I've been reading about them on other people's blogs for years now and I must say now that mine is here, I'm quite surprised, as I'm sure many of you were, to be in the club. Today is my one year blogiversary.
I have written 393 posts and except for the Monday Morning series, and a very small handful of posts, all the words and photographs in every post were created by me. I think I am achieving my original goal which I talked about in my very first post.
Thank You. Thank you for coming by here when you have time, thank you for signing up to follow me and THANK YOU for leaving comments because we all know it's that interaction that makes it so worthwhile. As is usually the case with me, I'm going to be pondering the path of my blog baby for a while - deciding where it should go from here, what clothes it should wear and the like.
It is also the one year anniversary of my shop because I'm crazy and launched them both on the same day. To celebrate them both - a GIVEAWAY of course. I will make the winner a customized initial necklace in sterling silver with a vintage pearl bead accent. This one is for followers so leave a comment here letting me know that you follow and if you blog about, tweet or facebook the giveaway you get another entry for each - leave additional comments letting me know (and THANK YOU so much for doing that!).
Thank You again, it has been a lovely journey so far and I can't wait to see where this virtual road will lead me next.

Happy Blog Birthday.
I have enjoyed your blog and even though I wasn't here for the whole year it has been fun !
I an amazed how we tweak our blogs in the first year to get them closer to idea of what we wanted.
For my blog it was pretty simple, photos of how lovely Tucson, Arizona is and my travels to Japan with a very small amount of text. A writer I am not !
Wishes for another great year.
cheers, parsnip
Congratulations dear Momma. Love you!
