This is the most fun idea for a blog post ever. I didn’t come up with it, but I’m going with it anyway. I totally stole the idea from Jen (see her post here). You’re gonna love it. I think. Or maybe not. Either way, it’s okay. I’m going to have fun doing it.
Okay, so here’s what Jen did. She went through her blog’s media files and picked out the 10 images that best represent what her blog is about. Hence her title, “Ten images that tell you everything you need to know about this blog.”
How freaking fun is that? I love looking back through old photos I’ve posted on my blog. So, I did. And I picked out 10 of them. So here you go. Ten photos that capture the essence of this little blog:
I write about the stuff my kids and I do. Maybe it’s not super exciting material, but whatever. I’m leaving a record for them here. The Summer Fun List I put together this year was one of the best things I’ve done. And I’ve blogged about it (obnoxiously) often since then. Here is the original post with the image. The list is also mentioned here and here. Oh, and here. And here.
Kids’ books, grown up books, love me some books. Original post.
I ought to have a picture of Super Friend and myself here, seeing as how I can’t stop telling you all about how awesome she is and how every mom needs one. A Super-mom-friend I mean. But oddly, I don’t have any pictures of the two of us and very few of her. So, instead here are my two older girls with her oldest three Mini-Supers. Original post.
Original post. And here.
I write about my husband a lot. Because he’s just the best (he’s the bearded one, BTW). I also write about family a lot. His. Mine. Ours. Several posts were dedicated this year to the family reunion party to end all family reunion parties: The Labor Day Party. Post #1. Post #2. Post #3 (containing ^^ that picture).
Original post containing this photo is here. But the photo is a much better visual for this post. Or even this one. Or this one.
I like to write about cooking, and post cute pics of my kids doing it with me. Original post.
Sometimes I get kind of crafty. And I like to do it on the cheap. Then I like to share. Original post.
We travel a lot. Original post.
Winter. It seems like every year I write about how much snow we are getting and how much of a pain it is to get my kids dressed to go out and play. As if I’m surprised that we are getting snow. In winter. In Wisconsin. Last year we had a fun visitor to add some interest to the gee-whiz-we-have-so-much-snow posts.
There you have it. Ten photos. My blog. Fun stuff.
Oh my gosh, these are great! I’m a new-ish reader to your blog so this was such a fun way to get to know you and what you write about better. Thanks for a great post!
Thanks Jen! And thanks for the inspiration 🙂
