1 Year of Blogging!

-

 Hello, everyone!

A little while ago I was scrolling through the blog and I found our very first blog post - it is titled ‘Jack’ with a photo of Amelia’s dog. We posted that blog entry along with an entry called ‘Pet Homelessness’ on none other than March 22, 2020. This is the day we published it, but we started working on the blog a month or two before. This means that Amelia and I have been officially blogging for one year! 

On the day that we decided we wanted to make a blog, Amelia had borrowed a book on how to start a successful blog from the library. She showed it to me and told me here idea to start a blog. We filled out sheets and sheets of paper organizing all of our blog ideas, names, post ideas, categories and taking notes of some things we had gathered from the book. We eventually decided on the name Live Life Random, LLR for short.

Later that summer when we went on a camping trip with some of our friends from church. We learned about Molly Brown (you should research her, she survived the sinking of the Titanic) and when we visited a fish hatchery we learned some cool things about fish. We started brainstorming some ideas of posts we wanted our blog to feature and what we wanted our blog to look like. (This is what we do when we are together, we brainstorm 😂)

When we got home from the camping trip we were super excited to get started. After talking to our parents about it, we were ready to start a blog! We had already decided we wanted to use blogger (since it is what my mom uses for our family blog) so all we had to do was set it up! 


And here we are! One year and one hundred and fifteen posts later.

I hope you enjoyed our little story time today! We are so grateful for those of you reading and that we are actually blogging for someone!

Love,

LLR

She Moved To Texas

 Hi everyone, Amelia here today. You might have seen the list of links on our side bar: Well one of those blogs is  She Moved to Texas , a blog about Love, Loss & Horses. I just recently discovered this blog in late March, and since have followed it continuously.  Lauren Mauldin’s blog is so inspiring to equestrians and (ehem) normal people alike. She has a dappled grey gelding named Poet, and you can follow her through the course of their relationship in a journey of joy and pain. This blog has so many stories that make you say ‘Wait a minute, I’m not the only one’, stories that make you laugh, and stories that make you cry.  It’s so inspiring to read about a fellow equestrian that has suffered so much and still finds refuge in the world of horses. Lauren’s blog is so amazing and real that when I finish reading an article I just have to sit for a moment and just say ‘wow’.  I definitely suggest reading  Letter To My Younger Equestrian Self , as it gave...
