1st Blogiversary!

Happy Blogiversary to me!



This little blog turned 1 year old last Friday, June 24th. But that was the day I picked up Doug from the airport, so my mind was elsewhere :)

I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I created The Smitten Mintons a year ago, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only do a have a journal that I (and our kids) can look at years down the road, but I have also met so many amazing people that I wouldn't have otherwise. I have gained some of my closest friends from the blog world, and I just love the encouraging little community that I have found here! Thank you all for reading, it means a lot to me that you would care to listen to my ramblings and hear about our lives. Your comments make me smile every time and I just love y'all!

I have decided that I want to print out each post, just in case Blogger slips up again and deletes anything! I know that there are many websites that do it, including www.blog2print.com, where you can make it into a book. I think I'm going to do this each year! Has anyone done this? Which website did you use?

Again, thank you so much to everyone who reads! It's been a wonderful year with y'all!

    Happy Birthday to your blog! I love reading about you, Doug, and your precious pets! I'm looking forward to the day when we can finally meet in person! :)

    Also, I see that you're reading The Help. I read that a few weeks ago; it's really good! I hope you're liking it!

    One of the best parts of my year has been the blessed joy that is your blog! Choosing my favorite post is like choosing my favorite kid (even though I don't have kids - fingers crossed I meet a guy like Doug!) If I had to say I would pick the video blog. Part 2 with a Doug appearance soon?!?!
