Amanda at Serenity Now is having a Dishing It Party and i'm attending! I love parties!
I started blogging almost a year ago in May...my lil addiction started when a friend had some pictures taken and I loved how her photographer captured moments and decided to cruise on over to the photographers web page...
at this point I really didn't know much about blogs & thought it was something only writers did..lol little did i know right? lol
As I entered her site I saw the cutest little girls in these adorable outfits{one day i would like to have a tween line..one of my many things i'd like to accomplish in this lifetime & there's more...OMGoodness I'm all over the place.. :)}...sorry, sometimes i just ..ok back to my story...in her post she mentioned the outfits were by "Matilda Jane" sooo, of course me as nosey as i am started googling...thank god for inter net!! I found her site and clicked on "blog"...still had no clue what i was fixin to see..OH MY... I was instantly addicted & SOOO inspired by all the beautiful pictures and how she just wrote about everyday things!
SO, I thought to myself why not start my own blog w/ my own passions.. that's how it began :)
{ahemmm..i'd like to one day take photography classes as well...}
"La Borda Bleu" is derived from a couple of languages...Spanish & french which means in english "The Blue Cottage"
I don't live in a blue cottage but, I knew these words best described me & my style...Bleu for water & written in French {love the french eclectic look & LOVE being near the water}. Borda means Cottage which is my ultimate flavor of decorating...
I like to blog about different things...I love to show how much love we have been pouring into this house we call our home! We began our renovation of our 1957 bungalow 10 years ago! Then, we added 900 sq. feet around 3 or so years ago and we are still working on the last stages of our home. It's hard to document as it comes in stages when our money tree is in full bloom! :) I don't want to limit myself to one thing to blog about{ as you can see...lol}
to be honest it just depends on what i'm in the mood for that day whether it's about a tasty treat, a party idea, decorating eye candy or my family.
I really enjoy blogging, it lets my creative side out! I have very few to no friends who enjoy the same things I do so, blogging helps divert this energy that I LOVE!
I have made a couple new friends with similar passions and it puts a super big O smile on my face!
I hope for MORE new friends as I always have room for YOU!
