I know I haven't posted in forever. And I am so very sorry. It's not that I'm running low on inspiration. In fact, that's one thing I have more than enough of right now. It's just that my computer has been running low on space lately (like, less than 2gb of space left) and having 25,000+ photos on it doesn't help. So I've been working on backing them up. Except that it's not that simple and I'm quite terrified that I've lost half my library. And it's just been extremely stressful. (Prayers would be much appreciated!)

So I just wanted to say that, yes, I do in fact have a new design! I'm so happy to finally have it up, as it has been a month and a half of mind-boggling html and css coding and rebranding and craziness. But it's finally here. And I can finally check it off my list. So take a look around, and let me know what you think!

I don't have much for ya here today. But I'd like to get a real post up soon, as long as the backing-up process ends well (and soon!). However school starts soon and that won't help. So hang in there, don't leave me quite yet! Y'all are such amazing followers and I couldn't bear to lose you!

xoxo,
alex anne

p.s. I forgot to mention that my real name is Alex, and I will be going by that name from now on. I used 'Alexa' as a screen name to protect my privacy, but I decided that dropping the 'a' works just as well. I know it might be awkward for you, as most of you have grown to know my face as 'Alexa', so if you wish to still call me that, feel free! I'm not going to stop you! I just thought I would let you know before you went off thinking some creep secretly replaced me. ;)

p.p.s If you are interested in sponsoring/swap-sponsoring this blog, please email me!

    love you,
    k

  4. Hello Alex! It does sound a little funny to call you that because for a while I've put Alexa to your face but oh well! Haha Alex Anne is a pretty name and I shall start calling you that now, if that is what you prefer. :)
    I love love love your blog design. So cute! I'm still going to hop around and check out your different pages. :) oh! And what exactly does it mean to swap sponsor. I'm new to all this blogger stuff.

    I understand being busy and having difficulties with technology. I'm not leaving you haha.

    Blessings!

    1. Thanks Madi! Sponsor swapping is essentially swapping blog buttons and putting them on your blog as a sponsor. It's the sponsoring, without the pay! :)

    1. Thank you, Abbie! Yes, my name is short for Alexandria. :) But the only person who calls me that is my grandpa. :))

  15. I remember wondering why you went by Alexa on here. It all makes sense now!
