#500

After the horrid start this blog had, we've finally made it to 500 posts. The first 3 years were rough...we only posted 8 times (and 2 of those were posted by Brad). The original idea for starting it was to make it a place for extended family, cousins, etc. to keep in touch. That didn't happen and we didn't bother updating it to help get things going.

In 2005 we really picked it up and did even better in 2006. Up until a few days ago, we even had a streak of posting at least once a day for over 3 months. I even woke up in the middle of the night and asked Cyndi if we had blogged that day. The answer was "no" with an irritated sigh added on.

Anywho, thank you to everyone who reads this blog and keeps us inspired to keep posting. We continue to have fun with it as well as with keeping up with everyone else's blogs. Now, since I'm a geek, here is our blog by the number:
