It’s My 2nd Blogiversary!

Yesterday in my house we had another reason to party besides the Super Bowl. Yesterday marked the 2nd anniversary of my very first blog post! I can’t believe I’ve been sharing Sadie’s photos and adventures for two years now! Sadie and I have done a lot of learning and growing these past two years and this blog keeps getting bigger and better. During my first year of blogging I was totally focused on learning the mechanics behind having a blog, designing the look and feel of the blog, setting up social media accounts, and all the little details I didn’t know before becoming a blogger. By the time this second year of my blog began I was a lot more comfortable with the how to of blogging and got to focus more on content. I was able to partner with some great companies and review some awesome products. I got paid for a blog post for the first time. I went to my first blogging conference, BlogPaws, and was able to meet and learn from a lot of other amazing bloggers. And most importantly, this blog has given me a reason to seek out adventures for Sadie and I to have together. So on my second Blogiversary I want to say thank you to all of you readers out there who support and encourage all the good times and hard work that goes into every photo I take and blog post I write.
