I’ve been blogging for over 4 years now. That’s 484 blog posts on this blog. I have blogged about everything that has been happening in the life of my family. From vacations, to raising our children, food I’ve made, my photography and design, documenting our crazy life, life and death, hopes, dreams, faith…you name it!
So many topics that it got me thinking. What have been my most popular posts? In case you are curious too, I looked it up my WordPress Stats page and here are my top 5 posts {drum roll, please}….
Number 1: Donut Party. My daughter’s 8th birthday party was a donut theme. She’s not much of a cake lover, that’s reason for the donuts. I even design her very own Alex’s Donut Shop Logo to put on all the party swag.
Number 2: Crazy Bird. As I was saying earlier about documenting our crazy life, this time it was a crazy woodpecker that broke into our house and harassed us.
Number 3: Birthday Party Ideas. You guys like your parties. Besides the donut party, I posted a Hao! Kai-Lan party for $60, our annual ice cream social, a Halloween themed birthday party, Ice Sk8ter party, Neon themed, and hubby’s 50th birthday party. We like parties too.
Number 4: Advent Begins…Hope, Preparation, Joy, Love. I shared our family traditions of Advent.
Number 5: Saying Sorry. Is saying, “sorry” good enough? If you say that one little word does it make the wrong okay? Is it enough to be forgiven?
I had a craft blog for almost year before I started over with got2havefaith blog. Why the name got2havefaith? Well, it steams from this post. In a nut shell, hubby and I found out we were pregnant with our second child. I was excited. He was freaked out. I would always say, “You have to have faith that it will all work out.” God has a plan. Got2havefaith was born and Faith became that baby’s middle name.
Two of my favorite blog posts: Motherhood…it’s Tough and Finding Joy in the Simple Things.
The post with the most comments: Marriage is… Written in September 2010 this post continues to surprise me when I receive a comment on it. And, who doesn’t love nice comments?
I hope that even if you have just stumbled upon my blog by accident, or have been reading for a while, you would check out some older stuff too. Who knows, you might see something you haven’t seen before. And, I want to thank everyone who has subscribed to my blog, clicks the “Like” button, leaves comments and stops by to read. You guys rock! Even though I write this blog for me as a creative outlet, I love to know that you are enjoying it too. I won’t lie, it is a bit of an ego boost. 😉
So, there it is…my stats. Have you checked yours?

Oh, one more thing. Do you know about the Feedly app? It’s one alternative for Google Reader users, since it’s going away. It’s another way to read your favorite blogs on your tablet.
Organize your favorite blogs, news sites, podcasts and Youtube channels and access them all in one place (or sync with Google Reader).
Feedly is available everywhere you go. Your phone, tablet and computer are always in sync.
I am trying it out…’cause I love apps!
