New Name New Look

So, as you can see things look a little different around here and I am sooooo excited about it. I'm not even sure how I got the bug. When I started this blog as Frugalista Getting Married I was planning our wedding on a budget. After the wedding dropping Getting was easy enough but after four years I was ready for a change. All of a sudden I was just really itching for a name change. I thought about it for a while to see if I could actually come up with a new blog title that I'd want to keep forever and ever. Once I had the name I could not wait to get it changed up. Like, I needed it done now!! I came up with a different name at first but then suddenly Pink Sunshine just came to me. It's perfect. Pink is my all time favorite color and I can't imagine that ever changing. I love Pink. It's dainty, feminine and tutu's all wrapped up in a pretty satin bow. I'm a girly girl. It fits me. And being a born and raised So Cal girl who is more likely then not cold even when everyone else isn't will probably never change either. At least until I hit menopause. I crave warmth and Sunshine. I can't guarantee that I am going to live here forever; although I can't see myself living anywhere else but I know I'll always love the Sunshine and hate the rain. So there you have it. Pink Sunshine.

I had a new name and then a blog designer fell into my lap via referral from Jasmine who just had hers done. It turned out she was available to work on it right away and it all happened faster then I expected it to.

I'm not changing my url thank goodness so it should be pretty seamless. I'm going to be updating my Bloglovin', Twitter, Facebook, Instagram usernames accordingly. The only ones who have to actually update anything will be my handful of RSS subscribers and one e mail subscriber so those folks, please update your feeds accordingly as I will be changing that too. Also, if you currently have one of my buttons on your blogs you will want to switch that up as well.

I was kind of nervous about changing my name because a lot of people find my blog by searching the blog title. What if they can't find me anymore? Once I decided to change the name I wanted it yesterday so there really was no getting around it. I had to do it. And since I'm not the biggest fan of change I'm 99.9 percent sure that this will be the last time it happens. I figure I better do it now before I blow up in the blog world. Which I know is about to happen any day now.

The first time I had a blog make over I wasn't too sure of what I wanted but this time I was more specific in my requests. Especially since I plan on keeping this design for a looooong time. My blog designer is Rekita who blogs over at Her & Nicole and her design site is Designed Lovely Studio. I have to give her a big giant THANK YOU because I was relentless in my e mails about this, that and the other and she was relentless in the way that she responded to me and did everything she could to give me what I wanted. We e mailed back and forth constantly for days! We're talking over 60 emails. All. Day. Long. Change is really hard for me, I am a perfectionist, I am a control freak and I am obsessed. I'm sure she's thrilled to have her life back. I know I am! I really appreciate her hard work on this. There were a few glitches at the end but she figured out how to fix everything and she even made some last minute changes for me. She never made me feel like I was a pain in the butt even though I probably was. I know I was!!!

Frugalista Married is now Pink Sunshine. Hope you enjoy my new look as much as I do.
