Problem Solved!

Some of our options were different!  Some people (me included) were unable to search youtube directly from blogger!  It turns out that we were using the old settings (not sure why that is).  It was easily fixed by clicking on settings and changing setting to updated settings! 

Birthday Cake

I found this image on creative commons so I know that I don't have to worry about copyright infringement! I love how blogger gives me the option to search several sights that are free to use!
