New Layout Design!!

Check it out!!  Things are looking a lot different around here lately.  In the past few weeks I have been looking around at other blogs a lot for some ideas of what to do with my own.  I love working on my layout, and I really loved my old one, but I realized something.... it was way too busy and cutesy...

So I've working over the last couple of days to come up with something completely NEW!  And I am really loving how it is turning out so far!

I am still in the process of making some finishing touches... but let's face it, I always will be!  So I would love to hear what you all think!  Do you think it is a good change, or do you like the old layout better?  I'd love to hear your tips and suggestions :)
