One big key to a happy life is finding a healthy balance in everything we do. I am sure we are all working on being better at this, I know I sure am. I started this blog as a way to stay connected to my family back in San Diego while I attended school at the University of Utah. I rarely used it, I think I have about five posts from back then? haha
It wasn't until I got married that I really started using my blog. I thought it was such a fun way to document your life, and a way to share what we were up to for family and friends that didn't live nearby.
Sometimes I have blogged a lot, other times not so much. Usually that was reflected in what was going on in my life. I pretty much stopped blogging for two months when I was finishing my Bachelor's degree and getting ready for graduation, and recently I didn't blog much because I was searching for a second job. I feel like I have always been pretty good at prioritizing what is important. Real life needs to take priority over the blog.
While this blog started off as a personal family blog, it slowly transitioned into a representation of posts that reflected my interests. It has transitioned
into many different things over the years - sometimes I feel like it is constantly
changing. This doesn't necessarily bother me, it is my space for
creativity, however lately I have been feeling a pull towards a more balanced, simplified lifestyle. Going back to the origins of what this blog was supposed to be all about. Maybe you noticed that last week.
I have always enjoyed style and fashion, and have truly benefited personally from exploring my personal style on my blog. I feel like I have really come to know my style, something I feel I wasn't really aware of before I started blogging. I don't plan on taking fashion related posts completely out of my blog - I mean, lets be serious here I LOVE clothes :), but I do feel like my personal style posts are something I have explored, benefited from, and that I have completed that chapter.
I want to transition back to the origins of this blog. It is supposed to be about the "crowley party" - a blog about me and my husband and our life together. I will still post and share about my interests on my blog. I just feel like right now it is a blog about my interests with a dash of my family, and I want it to be the other way around. I want the main focus of my blog to be about my family, and then have my interests and passions sprinkled in between it all.
I feel like the changes will be pretty subtle and nothing too drastic, you will just see more of me and trevor on the blog like it used to be. My blog has taken so many twists and turns over the last couple years, and I appreciate all of you who come to read the thoughts I have, and the pictures I share.
So here is to going back to where it all started. A personal lifestyle blog about me and my husband and our life. We think life should be enjoyed, and we think life should be a party! :) You can stick around if you want a taste of that.
