3rd Bloggiversary!!!!
It’s that time of year when I look at the first post I had written for Muddy Boot Dreams three years ago, cringe, and quickly click out of it. Something's are best left undisturbed.
Time and space are good things, they bring growth, and perspective, along with so many great bloggy friends. Too many to count on all of my fingers, and toes, Bootsie please come here, I need to borrow your paws, and your claws.
Thank you!
I need to thank each and every person that has ever left a comment on my blog. And I am sure that my friends, and family thank you also.
If it were not for you, they would still be held captive as I lugged yet another photo album lovingly created with images captured by my camera, to their lap, and encourage them to page through the ever increasing pile. Oh it’s just a few thousand photos that I have taken over the summer…..they cringed I am sure.
Because of you, my family and friends now have conversations, instead of picture viewing, and if they do show a interest in my photography then there are still enough framed photos on our walls to keep them busy for awhile. Or I can direct them to my blog.
No really, thank you!!
Thank you for being such a great audience, I adore all of you, especially those of you who leave such wonderful comments. No that’s not a soppy tear in my eye, it’s the flash from the sparklers, on the celebratory cupcakes. Of which regretfully I have no photos of, so use your imagination, besides this way it’s calorie free.
Muddy Boot Dreams turned 3 today, and we are officially out of the toddler stage. In bloggy years it’s like we are middle aged, yes, I would even venture to say it’s like having a 40th birthday.
Not that I have one of those coming up next year again, or anything…
Hugs to all of you, Jen @ Muddy Boot Dreams
Ah- what a lovely post. Here's to many more happy years of blogging and photography.

ReplyDeleteWow, 3 years of blogging, where does the time go. Looking forward to reading many, many posts and seeing many, many more gorgeous photos.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogversary! I'm only too happy to participate, along with many others, is encouraging you to continue giving your family a break and share all those photos with us instead. We're quite happy to carry on viewing and reading your great posts.
ReplyDeleteI doubt there are any posts you should cringe about.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are the only one who is ever really able to make me see value in hydrangeas!
Hurray you you, for your blog and for birthdays.

Happy blogiversary...I am glad I found your blog, great photos and always written so well.
ReplyDeleteHappy blog anniversary to you, Jen! I'm so glad you blog and share your lovely pictures!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is a transforming that takes place over time that I have seen even on my own “younger” blog. I think that is as it should be. Creative interests have a way of evolving and changing. The constant thread on your blog, however, is the fine writing and illuminating photographs. Congratulations on this benchmark in your life. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Jen! So happy to have you on my blog list of favourites people & places to visit.
ReplyDeleteI'm blissfully unaware of my anniversary date. Although, I do agree....the first several blog posts are best left to gather dust...
Starting a blog was such a leap of faith. Why would anyone else want to know how fabulous we are? Well amazingly enough they do and they come back and they comment and email and sometimes they meet in person ;-)
ReplyDeleteand like each other and encourage each other.
You have created a community of mostly like minded people and it is a great place to visit.
Happy blogaversary.
You may drag out your photo albums for me, any day. I'll be a captive audience.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your anniversary. Yes, it is a wonderful world we share with one another.
May her flag fly high & proud forever over this great land ... may God see the changes we need & grant us that blessing.
Happy 4th, my friend,
TTFN ~
Hugs,
Marydon
Happy Blogaversary! Yeah, those first few posts are pretty cringe-inducing.
ReplyDeleteHappy Fourth!
Happy Blogiversary Jen! I have enjoyed your postings and humor over the years and of course those fabulous photographs. Looking forward to many more posting from you.

ReplyDeleteIf 3 makes you forty, what does 2 make me?

ReplyDeleteHappy 3rd Anniversary! I've only recently found your blog but I really enjoy reading it and your pics too. All the best to you and keep on blogging! Pamela
ReplyDeleteHappy blogoversary! You are inspirational. I think it would be fun to read your very first post. You should provide a link, along with a link to one of your most popular posts ever.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your blog birthday. You have inspired me, as well. And I know what you mean. The blog seems to give us more purpose in gardening, taking pictures, and writing. I have longed for an audience and now I have a bit of a one and it is fulfilling and fun. You were one of the first that I joined. I love your narrative. Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteHappy number 3, Jen, and many more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary, Jen! It has been a lovely 3 yrs. :)
