Lucky 7

It's hard to believe it, but I have been writing this blog for SEVEN years! WOW? Where has the time gone?

Seven years ago I was still working for Nike and we led a dog free, child free life, so I had some extra time on my hands. My friend Meredith had a blog. She was the first "blogger" I knew, and she helped me learn how to write a post, how to embed content, how to add a widget, etc. My other dear friend Sara helped create a logo, and that was that.

I wish I could say the look of the blog has changed, but it's the same. If Katie and I had the time to dedicate to it, we would move to a different platform, we would re-design the site to make it beautiful and more user friendly....but we don't. So we keep posting, and we hope you keep following.

I wish I could say that I will keep writing for another 7 years, but it could be 7 months or 7 days. I can't put a date on it. Writing this blog is a labor of love. And when people tell me they read the blog, that I inspire their purchases, that they feel comforted by the "Keeping it Real" posts or that they follow a travel recommendation, it makes it all worth while. So thank you. Thank you for reading. Thank you for keeping us going.

Happy Birthday C&C! It's been a good 7 years!
