Anyone up for some friendly competition???

So I have been struggling with the name of our blog for quite some time now, I know it's just a blog and not a big deal, but something that is on my mind. I noticed a while ago on one of my friends blogs that she had a friend with the same blog name as ours of "Our Journey". It really bothered me, I want our blog name to be original to our family. I have since changed it to "The ABC's of Life (ABC is Andy's initials), but I am just not feeling it and I cannot think of anything that I like, for some reason lately my creative juices are just not flowing.

Here's the deal, we are looking for suggestions for a new blog name. Please comment and tell us your suggestion. On December 22nd we will go through the suggestions and choose a winner! The winner will receive a surprise Christmas gift from our family to yours! Sound like fun??? I thought so. Good luck, happy brainstorming, and Merry Christmas!!

If Andy had his own blog, it should be "The ABC's of the ER"

Sandra said...

Ha ha, can you tell it's finals week?!

Coil Fam said...

OK this one hit me about 3 a.m.

Good times at the ABC Corral...

NO, whatever, I know Andrea has this all sewn up, because she gets to use Devin to make the graphics. I still say that's not fair. ;) There, see I can use graphic art too. Ha! Take that Devin and Andrea.

Coil Fam said...

I GOT IT!

The Andy Bush Coil ‘ Shay’s Life

OK, so I tried it in word and did all these cool fonts with the first letters really big, but when I paste it into the comment, it doesn't work. Now I'm worried, because that is about as graphic as I can get.

Coil Fam said...

Hey Starky! Your DAD, take that!

Coil Fam said...

Hmmm...

Best of Friends

All About Us

How about something to do with fly fishing?

Nymsphs and Adults

Ugh, no, never mind. I've seen those things in real life.

Coil Fam said...

Oops, I spelled NYMPHS wrong. I'm sure Andy will notice that one.

Coil Fam said...

I'm heading to Madison's basketball gaem, so I call a "time out". Hey, there you go, something to do with sports, of course, you need something for the girls too.

BALLS and BELLE's

Coil Fam said...

OK, now I'm embarrassed, that didn't sound very nice. Andy, stop laughing!

Coil Fam said...

Andy, I said STOP Laughing.
