Blogiversary Fun – Year 3

3 Year Blogiversary - The Queen in Between

It’s my 3 year blogiversary friends!  Well, truth be told, August 1st was my 3 year blogiversary but if I’ve learned anything in my three years of blogging it is LIFE happens.  Can I get an Amen?  I’ve been making notes and dreaming about the blogiversary week edition since probably early May but have not been able to gather my thoughts along with some photos to pull it all together.

This week I’m going to spend some time sharing what I’ve loved and what I’ve learned in year 3.  PLUS, you won’t want to miss stopping back by each day because I’m also going to have 3 days of giveaways you will NOT want to miss.  Today I’m leaving you with just a few tidbits!

774 – The number of blogposts I’ve compiled since August 1st, 2014

Most Viewed – Fashion posts receive the most views on my site with the most viewed blogpost year 3 being Spring Stitch Fix Review. 

Personal Fave – While I love pulling together new outfits and showing them off, my favorite posts tend to be the ones straight from my heart!  This 3rd year of blogging had me feeling brave and I finally shared Why Jesus is my Favorite.

Collaborations – Joining together with the 9 other stylish ladies to show our ageless style has definitely led me to so much fun fashion while an invitation to join The Blended Blog ladies is certainly allowing me to become closer with some of my favorite bloggers.

Linkups – While I love co-hosting with the besties, our Royally Waiting link-up was just not given the love it really required. Sometimes an idea is awesome but nothing can succeed on it’s own without a little work! Keep waiting because we are working on something a little more structured for fall!  Speaking of Linkups, it is so time consuming to link posts across various blogs but it is the biggest ways to put your blog out there!  See all my favorites each week by visiting the Linkup Love tab in the navigation bar.

The struggle is still real for me to stay consistent with a blog calendar!  Maybe year 4 will see me settle in a bit!

Year 3 has been full of lots of change, more learning and more amazing women than I could have imagined.  So much more to learn!  I have so many ideas floating around in my head and some even on paper with hopes of bringing some new life to the blog in year 4!

Thanks so much to YOU for stopping by each day and reading!  I love your comments, your support and have enjoyed getting to know a few of you more personally through email or the Facebook healthy eating group.  You make this a space I want to continue to come to and you give me the freedom to be me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that!

Now, for real, come back Wednesday thru Friday and get yourself registered for the giveaways!  I promise it will be worth it!
