For all of my family and friends:
I do hope that you enjoy being able to keep up on our latest news and photos via this blog. I know it can be a pain to have to register and login to websites–especially ones that you visit often 
, but I do hope that you will take the time to register to continue seeing our blog. I am sorry that you will have to make an extra effort, and I hope that you will think that we are worth it. We have beefed up our security online and at home due to some discomforting things that have happened recently. If you have any problems viewing the blog please contact me and I will try to help you through. I may post more details about what’s going on, but right now I have to run the kids to dance.
what the heck happened? should i beef up too? i’m so new at all this, and now i’m a little bit scared…
Angie, I don’t think you need to be scared, but you can beef up as you see fit. For now at least, the link to your page from ours will only be accessible by people I have approved for our blog.
yikes. thanks for the explanation.
