Just for a different opinion, I've got an 8" Dob with 25mm and 10mm eyepieces, probably extremely similar to your setup Tennelle.
The first extra thing I bought for it was some Baader Solar Film and an entry level 2x Barlow lens (like a $40 one).
I find that practically every night I'm out doing some visual observing and/or a-focal photography (working on Saturn currently), I use the 25mm with the Barlow. Which is a fabulous combination. Gives the majority of the magnification and detail of the 10mm, but with a far larger area to move your eye around in (due to the larger glass in the 25mm eyepiece - I'm sure I'm using the incorrect language here, someone with a better understanding can clarify).
It's fantastic.
