What Do Y'all Think??

Okay, so what do y'all think of my new look? A friend helped me with the new header design. Doesn't it look great? I tried to simplify the sidebars and add my about me. Not lovin' the pic but I can change that as soon as I find one I do love :) Anyone want to take a nice pic of me?? I kinda liked the wood because it makes me feel like y'all are on my front porch for a chat {even though my front porch isn't wood anymore:( }Give me some feedback! Please :)
