Today I am celebrating my
"1" Year
blog
ANNIVERSARY!!
It's hard to believe that it has already been a year since I started
~ the Grand Surprise ~
and began blogging. I had only really discovered the blogging world about a year earlier when I was taking art classes from a friend who had just started a blog to keep her students updated on upcoming schedules and events and also from links my mother had started sending me around the same time. I was fascinated by the photos, the stories and endless creativity and began toying with the idea of starting a blog of my own. After a lot of thought and hesitation I finally did it and now it has already been a year. I am still learning a lot, which is half the fun, and of course it wouldn't be any fun at all if nobody was stopping by to visit so a BIG thank you to my family, friends and everyone that checks out my posts. I love the comments, emails and encouragement from all of you.
So here are some FUN FACTS (aka: stats) from
the Grand Surprise

ReplyDeleteJennifer, you've done such a fantastic job with your blog! I love coming over here and seeing what you've been doing (and cooking...yum! Your food photos always make me drool ;-)
ReplyDeletei, too, get such a kick out of the stats; in fact, just posted about it (flour sack babies???--go figure!). My top countries that visit are US, Russia and Ukraine. I can't BELIEVE how many Russia visits I get....what's up with that??
Keep up the good work! Your blog is great. Sometime we should get together--I'd love to get some photo tips from you.
