Why you should have a blog

I was just looking through all of your blogs, those who have them and thinking how great it is, to keep up on your lives and your happenings. I am one of those people who is not great at keeping in touch with friends and that is my #1 reason for you to start a blog. If you don't have one already, and you know and I know who you are, get one so your friends (me mainly) and family can see you and comment on your life and be a part of your life! So here are my other reasons:

  1. To share your life with family and friends
  2. To brag about your children and spouse and yourself of course
  3. To keep a type of journal for you and your posterity
  4. To create something all on your own, you can be really simple or fancy
  5. To share your favorite songs
  6. To get comments from your family and/or friends who you hardly ever hear from
  7. To post funny pictures
  8. To share your opinions, thoughts, feelings
I just want to say to you whose blogs I check on a regular basis, that I love your blogs and your willingness to share your thoughts and family with me. Keep up the blogging and for those of you who don't have one yet, look at these reasons and consider making one, I think you'll be glad you did!

  1. yes blogs are good- a while back I wanted to delete ours but ben convinced me to keep it with some of the things you just said- it is a very good way to keep in contact and updated on lives of people we love:)

  2. Hey Alms, This is so exciting to have found you. I went on the mission website to check updates and saw your update. I agree about blogs. We recently moved and so decided to start a blog. It has been so nice to stay connected to people that we no longer get to see regularly.

    We are still in Washington. Jason is currently going through the Police Academy. He graduated in June in Business Education, but really wanted to try out law enforcement. We have four kids - Emma 4, Paul 2, and Ben and Claire 1.

    So good to see you again. :) I'll follow your blog if you don't mind.

  3. Hear hear! (or is it "here here"?) I wish everyone had a blog. But then, I have a hard time keeping up with the blogs I already follow. Just taking a month off during this postpartum time has socked me with 569 unread posts on my Google Reader!

    I've really enjoyed following your blog over the past year and a half or so. I feel like I know you better than when we were comps! :)
