Blog Layout

Since I am new to all this blogging stuff, I need help. I am trying to figure out how to put a custom background on my page. I've seen a few blogs with them but Blogger Help is no help. So if you knowledgeable in this area, I would appreciate some input. Thanks

Why Blog?

Ok, so I have never blogged in my entire life, but I recently started reading the Living Proof Live Blog, BigMamma, and BooMama blogs. But most importantly, my mother in law is a blogger. So I was inspired (and I need an outlet for my random ramblings because I think I am about to drive my poor husband insane). Plus, as BooMama would say, I am not a scrapbooker. Well, I do still have my wedding book to scrap, but hey I've been married 10 months and everything still sits in the "junk closet."

I see this as a great way to document my newly married life, my entrance into my 30's (does that mean I am a grown up?), and most importantly, God's hand in every aspect of my life.

I hope that by revealing my life experiences, struggles, trials, and joys that others can learn about God's wonderful love for them. I know reading about others facing the same things I do help me to cope.

I struggle, like all Christians, to find a way to evangelize and serve God. So, this is my attempt to step out of my comfort zone. But, please know, I do not see myself as full of wisdom, a "Beth Moore" wannabe or very important. I just hope my experiences can help others know they are not the only ones, and laugh.

So I hope this blog is a source of laughter, stress relief, and hope - and maybe some good recipes.
