The NEW ME!

I’m SO excited!! I really love my new website. If you somehow missed it, here’s the link: www.shannonmontez.com
I’m so stinking excited to finally have it up and ready to go. I’d love to know your thoughts on it. I’d love it if you’d show everyone you know. I put my heart into it, I hope it connects with yours.

The last couple days, I’ve been working feverishly and somewhat spontaneously on a new BLOG, too! Until about two days ago, I had it on my list for later, someday, hopefully when DAVE decides to do it for me. But at the encouragement of a friend (thanks, Lisa Russo!), I just went ahead and got over my fear of technology and customized my own blog. I LOVE IT!! There are a few tweaks here and there that I will be making in the next few days, but so far, I’m really loving this. And so stinking proud of myself for figuring out how to do it.

If you have my old blog linked to your blog, please update your link to this address: www.shannonmontez.com/blog
I’ll leave the old blog up for a while, but mainly it will just direct people here. I’ve migrated all of my old posts, so this blog has everything the old one did. Please let me know if you have any problems viewing either the blog or the website so I can get any possible bugs worked out asap.

Thanks for visiting, please say hi! I feel like this is a housewarming party or something. :)

    Shannon, I just had a looksy at your new photo site and watched “Meet mine…” HELLO! Did you do that to make us all cry? I am seriously “verklepmt” right now. I LOVE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE; the blog, the site, etc. I feel like your mom, and am so proud of you and all your wonderful, extraordinary accomplishments. If you rock any harder, I will have to have you poured into my driveway as gravel.

    Thanks for being so stinkin’ darn cool and for sharing *you* with all of us!

    Congrats on the new website Shannon. It looks awesome! My kids loved seeing the pic of me and hubby and little Toby (from our mini-session in November) in your gallery. You do beautiful work and your family is so cute.

    Congratulations on the new website and blog. I love the symbolism of your logo. The pictures, as always are beautiful. I especially like the “meet mine” introduction. That’s a great idea.

    It is fantastic and brilliant and any other nice, extravagant words you can think of! I LOVE it! I was so about to use that song on my website!!! My husband e-mailed it to me the other day and said this made me think of you. I had never heard it before and I loved it! You are going to make a fortune with that site! It is a dream….Now I need to get to work on mine!

    Foncy, schmoncy! Love it! You are so super, mega, ultra, lightning talented! We missed you guys this weekend. We were driving up to Sacramento and felt a little homesick when we didn’t exit to the 152:( Hope you had a fabulous Easter, the site looks fab!
