doesn't it. Thanks for your comments, as always I love seeing you've stopped by.

Lisa :)

2/2/2009 6:50:54 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, I'm having a much better day then I was on Friday night, just got a little too frustrated :( I went to my Mom's for my Granny's 90th birthday and took a bunch of pictures of Kyleigh and her cousins on the trampoline, it was hilariuos, she had a ball. I changed up my collage page too, hope you can check it out sometime.

I'm definitely not a Steelers fan and was way bummed when they won. Hopefully my Cowboys can pull their act together next season and go to the super bowl. You'll hear me screaming from Texas if that happens :) I loved Bruce, the Boss too. I took a picture of him on the TV, my husband thinks I'm a total square :) I'm always looking for the next laugh :)

Hope all is well and come visit me sometime, I love it,

Lisa :)

2/1/2009 4:44:22 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  How are you and your family doing?  Keeping warm I hope.  Love the new additions to your site and Oh my you have so many people on you map.  That is wonderful.  How is everything going?  What have you been up to lately?  I always enjoy visiting you site...it makes me happy.

1/31/2009 10:07:53 PM - 001099993350
Wow, thank you so much for the mentions of my work, you are very generous Joey.
You captured your nieces and nephew beautifully, made me smile.
Barry

1/31/2009 12:32:57 AM - 001038348079

Hey there...Did you wonder where I had been?  Been so sick this week with the flu.  Mason and I both!  No fun!  Shannon and Lisa have been keeping track of me though....I've been working hard to get a photobook done before the end of the sale but I don't think that is going to happen now...too many days lost!  Oh well, it will keep until the next one!!  

I hope you are staying warm there!!  I'll be back this wknd to check out your site to see what's new!  Gotta make my rounds real quick!!!

1/30/2009 1:26:43 AM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Thanks for the comment on my little 4x4, it was too fun and fast to make. I will definitely be making more especially for the kids in the family :)

I see the weather is being very harsh on you, hope you're staying warm!! Thanks for everything Joey, Lisa :)

1/27/2009 7:10:15 PM - 000085599530

Hello... first can I say I hope you are under a warm blanket! Holy cow -6...wow..  We are at 40 and it is 11 am here in Nor Cal.  You are going to crack up about the way I took these pictures of myself yesterday.  I did it as a joke for a friend of mine on Facebook.  We are always laughing about people who take picture after picture of themselves and just keep posting every little angle.  So I thought I would do the same and post it and see what her comment would be.  So I sat in my living room yesterday morning and pointed the camera at my face and started snapping way.  Now granted some of them were really bad, but the ones with the hair across my face came out pretty cool.  I am not the one for taking my own picture but I am shocked how great these came out. I didnt focus or anything. I guess there is something to say about how cool the camera is too. The whole set is on Facebook.  I put the ones with the hair across my face on my site. I feel a bit funny with getting all this attention. So see what just snapping and not caring can mean

1/26/2009 6:56:22 PM - 001061427203

Holey Cow, i stopped by to check out some pictures and the first thing that hit me was the temperature there in ND. Jeepers, I think i will take our our 100 feet of snow over that temperature any day:-). It was -2 when i left for work but atleast it has warm to a balmy 19 degrees. Hope you are staying warm

1/26/2009 6:47:50 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, How's it going? I love the new header pictures!! And the pink background is very festive, Happy Valentines Day!! Hope the weather is being good to you. We are under a winter freeze warning, supposed to start freezing rain at 6 tonight. I can promise you that if that happens North Texas highways are going to be a big ol' mess!! I do plan on taking my camera out and about, see if I can get some pictures of the freeze. I made a couple changes on the home page, tell me what you think next time your out site hopping.

Until next time, Lisa :)

PS: Just notice the temp there, Wow!!! That is cold my friend. Be careful!! I read that the guru's books will be featured alot lately. I think that's great!! Can I recommend some of my favorites (of Gurus) to shutterfly for featuring? Is that ok?

1/26/2009 1:54:26 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey,

1/25/2009 2:19:10 PM - 001099993350
Great header Joey ! I did send you an email recently just to let you know that you are most welcome to have/use any of my photographs (and anyone who happens to read this). Simply email me and I will send you the full size file of that pic.  Hope all is well.
Barry

1/24/2009 10:34:12 PM - 001076975951
I see you added new photos to your header.  Very nice Joey, I like them.  Thanks for answering my guru question.  Which book do you think I should enter?  I don't know which one is good enough to enter into the contest.


 Any plans for the weekend?  My local news said Fargo, N.D. is really, really, cold.  OUCH it must hurt just stepping outside.  Have a hot cup of cocoa and relax.  Talk to you soon.

1/24/2009 7:41:50 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Just wanted to stop in and thank you so much for all your kind comments and support of late.  It means so much to me.  It's been a super busy week, but I found a little time to Shutterfly here and there and relax a bit.  Dan's celebration was perfect - couldn't have been more special.  I'm getting ready to install Photoshop finally and take a class with Stacey and dip my little toes into the digi scrapping thing.  I've been wanting to forever but I just don't have much confidence in myself with it.  It will be fun to try, though!  Hope you are having the bestest of weekends!

1/23/2009 10:45:03 PM - 000085599530
Wow... I love the pink valentines theme for the site. Great headers too...  I love the close up

1/23/2009 5:50:23 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Thanks for the pick me up. Don't be surprised if I do email ya, you'll need coffee and a writing table :) Thanks for the offer, I'm doing good just had a moment, ya know.

I liked seeing you on facebook, I started out with 4 friends and I have way more than that now, too fun. I still love my share site the best though. I love the pictures!!

I'll be seeing ya either or there, always enjoy visiting!!

Lisa :)

1/22/2009 2:32:24 PM - 001024320926

Joey I added a link to my site for the contest on the Home page and the Photobook page about the Shutterfly Challenge. Hope that helps get the word out. Let me know if I need to add anything, I'm always happy to help.

Kinda down today, nothing major just not up to my bag of tricks.

I love all your pictures, it's so good to be able to show our love of our families or favorite things thru photography and Shutterfly. That's the beauty of photography it's relative, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You don't have to be a master photographer to be one. All you have to do is take pictures!! The perfect atmosphere for me.

Better run for now, hope all is well, stay warm :)

Lisa :)

 

1/21/2009 7:52:35 PM - 001076975951
Greetings Joey.  Hope you are doing okay and that the floods will be minimal and there wont be too much damage.  Glad you liked the new pictures on my page the boots and the snow-covered tree.  Did a little snapping these past few days, but not as much as I wanted to.  By the way, what exactly is a Shutterfly guru?  I will spread the word about the contest.

1/20/2009 5:31:52 PM - 001076975951
Thanks for stopping by Joey.  Hope you and your family are well.  Thanks for the challenge link.  Which one have you entered into the contest?   Hope you are keeping warm.  Here it is in the 20°s and want the spring to arrive soon.  Can't wait for temps. in the 70°s Have added a few new picture of the recent snowfall to my site.   Take care and stay warm and cozy.

1/19/2009 8:33:55 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, I forgot to tell you I saw your comment on my family page, that little Canon is an excellent camera. You can do alot with it. It has some cool software with it too. She was so excited about it. I hope you like you camera too :)

Lisa :)

1/19/2009 6:41:20 PM - 001003494861
Thanks for your very kind comments.  I took you up on your invite and visited here too.  Can I just say that your photobooks are wonderful!  What a tribute to your parents.  I done a photo 'yearbook' now for the 2 years, and my daughter recently informed me that I have to do that every year...till I die.  As you can probably guess, I've got a couple of passions in life, my children/grandchildren, things that fly, and photographing both!  I posted this at a couple of other sites and I'll say it to you too: Your site, like the others, is really an inspiration to reach beyond the subjects I am comfortable with and to start experimenting again, like I used to.   Thanks for the invite, and you are welcome back anytime.  - Michael

1/19/2009 2:35:24 PM - 001024320926

Thanks Joey for the comment on Kyleigh's book, that's the one I entered in the challenge, we'll see. Even though I love that book I know there's way better in the gallery. That's where I get all my inspiration.

Thanks for the comment on my Nascar page. I'm a nut about Nascar. It is so much fun at the races, just killer fun. I have many, many more pictures but I would have to scan them. That's on the project list :)

I love that year in review photobook and have wanted to do it for awhile. Your layout sounds great!! Can't wait to see it finished. I also like the Celebrate Everyday Life photobook too, I really want to do that one too.

Hope all is well, Lisa :)

1/19/2009 1:05:13 PM - 001061427203

thank you for the heads up on the photobook challenge. Will have to look through the books i have, after looking at everyone else's i think my are pretty basic. I am currently working on a new one that is using digital scrapbooking....i have put what i have done on my site under the scrapbook tab (there's only a few pages done). Thanks for heads up though and have a great week

Shannon

1/18/2009 8:01:56 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Thanks for reminding me about the challenge. I'm not sure I have anything that will live up to it but I'll look thru them and see what I come up with. I'm doing a year in review book but it is no where near ready. Your books are wonderful, wish one are you submitting?

Hope the weather isn't being too rough on ya. I love all your pictures and the kiddos in the header are nothing short of adorable.

Better run, snaps away, Lisa :)

PS: Kristie has her site up and going again I'm sure she'd love to hear from you.

1/17/2009 10:03:26 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Thanks for popping in my site, in addition to Facebook, to express your kind words regarding Lt. Dan.  I am emotionally drained right now, but doing OK.  Besides "shutterflying" I'm working on stuff for Dan's celebration next Tuesday.  Thanks so much for letting me know about the photobook challenge - I could have easily missed it since I've been so distracted this week.  I'm thinking about what book to submit, but it's hard to pick!!!! Several of mine don't seem to fit any of the categories so that narrows down a bit, but still leaves too many from which to pick.  Indecisive me...........I'll try to decide before the deadline. Thanks again for thinking of me......for all of the above.  Have a top notch weekend.  You are such an awesome representative of Shutterfly.

1/17/2009 8:35:33 PM - 001038348079
Thanks for visiting...Just got a new external hard drive so i've been working on getting it up and running today.  Thanks for the info ref the challenge! I wish I had the new digital scrapbook done i'm working on....I should have it done in about 10 years or so. hahahahaha....Ok, better run....you take care!

1/15/2009 5:57:59 PM - 001038348079
Hey there Shutterfly buddy!!  Making my rounds!  BURRR!!  Looks cold there!!  Hope you are staying warm!! I've been neglecting my site...I've learned how to digital scrap and WOW is it time consuming....I should have the book done in say ummm...5 or so years! hahaha

1/15/2009 2:06:31 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Hope all is well. I love the header pictures, they are sooo cute. Thanks for signing the map and you're right it is fun :)

Joey thanks for all the encouragement you've given me in comments on my photobooks and site. I love it and it makes me want to do more. You are a wonderful representative of this community.

Have a great day!!

Lisa :)

1/15/2009 4:56:55 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Thanks for popping in and let me know you are thinking of us.  It has been a rough week, but we are happy that Lt. Dan is in Heaven with legs and able to eat all the candy he wants (no more diabetes!)  He didn't want any sad services, he wanted a big celebration party so we are all busy planning a celebration worthy of our special friend.  Every nurse and doctor in the hospital thought his photobook was the most amazing thing ever and they all knew all of his "family" as soon as we walked in the door.  I'm so glad we got his book to him before it was too late.  It's such a special keepsake for all of us now.  Love your new profile photo and the new headers of the nieces and nephew - they are all so adorable and such good little posers (you can't even tell that Aunt Joey is whipping them into submission!!! HaHa)  Loved the pics of your Dad's Bday - he always looks like he's having a great time.  Hope you have a great remainder of the week!

Hi Joey, I'm like Danielle, I just wanted to tell ya that your profile picture is wonderful as beautiful as your spirit I would imagine.

Lisa :)

HEY JOEY!!!

That new profile pic of you is Beautiful! Your site is looking amazing as usual! As for how we get all the kids in the pics... Bribes and threats! If you want the present from Grandma you better smile for her picture! It's great that it works at this young age. One day they will wise up and realize that they will get it anyway, then I'm really in trouble! I hope all is well for you, your dad's bday looked like it went off w/o a hitch!

We are getting ready for Grace's surgery on the 19th, I can't wait for it all to be over with. Pete (my husband) is going to get the opp. to play mom for 2 to 6 dayswhile I stay w/ Grace at the hospital.! I wish a video camera could record the time... I'm sure it would be halarious! He has high hopes and Grand ideas of how they will spend the time... then reality will set in...Just get through the day! LOL! God's blessings to you,

Danielle

Hi Joey, Love the new header. I just started changing things up a little. Going to be taking some pictures later today, maybe those will make it on the site too.

Hope all is well and the weather is being good to ya. Sounds like it can get really snowed in up there.

I'd better get going just wanted to say hi and see your new pictures, they're great too.

Snaps away, Lisa :) 

1/9/2009 3:00:08 PM - 001063913611
It's amazing all of the fans you have collected over the last few months. I watch the map and sit there glued waiting to see everyone and where they are from. Just too cool. You've done a very nice job with your site my dear. Your lunch looks like it went very well yesterday. Tell your Dad Happy Birthday!

1/8/2009 4:10:58 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  Greeting and warm wishes are being sent your way.  Love the new header.  You are so good at keeping up with that.  I like all the pictures.  Hope you and your family are all well.  Thanks for stopping by and feel free to come on by anytime.

1/6/2009 6:05:18 PM - 000085599530
Just starting to make the rounds.  Hope all is well with you and you are staying warm. Kids are back in school and now I have some computer time to myself....hee hee.  I love the hot coco shot :).  I should take the Christmas pics off my site but I just dont have the heart yet....

1/6/2009 3:08:24 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, finally getting back into the routine with no holidays. I always get a little bummed after the holidays because I love them so much but that just mnakes it more wonderful when it rolls around again.

I hope the weather is being good to you, seems like you get alot of the blizzards up there. I love snow but I'm not a fan of ice and it iced here yesterday. It doesn't last very long but it caused some serious traffic problems while it's here.

Maybe next week I'll start another photobook that I've been thinking about, we'll see.

I'd better get going, this is my check on sites time :)

Snaps Away, Lisa :)

1/6/2009 5:45:30 AM - 000031826072
Joey, thanks for stopping by and the comments on my adorable niece, Lyndee.  She is a little keeper....gotta love that one!  I love the new numpr.ent photo of the nephew - very cool.  Thanks for letting me know about Lt. Dan's book being featured on the Blog.  I probably would have missed it.  I think I've told you before that I get all wrapped up in looking at photobooks and sometimes forget to check the Blog regularly.....I need to remember to do that more often!  You are always so sweet and I look forward to hearing from you.  I thought your Christmas book was awesome - the pictures were fabulous, as always and I liked the simple, blue background pages - gave the whole thing a very coodinated look!  Keep up the good work.  You are amazing. 

1/3/2009 4:44:45 PM - 001076975951
Joey, about your question on my filmstrip page: QUOTE:  Joey-T - 16 hours ago

Hi there Joey, HAPPY 2009.  I hope you and your family had a wonderful New Years.  May the year ahead hold many special moments filled with peace and happiness.  Thanks for dropping by and I'm glad you like the new photos I added.  I hope someday you  get to go to NYC see the Rockefeller Center tree in person.  And many the head ahead bring lots of new photos to share too.  Take care and I'll be checking out your site when I have a few more moments.  I'm sure you have new pictures and extras.

1/3/2009 4:08:38 AM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, I love your pictures!! That cup of cocoa looks so good. Thanks for checking out my updates, yep I finally get things to work on my computer (seconds before I would have thrown the computer out the window, it started working). I think I put something on every page. Too fun.

I can't thank you enough for welcoming me into this community so wonderfully. You are a wonderful example of a generous spirit and I am very happy to have gotten to know you. I love shutterfly, have for more than 2 years now, the community only makes me love it more.

Looking forward to more snaps, sharing and photobooks in 2009. I'm feeling better, getting into my groove again. Thanks for everything!!

Snaps away,

Love the new headers, Joey - brrrr it sure looks cold there!  Wishing you and yours the warm, wonderful New Years that you deserve.  I am so happy that I've joined your circle of Shutterfly friends - you are warm and caring and so inspirational.  Thanks for being you and many blessings to you and your family!

Thank you yet again for your wonderful comments on the Yoga/Sunset/Beach book, I could not believe that you picked it up so soon, amazing !

Love to see you and your family enjoy the snow, nothing like that in Virginia ! Looks like you had a pretty good Christmas to boot.
Happy New Year Joey.

12/31/2008 3:03:22 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  How are things today.  Just dropping in for a few moments.  I read your kind comments about my Winter/Christmas book.  Yes, the text on page 8 of my book is small so this is what is says:


The Rockefeller Center tree is located at Rockefeller Center, west of Fifth Avenue from 47th through 51st Streets in New York City.

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree dates back to the Depression Era days. The tallest tree displayed at Rockefeller Center came in 1948 and was a Norway Spruce that measured in at 100 feet tall and hailed from Killingworth, Connecticut.

The first tree at Rockefeller Center was placed in 1931. It was a small unadorned tree placed by construction workers at the center of the construction site. Two years later, another tree was placed there, this time with lights. These days, the giant Rockefeller Center tree is laden with over 25,000 Christmas lights.

Humble Beginnings
Today it's a multimillion-dollar extravaganza that attracts thousands of tourists every year, but the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree hasn't always been so glamorous. On Christmas Eve 1931, with the nation mired in the Great Depression, a group of construction workers erected a 20-foot tree on the muddy site of what would become one of the city's greatest architectural and commercial monuments. Despite their grim faces, the men had cause to celebrate.  Two years later, a Rockefeller Center publicist organized the first official tree-lighting ceremony.


The Great Hunt
Nowadays, finding the perfect tree is a daunting task reserved for Rockefeller Center's garden manager, Mr. David Murbach.  But this has not always been the case. In 1956, a polite (or perhaps proud) New Hampshire man presented a 65-foot White Spruce to the state's Governor, who in turn offered it to Rockefeller Center as a gift from New York's neighbor to the north. Ten years later, Canada delivered a 64-foot White spruce in honor of its 100th birthday  the first Rockefeller Christmas Tree raised out of the U.S.  Today, a helicopter is used to scour New England for the perfect specimen.  This year, the winning evergreen is a 72-foot-tall Norway spruce from Hamilton, New Jersey.  It's owner, Bill Varanyak, dubbed it "the miracle tree," telling local reporters that his late mother always predicted it would one day stand at Rockefeller Center. Varanyak's parents had planted the tree in 1931, the very year the tradition began.

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is an annual tradition in New York City's Rockefeller Center, and is lighted in early December or late-November, an event broadcast in recent years on the NBC television network in the United States as well as internationally.  The tree, usually a Norway spruce 75 to 90 feet (23 to 27 m) tall, has been put up every year since 1931.  In 2008, the tree was lighted on December 3 and will remain illuminated until January 9, 2009.

I appreciate the kind and thoughtful words you said.  Have a Happy New Year's Eve.  Talk to you soon.

12/30/2008 5:54:36 PM - 000033709100

Joey,

Love your disco elf link. So fun! And your new header pics are very festive. That hot chocolate looks so tasty I think I'll head into the office kitchen and make one for me.

12/30/2008 4:09:17 PM - 001076975951
GREAT new header Joey.   I love it.  Hope your Christmas was merry and bright.  Love all your pictures.  Just wanted to stop by and wish you and your family a Happy & Healthy 2009!!

May it be full of happy days, special moments to cherish and peace and prosperity.  All the best to you.

12/29/2008 4:15:08 PM - 000085599530

Hello...just checking in.  We had a great Christmas, stayed all day in our pjs and played Wii. I didnt take alot of pictures just during the begining of the unwrapping.  I am glad I took alot of pics before the big day....Ann

12/29/2008 4:14:48 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Thanks for all the well wishes. I hope that Christmas was good to you and yours. We had a wonderful Christmas, traveling here and there. Miss Kyleigh got lots of presents, she had a grand time opening them. I had a ball watching her. I took lots of pictures but my computer is acting up and I can upload til I get that fixed. So I'm working on it. Can't wait to get going on my site and back in the gallery, it gives me such inspiration :)

I did overdo and it ended up costing me two days in bed. I'm way better and up and around again, but I can say I won't be making that mistake twice.

Can hardly believe a new year is upon us, I'll be back again soon to wish you a happy one.

Snaps away until then,

Lisa :)

12/29/2008 12:09:54 AM - 001067807983

Hey Joey!

My daughter shares your niece's Birthday! Just 5 years apart! Infectious smile and beautiful girl!I love your site and thank you for your ever so kind comments on my books. Glad the cold and snow aren't affecting your warm personality... Talk to you soon!

Danielle

12/28/2008 9:30:09 PM - 000082378991
Hey there tootsie pop! Sorry I've been MIA... things have been nuts! And now I'm good. And sane. All is well. Loving the pictures on this home page! Old photos rock! I'll try to catch up via email this week before the new year! :o)

12/26/2008 3:39:58 AM - 001066325224

Joey,

Just stopping by to wish you a Merry Christmas!  Best wishes to you and your family in the upcoming year.  I hope everyone had a great holiday! ~ Diana

12/24/2008 4:26:10 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - love those new header pics of Madeline - she's such a sweetie.  The elf dancing with the nieces and nephews is adorable.  Best wishes to you and all of your fabulous family for the coming new year.  Many blessings, Julie

12/23/2008 10:08:58 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  Your niece, Madeline, is such a doll.  I bet she can't wait for Santa to visit and bring her gifts.  Glad you like my new pictures of the snowy trees.  We only received about 2-3 inches, but we have had freezing temps.  I can't wait for the spring.  I don't like the cold weather.

Have a Merry & Peaceful Christmas.  Tomorrow may be too busy to visit.  Have to get a hair cut, pick up last minute food items and then we are off to visit my mom & brother.  I hope to have some new photos to share by the end of the week or next. 

All the best to you and yours,  Joanne

12/23/2008 4:51:14 PM - 001061427203

Looks like the christmas play was a blast, the pictures are very cute...looks like "Santa" lost a few pounds...LOL. Have a Merry Christmas

Wow, you really have outdone yourself, your site is wonderful. I really need to update mine, just haven't yet. I wish your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. Also I tried to access your site through your Shutterfly Profile pg and it would not let me, there is a colon in front of your J that is keeping it from working, just thought I would let you Know!

12/22/2008 8:07:59 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  Love the heading on your home page.  Hope you are well as is your family.  It's almost time for Santa to visit.  I hope you and yours have a Merry & Bright Christmas.  I know you will have tons of new pictures next week.  Can't wait to see them all.  Keep safe and warm and enjoy.  Peace and best wishes from your Shutterfly pal  Joanne C

12/22/2008 3:46:56 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Well I made it!! I can't really hang out for long just wanted to say hi and thanks for popping in to visit. I'm doing pretty good, slow but sure. Hopefully I'll be up to my old tricks in no time :)

Merry Christmas,

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

12/21/2008 5:57:55 PM - 000085599530
Your site is so much fun...always something fun to find.  Have a Merry Christmas with your family and see you in 2009....Much love to you Joey...Ann

12/19/2008 8:38:40 PM - 001038348079

Joey, Love the new pictures...I wanted to stop by and say Merry Christmas and Happy/Safe New Year!  I hope that you are staying warm!!  Not too bad here in Indiana today...just rain.  I've had a bad wk., Mason fell Tues and hurt his little head...Of course he's fine but I think I still need some nerve meds..hahahaha....Glad he's had his pictured taken with Santa already! Wanted to stop by before it gets even more crazy and say hello!!  Your Shutterfly friend, Connie

12/19/2008 2:00:19 AM - 001066325224

Joey,

I just had to stop by and see your pictures of the snow.  Although I miss the snow, I don't miss the hassle and freezing cold!  It does look beautiful though.  Best wishes to you for a Merry Christmas! ~ Diana

12/17/2008 8:42:46 PM - 001076975951
OH MY!!!  I love the new photos on your header.  So beautiful.  I hope you are keeping warm.  I guess you will be having a white Christmas.  With Christmas a week away and everyone will be running and doing their last minute shopping, baking, etc.  I though I would send my best wishes to you now,  if I am unable to visit later in the week.

12/17/2008 5:58:04 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey - Wow - what a blizzard!  And it IS cold there..I thought it was bad here where I live lately, but you have us beat.  Hope you are staying warm and sipping lots of hot cocoa!  Love the snow pictures and nephew Jack did a great job!  We've had snow and ice here the last few days so I've been doing lots of staying inside after getting home from work.  Best wishes for a Merry Christmas to you and yours!  - Julie

12/16/2008 11:51:08 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey

12/16/2008 5:54:41 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, thought I'd stop by and let you know I probably won't be around for at least a week or so, having surgery tomorrow and I doubt I'll feel like sitting in front of a computer.

So I'm here to wish you a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!! May you and yours be blessed with many blessings!!

Merry Christmas!!

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

 

PS: Thanks again for your kind comments in my new photobook :)

12/16/2008 3:12:31 PM - 000064383827
WOW look at that snow!  I don't miss it one bit.  Try to stay warm as I know how cold those winds on the plains can make it.  I got your comment on my site about my Christmas card.  I created it with photoshop elements and a few freebies.  I really like it.  It's a good thing that I did it when I did because I lost most of my Christmas photo's and PSD files when my computer hard drive crashed...ugh!  I'm so far behind with all my computer issues.  Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas has well.    

12/13/2008 6:37:49 PM - 002038442596
Hi Joey! Thank you sooo much for your very thoughtful comments on my photobooks. I've been a traditional scrapbooker for years but have just entered the world of digital photobooks. I'm hooked!! I can spend hours and hours making page designs! I love your site-what a cool idea to share your work!! I had a great time viewing your photobooks as well!! They're all so beautifully put together and very meaningful!! I especially love the books you did for your parents-what an amazing way to let them know how important they are. I'll be chacking back often to see your next work!!

12/13/2008 4:36:20 PM - 001063913611
Brrrrrr looks like it's below freezing in ND. Will you have snow for Christmas this year? Love you site and that tree that I mentioned is in the ornament...Dah!

12/13/2008 4:22:58 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  Love that new heading on your home page.  BEAUTIFUL!!  Thanks for visiting my site and yes I went to Rockefeller Center for the day.  It was cold that day but had to go.  That tree is not mine, it is outside a building in the city and it was just to pretty not to take a photo.  Glad you stopped by and I'm sure I visit again before Christmas.  Take care.

BTW,  I just love all the Christmas photos on this page.  AWESOME, Joey.  Thanks for sharing.

12/12/2008 12:27:56 AM - 001024320926
Love the new header, you look wonderful with all the kiddos!!

12/11/2008 5:28:22 AM - 000031826072
Hi Joey - Just popping in to say hello.  Love the new Christmas pics and the vintage Christmas pictures of you are too cute.  You were such a little doll (still are!!!!!)  I know what you mean about the time flying by way too fast...I still have so much to do and Christmas parties to attend every single night this week..yikes!!  Fun, Fun, Fun but busy, busy, busy! Keep warm and happy holidays!

12/10/2008 9:01:58 PM - 001063913611
Oooooooops! What happened to the tree? It was there last night!

12/10/2008 8:58:37 PM - 001063913611
Love your site Joey especially the map and countdown. Like everything about it...the background, the header, all the books, and especially your little tree. Thanks for the comment on my Best Uncle Book. Did you notice that it wasn't digi-scrapped and that I used the less is more philosophy. Thanks for being such an inspiration.

12/10/2008 3:18:58 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Love popping in to your site, so much to see and love :) Just love your header pictures!! Can hardly believe Christmas is almost upon us, I still have so much shopping to do. I'm bad about holiday shopping, I always wait til the last minute :(

Ordered my Christmas cards from shutterfly today (late), can't wait to get them out. I'm usually not that late with cards, not sure what my problem is this year.

Better run for now, hope you have a wonderful day,

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

12/9/2008 11:32:57 PM - 001076975951
Hi there Joey,   Love the the Christmas icons and photos you have on your site.   I really like your countdown clock.  Hope you are well and keeping warm.  Take care and I'll visit again real soon.

12/9/2008 3:34:55 PM - 001071401309
Hi Joey,
I was taking a few minutes to check out everyone's site and leave a quick message. I love your Thanksgiving Page, the food looks YUMMY! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and wishing you a GREAT Christmas! I can't believe it is almost here. I am in the process of doing some updates on my page...but I have soooo much going on right now. Check in with me soon...would love to hear from you.
Take Care!
Kristie

12/9/2008 2:51:01 PM - 001087896398

Hey Joey, just popping in to say hello.  I am trying to keep up with everything, and more keeps being added to the To Do list...It looks like you have made so many wonderful updates to your site.  I love the Collage pages you added, they are so awesome.  Happy Holidays!

Kelli

12/8/2008 7:03:41 PM - 001038348079
Had a minute before I started Christmas cards and thought i'd say hello to all my online friends.  Havn't heard from you in awhile so I thought i'd drop in and tell you hello!!  Love your Christmas pics!!!  Your site makes me feel right at home!

12/7/2008 11:04:26 PM - 001099993350
Hi Joey,
Looks like you are READY for the Christmas holidays, love the HOHOHO with your photograph. All my nieces and nephews are in England and normally I would see them as I would return and stay with my sister for Christmas. I have 3 daughters, but all grown up now and so an empty nest (see me smile !) but I will see them towards the end of the month and celebrate Christmas together as they live in different parts of the US; we will converge at my eldest daughter's house in NC. Hope you and yours have a great holiday too !
Barry

12/6/2008 9:45:46 PM - 001066325224

Joey,  just stopping by to check out all of the new things you added recently.  I noticed your temperature - yikes only 7 degrees!  As always, I enjoy visitng your site.  Take care and keep in touch ~ Diana

12/6/2008 12:43:49 AM - 000031826072
Hola Joey!  Look at that festive new header!  Love it.  The Thanksgiving collage is just cruel...made me hungry and I'm trying to lose a few pounds..I know silly me - not exactly the right time of year! But really - it looks fantastic.  Thanks for your warm comments on my latest book about my Mom.  It was worth it - I know she will love it but I'm glad I'm done - this one was definitely a LABOR of love. I now have one more to go before Christmas - putting together a book for our friend Lt. Dan - he'll be so excited. I can't believe how quickly Christmas is approaching - I still have so much left to do.  Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season.  -Julie

12/5/2008 9:04:15 PM - 001076975951
Hi There Joey:  Love your new header.    So pretty.

How are things going for you?  Hope all is well.  Love all the Christmas extras and photos you have.  Lot's of joy found on your site.  I'll have to check you Thanksgiving page. 


Have a nice weekend and of course keep warm and cozy.      


By the way here is the link to where i found the Christmas tree on my home page:

Your site is so festive Joey, I'm loving it!

12/5/2008 5:32:41 PM - 000085599530
I just love the old time Christmas photos.  I really need to take the time to scan in my old pictures from my childhood.  I just need a few more hours in my day!

12/5/2008 3:19:39 PM - 001024320926

Joey I saw the Thanksgiving page yesterday too but forgot to mention it. I thought of it later and then you mentioned this morning. I loved it!! Very festive and it made me just a little hungry, turkey is my favorite, I will eat that anytime of year. I love your site and your very positive comments that you generiously give to everyone. You are very kind. Thanks so much for allowing me to visit your wonderful corner of the web :)

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

Hi Joey!

Sorry I've been out of touch. So, Nov. stated out exciting we were expecting baby # 8.... Then when I was 10 weeks along we began to miscarry. That was a first for me. I am in good spirits now Thanks be to God! My family took a much needed trip to CA. for thanksgiving! SOOO much fun. It was warm and sunny 70's and 80's. PERFECT! We returned late Sun. night... glad to be home and we have the long awaited urology appt. for my daughter tomorrow! We  preparing for 3 of my girls birthdays this month{12th, 19th, &24th}, a Christmas Parade on Sat., and a Christmas pagant on Sun... oh yeah and Christmas! Heaven help us! It is always great fun though! Hpoe you are doing as well as your site looks! AMAZING! Of course!

God's Blessings,

Danielle

Hi Joey!  Hope you had a fab Thanksgiving!  Yes, I've been a scanning fool lately.....I'm finally ready to order my Mom's Christmas book tomorrow.  No more scanning for awhile - woohoo! I haven't even started gearing up for Christmas yet...that's next!  Love your new profile pic with the Santa hat - too cute!  Ho Ho ho!  Happy Holidays and happy week after!

 

12/1/2008 6:32:26 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, How was your Thanksgiving? Hope it was wonderful, action packed with good stuff. My Thanksgiving was quiet and I am happy to say I wasn't called in to work, so that made me even happier. Took Kyleigh to see Santa at Bass Pro Shop, it was sooo fun. She refused to smile, but she's still cute in her picture. We did everything we could think of to get her to smile but she wasn't having anything to do with it. Smiled all the way home though, that's the way it goes :)

Hope all is well,

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

11/26/2008 8:01:02 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,  Just want to wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving.  Have a fun day and safe day.  I hope you are doing well.  Still having trouble adding new pictures on my site.   URGH!!!!!   I hope it's just a temporary problem.   I'll try to visit again over the weekend.

11/26/2008 1:19:54 PM - 001071401309

Hi Joey, what a complete oversight on my part. I went into setting and there it was. Last night I must have been tired I couldn't find my head on my shoulders. :)

Have a great day,

Snaps away,

11/26/2008 3:11:56 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Popping in to wish you and yours the best Thanksgiving EVER (you little gobbler you.)  I've been so busy that I haven't been on Shutterfly as much as usual lately and when I am, I'm working on my Mom's Christmas book....still not done - nothing like cutting it close!  Looks like it cold up your way - it's chilly here too but not like Fargo!  Take care and have a wonderful holiday!  -Julie

11/26/2008 2:48:01 AM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, I just realized my site doesn't have the little thing at the top asking if they want to be a member. How do I get that on there? I can't figure it out :(

Of course I would love for you to be a member of my site, email me at ellesnaps@yahoo.com and I'll add you!!

Lisa :)

11/26/2008 2:01:36 AM - 001066325224

Joey,

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...you've made so many great changes.  It's always so much fun to see what you come up with next.  Love the header pics, so sweet...Have a great Thanksgiving!  ~ Diana

11/25/2008 11:31:12 PM - 001024320926

Snaps away,

11/25/2008 11:05:47 PM - 001099993350
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Joey, looks like it is getting cold in ND, not too bad here in VA, so far. I am originally from England and even though I have been in the US for many years, I still am not used to the whole idea of Thanksgiving, except the eating of course !

11/24/2008 1:14:06 PM - 000082378991
Look at all your fun stuff on your site! You've been busy since I visited last. LOVE LOVE LOVE the header xmas pictures. Makes me want to go digging! One of these days! Ok, off to find the journal page! ;o)

11/23/2008 3:22:44 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey:  How was your weekend?  Are you experiencing any cold weather in your neck of the woods?   It is cold here in the 5 boroughs and I need some hot cocoa, a.s.a.p.   Didn't get to snap any pictures this weekend and I sad about that.  Anyway, just wanted to say Hello....got to get ready for church.   I'll see you soon.  Take care and have a good day.

11/22/2008 1:34:30 AM - 000031826072
The new Baby Joey header is wonderful!!!!!!!  So cute.  Christmas memories are so special.  I am struggling to finish up Mom's Christmas book and now my friend, Chris wants me to do a Christmas book for her husband.......yikes......so much to do!!!!!!! Hope things are going well for you and yours and that your weekend is the best!

11/20/2008 7:32:28 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Thanks for your comments on my photobooks and the encouragement for commenting on other books. Your comments was one of the reasons I started commenting on other books, I wanted other people to feel as welcome as I did. Thanks for the inspiration!!

Hi Joey,
Thanks for the sweet comment. Sorry about all the trouble you have been having. I am new to this and it is taking me a while to figure it all out. I love your site and the pictures you have on there are so much fun!
I hope you will come back and visit often. I will be adding a lot more new stuff all the time.
Take Care!

11/18/2008 7:35:57 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, only have a second, sorry, the first time I went to Kristi's site I couldn't find a place to do then I asked to be a member and all of a sudden I see the add comment spot. So I did it. I hope you can get it to work, she really wants to hear from us :) I may go and leave a comment that people are having trouble finding a way to leave a comment. Gotta run lunch is over, dang it!

Snaps away,

11/18/2008 4:25:26 PM - 001076975951
Hi there Joey,  How is everything going?  Did you have a nice weekend?  I had a quiet weekend and didn't take any new photos.  I am itching to take new snapshots.  Maybe this weekend.

I'm glad my photos make you feel like you too have traveled to these places.  My next big adventure is next September.  Another cruise....I can't wait.   So in the meantime, I'll have to share my nearby travel adventures.  Just wish I had something planned.  And with the winter coming who knows where I'll walk, drive or mass transportation to.

P.S.  Joey, thanks for commenting on my photo slideview page and glad you liked it.  I thought it looked neat and clean and all in one place to share.  I looked forward to viewing yours very soon. 

11/17/2008 7:09:15 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, thanks for stopping in at my site, love having you over. I can't wait to hear about more of your favorite movies. I use Netflix as well.

I got sick last Wednesday afternoon and am still struggling some, may end up at the doctors office. No fun.

Until nex time,

Snaps away,

Lisa :)

11/17/2008 2:07:43 PM - 001071401309
I just found your site from another member's site and I have to say, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the museum picture. Totally awesome! Great site. If you get a chance come and visit mine at www.sunshinephotos1971.shutterfly.com...Would love for you to leave a comment!  Have a great day!
Kristie

11/15/2008 11:07:03 PM - 001038348079
Thanks for checking out my photo book and my site!  Please stop by anytime!  I'm having a lot of fun taking pictures (almost as fun as locking up bad guys/girls...hahahaha)  Thanks for inviting me to your site...I LOVE it!!!  I especially love the museum picture!! 

11/14/2008 7:30:40 PM - 000085599530
I had a friend thing that the photograph of Randy in one of his shows was really hanging in a museum.  So cool!

11/14/2008 4:21:05 PM - 001087896398
LOVE the new layout of your site.  You have really added some cool stuff.  I am so inspired by the Museum picture, and am wondering if this could be blown up to poster size and ordered from Shutterfly.  This would make an awesome print on the wall.  Question, do you know the folks on the bench or are those part of the dumper program?  I guess I will have to check this out!

11/14/2008 4:03:30 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, Just checking in and hope all is well. Love all your pictures as always, you're an inspiration :)

Snaps away,

11/12/2008 8:49:12 PM - 001061427203

thanks for stopping by last night and checking out my newest additions. I love all the "toys" out there that help enhance pictures...it truely is so much fun to do. I will have to add the sites I have been using, I know Julie liked the Magazine site I found and has been using that, so i think others might really like the slide site as well. Thanks for the great comments and I will have to stop by later (after work) to view your site a little more... I need to catch up on viewing some of your books.

 

ps...awesome site you have, i just love visiting

11/12/2008 4:42:47 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - I found your two new amazing books and viewed them today........outstanding!!!!!  Just love 'em both.  Your talent is just endless.  Yes, the dumpr.net stuff is addicting - I try not to go overboard, but as you can tell - i can't seem to help myself! But I guess there is no reason we can't have our fun, right?  Anyway, I salute your fabulous results with the big scanning project - just awesome.  Hope you are having a wonderful week!

11/11/2008 11:46:25 PM - 002035795303

Hi Joey,

I just wanted to stop in and say Hi!  I also wanted to let you know that I really enjoy your site everytime that I look at it. Always new stuff.   I also wanted to ask you if you could help me create a sign in book and a map like yours.  Love the thought of knowing where people come from

11/11/2008 7:13:27 PM - 001076975951
Greetings Joey:  I see you have some new additions...I love the flowers in a circle.  It cool!

I noticed your new comment about leaving thoughtful comments on photo books.  I feel the members work hard on these books and if I feel an emotion while viewing these books I must reply and let my fellow Shutterfly members know what a great job they have done, especially when the photos are beautiful and the subject matter touches my heart.  I know I love reading the comments left on my projects and only want to return the gesture to others.  It's always nice "hearing" when you have done a wonderful job on your website or photo books.

11/11/2008 4:34:52 PM - 001061427203

wow just awesome, I love your flower picture you have in the ball from the dumpr site, that is pretty cool! Love your header picture so simply yet so creative and eye catching. Oh, I was also wondering if it was ok if I added a link to your site from mine so others can also view your amazing work

Hi Joey, I see you've been dumpr playing again...irresistible!  I love the new circle flower picture!  Thanks for recognizing my efforts to get around the Gallery and make lots of comments - I do try...I know how encouraged I am by others comments and want to inspire others in the same way - there is so much talent in the Gallery!  You are the Queen of Nice Comments yourself and have been such an inspiration to me in in so many ways - I really appreciate it!  I've been scanning away again...trying to get a book done for my Mom for Christmas.  How is your scanning project coming along?

 

11/10/2008 1:08:08 AM - 001024320926
Joey, I love what you're doing to the place. The museum picture is really cool.

11/9/2008 11:16:07 PM - 001066325224
Joey, thanks for stopping by the Terrapin Times and signing in the Guest Book.  I loved your idea, hope you don't mind that I used it on my site too!  You are always an inspiration!

11/9/2008 4:59:51 AM - 002035795303
Joey...Thanks so much for the lovely comments about my book.  You were right Grandma was full of spunk (or as she would say ---- and vinegar) I do believe that she would have liked the book, not so sure about the posting of it.  That was one of the great things about Grandma, she would let you know what she thought and then we moved on.  Letting you do what was right for you and never judging you for it.  Sorry, I am babbling about her.  I took a look at most of your books and they are beautifull.  You can certianly see the love that you poured into them.  I am so new to this whole thing but am really enjoying it. Well should go to bed now   Vicky

11/8/2008 5:54:57 PM - 000085599530

Your Halloween pics of the kids are great.  Do some copings here and there and you will have a fantastic book!  Thanks for stopping by my site too....:)

11/7/2008 6:08:20 PM - 000031826072
Hi there Joey, love the new header - it's so "you." I am so glad that you fianlly checked out the museum dumpr site so we could all ooh and aah over it and jump on the train!  I don't know where you find the time, but I'm glad you do!  The Halloween pics of the kids are so cute.  Hope you have a fab weekend!

11/7/2008 5:11:21 PM - 000085599530
Your home page is so high tech!  You are breaking boundries on Shutterfly mysite. 

11/7/2008 3:36:40 PM - 001061427203

I noticed you were able to get the where are you from map. Sorry, I did not immediatly reply, I had to go out of town for a few days and was just able to find the computer at the Hotel. When I return home I will definitely come back to sign your guest book.

Shannon

11/7/2008 3:28:17 PM - 001076975951
Happy Friday to you Joey,  Yes I just read your new comment on my site.

Oh Joey, I just figured it out!!!!   Thanks for your help.  I know I can always depend on you.  By the way have a wonderful weekend.


 

11/7/2008 2:30:45 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey;  I love your new additions to your site.  Nice new header.  How did you do the Museum Section.  I really like it and would love to add one to my site.  Is is easy to do?  When it comes to computers, I'm a dummy.    

11/6/2008 10:55:52 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey - I signed your guestbook and used your musuem picture idea - so cool!  Hope you get a pic of Bambu Snow White costume so I can see it! 

11/6/2008 12:05:00 PM - 001043414385
I love the Where are You from, now I know where some of you guys are from, I always hated to ask but now since people volunteered the info I know, lol, love the site, you are good girl!

11/5/2008 9:28:46 PM - 000085599530
How fun is the where are you from addition....LOVe It

11/5/2008 6:55:08 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey!  Great to hear from you, as always.  I bet Bambu was too cute as Snow White.  Zoe dressed up like a witch - I don't have the pictures uploaded yet - but will soon.  She looks very unhappy (she was - she really hates it when we put anything on her head!)  I thought the guest map thing was too cool, too, that's why I borrowed it from Shannon's site.  I like what you've done to your place.  Great idea to put some of the single frame pics on a different page.  Keep up all your great inspiration!

11/5/2008 3:40:01 PM - 001076975951
Good morning Joey:  Thanks for dropping by and I'm glad you liked the new photo of the tree.  That tree is located in  the yard of my parish church.  My church is over 150 years old and that tree is in the yard when the priests reside.  The area is just beautiful it is called Richmond Town.

By the way, just saw that you added a new comment on my site.  I too have a map you are welcome to sign.  It is on my last page with my photo books.  I'll be seeing you soon and have a great day!!

11/4/2008 2:54:26 PM - 001061427203

Hello, I recently started to really update my page and was browsing through others to see what they have been doing. I found your site through Julie's "sites to see" tab. Your family is so adorable and I love the fall leave pictures! Hope you stop by and check what I have been up to and sign the guestbook @ zeusziggy.shutterfly.com. Oh, and I love the collage page...just awesome.

10/26/2008 3:36:26 AM - 001087896398

Hey Joey, gosh after looking at so many of the share sites, mine needs some love! I love the fall leaves photographs you have up top.  Glad to see you out in the Gallery tonight.  I think I kept just missing you in some of the books, between you and Lisa : )

Hope the rest of your weekend is good, and hope you feel better soon.

10/26/2008 2:57:57 AM - 000031826072
Hi Joey - just a quick pop in to say hello and thanks for the congrats and stopping by my site to say hi.  It's always great to see your smiling face and comments!  I can't wait to see how you are going to "pump up your site...." - sure it will be even more wonderful.  Hope you have having a marvelous weekend.  Take care.

Hi Joey:  Hope all is well.  I see that you stopped by my site to see my new additions.  I am happy that you liked the dedication to my dad.

 As for the collage page yes those are my two daughters.  To add that page I went to the menu control and added the collage page with some recent photos. 

Hope you liked that page.  It is always a pleasure when you drop by and share your comments.  I'll be checking in again during the week.  Have a great weekend.

10/23/2008 5:00:22 PM - 000031826072

10/22/2008 6:06:28 PM - 001036346682

Great pictures Joey!  Love the little girl with the two front teeth missing!

Shame on me for not visiting lately! You have a TON of new pics since my last visit! awesome! LOVE the headers... cute and fun! And all the leafy pics. Now I have to go check out all the flowers!

10/21/2008 6:26:13 PM - 001067807983
I LOVE these pics! Our leaves have turned colors but haven't fallen yet. I especially love the ones where everyone is trowing leaves such fun shots! Great header too!  Your family is so lucky to have you!

10/21/2008 5:51:55 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Love the new heading on your home page.  Truly beautiful.  Hope all is well.  Just love the autumn pictures and many thanks for adding them.

Hi Joey! I love the new photos of you in the leaves, what a fun time that must have been! Thanks again for all your effort, inspiration, and thoughtfulness for all us Gurus, you're awesome! 

10/20/2008 7:35:18 PM - 000085599530
Hello. I see you have been giving your site a fall make over and so have I.  I wish we had huge piles of leaves to jump in but saddly there are no large trees in our neighborhood.  Love the new photos! 

10/17/2008 3:24:56 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey!  How have you been?  I stopped by to say Hi since it had been awhile.  Thanks for your usual sweet comments on my latest book - it was so fun to try a different style.  The next new thing I want to try is borrowing from YOU...more nature pictures!  I just forget to go outside and start snapping!  This is the time of year to do it (if I could just find the time.)  Have a great Friday!

10/16/2008 9:22:40 PM - 001024320926

Hi Joey, just checking around sites today. Still love your header pictures, especially with the pumpkins. Too cute. Have a great day.

Lisa :)

10/14/2008 9:21:20 PM - 001099993350

Hi Joey,

Many thanks for checking in on my site. Have not done too much recently as I have been out of town and very busy at work. I love to see how you have incorporated all parts of your life on the site, and your books, well, very impressive !

Hey Joey!  Just checking out what you are up to now!  Love the older pictures~Kim

10/12/2008 3:05:50 PM - 001076975951
Hi Joey,   Hope all is well with you and your family.  I noticed you have 2 new books and I will need to check them out.  Yes, I read your comment on my site and we do seem to both love the nature/flower and travel books.  The nature books are so calming and peaceful.  Thanks for dropping by and leaving a message.  Till next time have a good day.

LOVE the far right shot with the pumpkins.  Your header is trey cool.

 

10/11/2008 4:12:01 PM - 001067807983
YEAH!!! You did it! I finally figured out that page... I didn't even know what a wigget was. But it is a sucess! Thanks for all your help. Bye, D

10/10/2008 12:11:13 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey, Popping in to touch base!  Thanks for the compliment on the new profile pic - I'm kind of like you are with yourself, tho, I don't really like ANY pictures of myself these days, but this one seemed to be the least of the evils lately!  Thanks also for checking out my sister's book.  Whew - it was a BIG scanning job - but at least it's done!  The only problem is now my Mom is expecting a book next and that one will be another big scanning project.  Sigh!  Oh well.  How are you coming on your big project?  Love the new headers pics - that groovy wallpaper is too much - reminds me of some we used to have - that's scary girl cuz you are younger than me!!!  It's so awesome that you are helping Danielle with all the same stuff you helped me with....you ARE the best!  Happy Thursday!

10/9/2008 7:03:07 PM - 001067807983

Hey Joey!

So far so good! Thanks for the help! I did it all and the only question left is how do you make them BIG! Thank you for always being ready to lend a hand! Your the Best!

Danielle

10/9/2008 5:25:47 PM - 000033709100

Hi Joey,

Just stopping in to say hi. Love the images of you and your sister tubing. You sure know how to have fun!

 

And as always, thank you for being such an AWESOME Gallery Guru! You are one of the most supportive people I know and it makes a huge difference to Gallery, the Gurus, and to me.

10/9/2008 5:40:32 AM - 001067807983
OK Joey I've got a tech. question for you. How did you get your books so large on yourphotobook tab? I tried to copy your idea... it just keeps falling apart! Also I really like how you don't have the members list hanging around. How do you keep the members but not show the section? Remember that immitation is the greatest form af flattery S/p? (I'm lost without spell check... and I'm tp lazy to run downstairs at this late hour.) Anyhow if you don't mind sharing your secrets... Thanks, Danielle

10/5/2008 3:25:56 AM - 001087896398

Joey, I think if you right click on the Where inthe World, you can get the code, and add as a widgit.  I am still trying to see if I can find, but I am having issues (I know it is me because everyone else can make the computer work).

Have a great weekend!

 

10/5/2008 12:13:07 AM - 001043414385
Just stopping by, love the old photos, also love all the changes you have made. Great site!

10/3/2008 5:03:34 AM - 001067807983
Joey, Great header. I have not braved using a scanner... I think I have to buy one first... maybe it's built into my printer. I adore the whole concept of using the vintage pics! Where do you find the time? Your amazing! Talk to ya'! Danielle

10/2/2008 3:07:08 AM - 001011547222

Oh goodness, you put me to shame, Joey! Your header photos are great!! I love the vintage pics and boy you guys had light hair as kids. Cute as can be.

And your flower photos are so clear, I feel as if I can touch and smell them!!

It's really awesome what you've done with the place.

10/2/2008 3:02:28 AM - 000085599530

Headers are great!  I just love the pumkin carving one.  It looks like my 3 kids.  Hey get that groovy wall paper!  I want background designs like that!  Ann :)

10/2/2008 12:59:30 AM - 001076975951
Love the new header and I love old photos from days gone by.  I just enjoy visiting your site and sharing comments.  

10/1/2008 11:19:16 PM - 001087896398

I love your header.  I am going to look for the code for the city thingy...it is added on site as a widgit.

 

Thanks so much for asking about my friend, Dad, etc.  Just another day in life!  Boy that commercial about life coming at you fast is right.  I guess that's why I can't take enough pics.

 

Joey, I really love your flower photographs, are those your flowers?  Cause, I have a brown thumb and these are beautiful.  You really did a fantastic job capturing their beauty.

10/1/2008 6:17:35 PM - 000033709100

Joey,

Your new header pics are so cute! Are those your parents in the couple shot? Is that your class?

9/29/2008 5:49:30 PM - 001065510860
Hi Joey!! Thanks for the great comments about my page and my boyfriend and I. And yes we are very much in love :) As far as wedding plans go...lol...distant future. But definitely there! Yea I'm sure when that happens that will probably be one of Mom's biggest projects lol. I love your pics of the flowers! I do those too lol Have a good day!

9/28/2008 1:54:26 AM - 001024320926
Hi Joey, Thanks for checking out my site, it was definitely influenced by you and others. I am having so much fun with it. I just added the What's this???? page the other day. I already have a couple snakes to add on Monday (yikes!). I love your photobooks and your site, you have become one of my favs to check routinely, thanks for all the inspiration. Your flowers are sooo pretty, very bright and lively. Love that! You and your sister on the tube looks like hilarious fun :)

9/28/2008 12:07:14 AM - 001076975951
Hi Joey, I hope you and your family are well.   I read your latest comment on my site.  Yes I must thank my dear hubby because he has made my travel dreams and experiences come true.  God willing and with His guidance we will be traveling next September to Europe again, on a cruise.  My favorite destination.  I can't wait 365 more days.  


Enjoy your weekend too and have fun.

9/27/2008 11:23:16 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey!  Wow - you are changing things up regularly!  Good for you.  Love the fall leaves - very festive.  Yes, I gave hubby his birthday book and he absoloutely loved it - has been carting it around everywhere showing it off. When are you posting Bambu's book?  Can't wait to see it!  I'm needing to do a lot of scanning for my sister's book, but I'm having trouble getting into it, too! I think I have just done too many books too quickly lately...feeling the need for a tiny breather! Now I'm off for dinner with the family...have a FABULOUS weekend! 

9/27/2008 12:56:39 AM - 000085599530
Look who is ready for fall! Your header photos are super.  I love seeing the changing of the leaves...the few trees in California that do change.  This is the time of the year I miss living back east!  Great photos Miss J!

9/26/2008 9:18:54 PM - 001099993350
Fabulous site Joey, a true Shutterfly Guru !

9/26/2008 7:30:16 PM - 000033709100
Love the new header pics, Joey. Lovely contrast between the green grass and gold/rust leaves.

9/26/2008 5:33:03 AM - 001067807983

Hi Joey!

Love the new header... I love the Fall.. Crisp air, and we can bake without cranking the a/c. I think it is my favorite time of the year. Well until the first snow, I like that too. Now that I think of it Spring is awful pretty after winter ends... and who doesn't love the water in the summer? I guess every season has something going for it!

Thanks for your kind words on my mom's bday book. I just finished one for  great grandma' birthday. I'm trying to figure out how to add it to the site... it is under my husbands profile PeteF4 

Hope all is great on your end. Quick ? I notice you have vegas' weather on your site, do you have fam there? We used to live there. Fun... well for our visitors, somehow we always got to babysit. I still don't know what any of the casinos look like on the inside... The lights sure are pretty though!

9/24/2008 1:14:09 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - I just discovered that I'm a featured member as of a few minutes ago - thanks for noticing so quickly.  Wow!  How awesome!  Thanks so much for all your support and inspiration. 

9/23/2008 6:04:01 PM - 001036346682
I love the tubing picture Joey!  Wish I was there to witness it~Kim

9/23/2008 2:36:30 AM - 001046757290
 Thanks for all the wonderful comments on my books - I LOVE making them. Shutterfly has done amazing things for my photography. Where do you live? Also - what is your new camera.

9/22/2008 4:17:42 AM - 000031826072
Yes, I got Brandon's book yesterday just in time to give to him tomorrow for his birthday!  Woohoo!  Just checked out your summer memories book - amazing!  I just love it.  So many fun pictures in this one that made me crack up!  It's kind of scary that I look at your books now and know everyone by name!  You might have to invite me to the next family reunion...haha! Have an outstanding week and I'll talk to you soon!

9/22/2008 2:39:31 AM - 000031826072
Hi Joey!  Oh my gosh, LOVE the picture of you and your sister tubing - the expression on your face is priceless.  The close up of your niece is beautiful! Thanks for checking out my birthday/tribute book for Chris and your good wishes for her to remain cancer-free are much appreciated!  Have a great week!

9/21/2008 3:49:35 PM - 001076975951
Joey, Thank you for the recent comment regarding my site.  Yes I have made just a few changes here and there.  I check out your site a few times every week and am always glad to see your new additions and updates.  Keep up the great work. 

9/19/2008 12:06:15 AM - 000033709100

Hi Joey,

Just thought I'd stop by. Love that puppy and the pretty flowers! And am very impressed that it's 81 degrees out in Fargo. We're expreriencing cold (well, cold to me) mornings now. What a shock!

9/18/2008 8:19:49 PM - 001036346682
Hey Joey!  Love the pictures; especially, the bird sitting on the bird feeder.  Are the flowers from your garden!  Hope to see you soon~Kim

9/17/2008 5:54:05 AM - 001067807983

Hi Joey! I just wanted to pop by and say hello. Your page and all of the beautiful flowers put a huge smile on my face! I wish I had a green thumb... but I seem to grow kids just fine! We all have to count our blessings where we have them! I am so excited, we were given a freebie photo book, must take more pictures! Hope you are well and healthy!

Danielle

9/16/2008 8:51:00 PM - 000085599530

Just stopping by for a peek. I just love the flowers.  Flower are wonderful and always a joy to see. They make a grand splash on your page!

9/16/2008 5:42:21 PM - 000031826072
Joey - Thanks for all your heartwarming comments on my two new books - you always make me feel so good!  I'm giving Stacey her Bday book tomorrow night at dinner - can't wait.  She helped me create Chris' book (which I haven't posted yet), so I know she will be so thrilled that she got her own version, too! I'm still waiting for the printed copy of hubby's book - can't wait to see his reaction! Didn't you just love the BIG hair on his prom dates?  Reminded me of some of your Kim/Joey big hair pics in Kim's book!  Take care - can't wait to see your next production!

9/15/2008 1:13:16 PM - 002024999357

my turn to congratulate and give you encouragement. love the flower and cloud pix, also your scrapbook type of books for friends and family are very inspiring, i just wouldn't know where to begin. i will just keep this short and say great job and keep it up.

I love the addition of the two new albums with the flowers.  Just perfect and each and everyone would make a perfect gift or postcard.  Thanks for the TLC and the additions to your shared site.  Keep up the great work.

9/11/2008 5:20:22 PM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - the TLC is paying off - your site is looking fabulous!  Love the new flower pictures - so colorful and bright!  I dropped in to say hi and let you know that I posted Brandon's Bday book and the first friend/birthday Tribute book that we talked about..just received the Tribute book in the mail and the printed copy is just wonderful....Shutterfly does such a great job with their quality!

Hi Joanna - just checking in to say hi...Love your bright flower pictures & your header is awesome.  I can't believe it is already fall.

Just read your newest comments on my books.  I am glad you enjoyed my books and it is fine to post a link and share my book. 

9/9/2008 10:41:23 PM - 000033709100

The little puppy in the header is absolutely adorable.

9/9/2008 2:28:51 PM - 001076975951
Hi and I just wanted to say first of all your site is beautifully done.  A treat to visit and view your photos and project.  I also want to say "Thank you" for your lovely comments on my Snug Harbor book I recently made.  I was inspired my the many other gallery members who posted their breathtaking nature books.  I am glad you liked it and your comments are also so uplifting and sweet.  Keep up the good work on your site.

9/8/2008 5:38:04 PM - 000031826072
Joey - Looks like you got around to a little TLC on your site this weekend - looks fantastic!  Love the pic of the new puppy - so cute!  Can't wait to see the book.

9/8/2008 3:36:40 PM - 001076975951
Joanna, I received your comment asking to post one of my books.  That would be fine, but  may I ask which one.  I'll be checking your site from time to time to see all your new photos.  It's Shutterfly just wonderful?

9/7/2008 5:04:42 PM - 001076975951
Thanks for the beautiful photos you have shared with us.  I love this new feature Shutterfly has offered us.  I just want to say Hello and I will check your site from time to time to view new additions.   I look forward to your future photo books.  I know they will be a pleasure and treat to view.  Keep up the good work.

9/4/2008 2:39:47 PM - 000031826072
Joey - Thanks for checking out my two latest books and your positive comments. I have been rolling them out lately, as you said - actually I have two more ready to go that I can't post yet - both are surprises for my two best friends approaching birthdays (the big 40 and the big 45!)  Can't wait to see that puppy book!

8/29/2008 11:14:01 PM - 000085599530
I am going to soon. I want to try to redo afew of the pictures.  I need to putter abit more and until it feels right.  Thank you for your nice thought about how it is coming so far.. :)

8/29/2008 2:06:45 AM - 000085599530

Hey there Joey,

Thanks for the kind words on my wedding photos. Finally got them all scanned in and now I am trying to make an album.  There are so many beautiful professional shots in some of the wedding books in Gallery, I wished I could have had just one photo liked those. But for friends and family taking all the pictures they could that day we ended up with some nice ones.  Now I am working my Shutterfly magic and see if I can get a professional look from a stack of 4 x 7s snap shots.  Take a look, I posted it on my site and let me know what you think. .. Ann

8/28/2008 6:55:47 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey, I'm popping in to say hello and thanks for the comments on my Zoe book. I hope you get some pictures of your brother and sister-in-law's shih tzu so that you can make a book.  Shih tzus are so cute.  Zoe is a little princess that likes to pretend that she's tough too - she likes to go over to the neighbors house where they have a large dog behind an iron fence and yip at him because she knows he can't get to her!  It's pretty funny. You're very welcome on my comments on all of your books - they are well deserved!

8/23/2008 12:42:45 AM - 000082378991
hi! finally popping back over. lots of updates since i checked last! awesome header pic and all your books all posted... i love that cover of tina's bday book. hopefully i can catch up with everybody and give the gallery some much needed love. the site is looking great and i laughed at your post about abby and the top. tooooooo funny! ;o)

8/19/2008 9:34:36 PM - 000085599530
Hey Jo...thanks for stopping by my site.  Hey make sure you ad something to my Guru page. Anything would be great :)! ....Ann

8/19/2008 6:23:21 AM - 001067807983

You'll have to get a copy of that pic. you talk about (tubing)... Looks like a Blast! I am so happy to have you as a member on my site. Thank you for showing intrest. I need to take more pics. The batteries to my camera have seemed to magically grown legs and if I'm not mistaken they have jumped into a once silenced (for good reason... annoying!) hokey pokey Elmo! It must have been the battery fairy... or my son.. but a fairy is definatly more likely!

 We start the school year on the 25th of Aug. this year. It is much more simple to say everyone is back at school... and so are you! I'm so glad to get back into a routine... nope thats a lie... I would have to have had a routine... so I guess I should say, I look foreward to having a routine. My resolve on that issue may change next week though! Talk to you later! Danielle 

8/19/2008 4:21:15 AM - 000031826072
Hey Joey - Yes, I did get your email about embedding books and yes, I just finished adding all my books to my shared site...easy as pie - just like you said it was...woohoo!  And then I pop over to check out your site and Kelli's - wow - you two are impossible to keep up with - awesome new header - I can relate - that's about all we've been doing here all summer...tubing, tubing and more tubing - such great fun.  Your niece and nephew look like they are having a blast.  And you were out there riding too??? You go!  Thanks, as always for your help and encouragement!

8/19/2008 1:54:09 AM - 000085599530
Killer header photo....  Looks like alot of fun....:)

8/18/2008 11:36:24 PM - 000068987971
Hi Joey,

  You commented on my photobook today at Shutterfly (The Bruce) 

I actually used Katie Pertiet's "Create A Book" template from Designer Digitals (I forgot to credit it..oops! :) )

Thanks for your praise, it was fun to do and I liked it so much better than another book I made through another photo site here in Canada.  I look forward to printing it to see it in a book format!

Christine

Love the addition of the Quote Garden link!  And BIG thank you for your kind comments on my Grandparent's Day book.  Of course I caved and showed my mom the on-line version, but my aunt called and hinted, soooo, she cried and we agreed to keep a secret from my Dad.

 

As always a comment from Joey is such a treasure.  Thank you! 

8/16/2008 6:02:12 AM - 001067807983

Hey Joey!

So please tell me, how is it you can site hop. I can't seem to figure out how this works. Any how, THank you for your gracious comments! Hopefully, someday I can make more books...For some odd reason I can't seem to find the time... hmmm wonder what it could be? Your works are very inspirational! Talk to you later! Danielle

8/14/2008 9:51:35 PM - 001012451430

HI Joey!  Thank you for inviting me to your great web site!  I'm a teacher, so I don't know how much time I will be able to devote to this.  Although, I seem to be addicted to it lately!!!!  Thanks again!

Michelle  :)

8/13/2008 5:17:51 PM - 000085599530

You are so sweet.  Thanks for the nice comments on the new books.  Alyssa was so excited to see someone looked at her book. She is very proud of it. :) Make sure you stop by my site and add something to the Guru page I added for us.

8/13/2008 4:35:48 PM - 001057472716
Joey, lovely site!!! Thank you for inviting me to view it. Question: how did you add members? Thanks...

8/11/2008 6:49:39 AM - 000068669971
I am just hopping sites, I have so much to catch up on.  I love the filmstrip.  I am off to have a look at the rest of the sites.  As soon as I can juggle all the new changes, I will be stopping back more frequently.  LOL  Looks great. 

8/11/2008 12:22:24 AM - 000064383827

Joey,

  Thank you for comments on my site.  It was a lot of work to get it going again put I worked this weekend so I had a little extra time to put it back together.  I did truly enjoy our 40th Birthday book!  My best friend is adopted and within the last few years found her birth mother as well.  Her birth mother and all the rest of her family are coming for Thanksgiving so she is too a little worried about the ackwardness as well.  She is very excited to have everyone for the holidays so I can image how wonderful it must of been to have the unique opporunity.  Again, Happy Belated birthday!  Cindy

8/10/2008 9:03:03 PM - 000031826072
Hi Joey!  Yes, I did get a shared site set up and I'm so glad you stopped by and left me your site address - now I have you under my fav links!  Your header pictures are fantastic - so colorful and eye catching.  I loved reading some of your comments on your site to learn more about you.  I will definitely follow your suggestion and make a book about my new husband and I from childhood to engagement - but it will have to make it a long term project.  First I have to create a gift for my good friend who is turning 40 in October and another birthday book for a friend that is turning 45.  Your two most recent books are great examples.  In fact, I already have such a long project list that it's unreal (thanks to you and the other gurus with all your great ideas!) Thanks! All of your comments and encouragement are so inspiring - thanks for being you!

8/9/2008 10:38:50 PM - 001031312785
Hey Joey just stopped by to say hi - Thanks for the invite - its so much easier to go on your site when its added as part of "my sites" Love checking out all your new pics as you add them!

8/9/2008 9:01:40 PM - 000085599530
...I wanted to see your site within the list of my sites...on my page...:)

8/9/2008 8:41:08 PM - 000085599530
Yeah!! I am so happy I am a member of your site..Love the dog photos!  Soooo cute.

8/9/2008 3:55:11 PM - 001025707996

Joey...

Thanks for the great comments on my book.  Like you I have become obsessed with the photo books, I love to do them.  I just wish I had more time to play around with them.  I was looking at some of your book and saw a few similarities that made me laugh.  You just celebrated your 40th birthday...so did I, (Aug 3rd).  Happy Birthday to both of us!!!  Your best friends name is Kim...mine is also Kym, her birthday is Aug 7th.  When my kids go back to school I'm thinking of doing a web page as well...will be checking back to get ideas and maybe even some help.  Love the site!!

Steph - jsgjmiller

8/9/2008 12:06:43 AM - 001031312785
Hi Joey - I love stopping in to see what you've been doing. You are doing such awesome in the Gallery - I love reading all your comments... Great job! Your sky pictures look great - I can see its sunny where you are! I'm still haven't got around to embedding ...even the word sounds intimidating LOL I have to read Tiffany's tutorial...

Joey ... your site looks great! It's amazing to see what all the other gurus are up to! You are possibly the most diligent of all! I don't think I've ever come across a  book you haven't commented on... and you always have such nice, innovative, inspiring things to say. I take my hat off to you! I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Hi Joey! Thanks for sharing your site with us! It's great, I love the header pics! Here's mine if you'd like to check it out. brianariviniusphotography.site.shutterfly.com

You'll have to share with me how you figured out how to get the photobook on your share site since you said you just figured it out. I finally gave up! LOL! Anyways, thanks again for sharing, I'll check in from time to time! Until then, see you around gallery!

Hi..You were asking about Alyssa's book. She has it just about done.  All of her pages are white right now but pictures in place. She wants to add some color to them.  I will let you know as soon as it is posted.  I am still working on a 5x7 book, but  none of the covers really match my colors inside. I wish they had a brown colored cover... Ann

Good morning...Stopping by to say hi.  Thanks for the incredible comment on my Summer Swimming Adventure book.  You are so kind.  I have so busy trying to catch up with everything from my own pictures and all of the Guru stuff.  I felt so behind after comming back from vacation on Monday. You have new books, I must check them out...:)

I just looked at your latest book for Kim.  Joey it is so heartfelt and wonderful.  I love the purple bow - reminds me of Madonnaesque look.  I also love how the glasses changed through the years - to contacts? or lasik?  Anyway awesome job as usual.

Joanna you are always so quick! :)  I'm trying to get started and yes I'm stubbling through it as you noticed.  Thanks for your comments.  I'm flip back and forth at everyone elses to get ideas.  You always have such amazing ideas.  The photo is actually my best friend taking a picture of me taking a picture of her if that makes sense.  ha-ha.  I'm so far behind on my shutterfly since I have been so busy at work and then phone lines in the neighborhood where cut by some silly kids...ugh no internet.  I'm trying to get back rolling.  Thanks again for your kind comments!  Have a great evening and see you in the Gallery!

Hey Joanna - Thanks for those kind words about my site - It's so much fun isn't it? But wow is there a big learning curve or what! Embedding is next...I wanted to mention how much I enjoyed reading about you & all your comments to others - you are a real inspiration to us all

Hey Joey - I finally had some free time to check out your site.  I love the pictures you chose for your banner.  The colors are beautiful and the pictures are things that makes one think of summer fun!

Hey post anything of mine you would like, I feel honored. I need to get my Guru page added. Just getting back from vacation and trying to get ready to go back to work, arghhhhhh. Thanks for all the lovely comments you left me in the gallery. Your books and site are wonderful. I look forward to being in the Guru group and getting to know all of you better.

Joey,

Your site is coming along GREAT! I love your header photos. Colorful and beautiful and cheerful.  Your page really reflects your personality. Btw, I can't wait to figure this place out a little more. I still don't know how to post my books! 

Oh, and thank you for your compliments on Sage's videos. She's a really smart little cookie, just turned 4.

8/2/2008 5:11:30 PM - 001087896398

I am having so much fun today...thanks for the post.  I am learning so much and I LOVE looking at all of the books in the gallery.  Thank you so much for all of your support!  You are such a mentor.

oops ... forgot to tell you that the bear was only ten feet or so from our deck.  I live in NW Wisconsin, so this is a fairly common site although this monster was a 'bit' close.  Last summer a big mama was up ON our deck with her triplet cubs checking out our hamburger-laden grill.  No camera that day!

Thanks so much for your kind comments about my Photo Book ... I actually never dreamed I would get a comment, much less such a nice one.  I so enjoy my photography and very much appreciate your kind words.

Hey Joey!

 

This is really cool.  Great way to show your great work and keep in touch.  Where are some pictures of you?

Post away...I am wanting to post some books also, but having to take some time to figure it out - the how's and I am soooo not a web expert.  I think this is so awesome, and LOVE looking around...was not sure how to ask to be added as a member or how to invite folks without an email address.  Anything you want to post from me, please feel free.  Thanks so much for your congratulations on being a member of the Guru team.  I am trying to think what I should include in the information about me section :  )  It is such an honor for me because I am always looking for inspiration and new ideas from you guys.

 Thanks so much for being such a strong and supportive mentor for me on the books and I LOVE that you invited me to see your site.  Your site layout is so nice. 

7/19/2008 3:23:07 PM - 001087896398

This is so awesome.  I really love looking at all of your books, and your pictures are amazing.  This is such a great homepage.  I really love Shutterfly also, and enjoy looking around the gallery for new ideas and inspiration.

Thank you so much for all of your inspirations and your insights.  I look forward to joining you on the Gallery Guru team in August.  You are truly an inspiration.

I will enjoy visiting your page often to see what you have added!

Wow great start to your site.  I love the colorful pictures of your heading. Shutterfly makes this so easy you will love working on your web page. I know your style of design will come through like your books. I like your red colored font, I never thought about changing the color of the fonts.  See you gave me an idea and didnt even know it. :) Hope to see you soon at my site....

7/18/2008 12:37:56 AM - 000082378991
Awesome start to the site!! You're going to have a lot of fun with this. Looks GREAT so far. Holler at me if you need help with anything! LOVE the pictures!!!

Joey,

You are a dear sweet generous person and I only know you through the Guru Team. As for your website...the composition of the photos and their vibrance make a beautiful and eye-catching heading. The one of the umbrella almost makes me yearn for the midwest again. And what you wrote about yourself gives us a perfect picture of who you really are. I'm blessed to be on the Shutterfly Gallery Team with you. I'll be back soon to see your new photos and learn more about you.  :-)

Joey,

Great job on your Home Page. I understand how you feel about getting started. I changed and added things to my site so many times but it's easy to get things rolling with this free website. It's the easiest I've used by far. Looking forward to seeing it grow!

Great job, Joey!

 

I love your header images. That umbrella photo is beautiful. And your welcome paragraph sounds just like you. Thoughtful, honest, and generous. You are great.

 

Can't wait to see what comes next.
