Blog Widgets!

Ok, thanks to my fabulous fellow bloggers at the roommate reunion, I am now up on the coolest of blog widgets and thought I'd share! I made my new heading (and headings for mom and Kristi's blogs) using a FREE website: www.scrapblog.com. Just create your "page," save, publish, then go to file/export to jpeg. You can then use the jpeg as your header. AWESOMENESS.

The other cool widget is the SiteMeter. It shows you how many people visit your site and what links referred them. So far, I've had two visitors do unrelated Google searches and end up on our blog. CRAZY. Again, this widget is free.

The last widget, most of you have already discovered, but it's the blog list that updates and gives snippets of the latest and greatest blog headlines. I love this!!!! It's under Layout on blogger.com. Add a page element.

***Can you tell it's summer and I'm now back into blogging full force?? I heart summer vacation!

Ok, so I made my header, but I can't get it load right on my blog. It's off-centered. Hmm...please help.
Also, we have the sitemeter and I love it...we've had all kinds of funny google searches like McKenzie brownies New Orleans...well, right.
