600 Followers

posted on: Sunday, April 17, 2011

Oh my goodness! You guys! Guess what landmark we hit today?! 600 followers! Dude! The last week of December, I set the goal of growing my 300 followers to 600 by January 1st of NEXT YEAR! We already hit it! I'm so excited and pretty taken aback quite honestly. Wow! I'm super excited that there are so many of you lovelies peeking in and following our journey. I think my new goal will be to reach 1,000 by next year. Who knows, maybe we'll pass that up beforehand? You have no idea how much I enjoy reading your comments and emails! It makes me smile so, SO big. Thank you for taking the time to leave little bits of sweetness for us.

I feel like I'm up to my eyeballs in backed up blog posts. I'm working on 5 guest posts, 3+ for a new blog/website that I'm contributing to and about 4 for my own. HA! Can you say PRIORITIZE? Yeah, it's something I'm learning to do better. haha. I find that when I get overwhelmed with either ideas, inspirations or projects that I just sit back and look at them. I dream about how wonderful they WILL be as they just sit there, remaining un-written and waiting to be created. But, today is one of my make it happen days. I'm sitting here with Sam, cuddled on the couch while Káel naps, a romantic comedy is playing in the background and I'm editing pics and writing fun paragraphs of my life from this past month. That's a pretty fabulous afternoon.

Well my dear pretties, I'm excited to journey with you! Happy scribbles to me and happy dreaming to you!

Jess

    I totally know how you feel in regards to dreaming about it and then sitting on it for awhile without making it happen. I'm up to a whole 5 followers, LOL and wishing I could get more people interested, like yourself, in following me :) Have an enjoyable Sunday ^_^

    Hello new follower here! I found your blog via Sometimes Sweet and I love your writing. I am 7 months pregnant and have always been lazy on putting my eco sensibilities into action - blogs like yours inspire me to change that for my soon-to-be-baby. Congratulations on 600 :)

    congrats! I have been following since your boho chic bride blog! It has been so cool to see your family grow and your blog too. ;)
    p.s. I think i still watch your wedding video on a regular basis to get ideas for mine (which is in 4 weeks ah!).
    you are such an inspiration. :)
