Three years.

I started this little blog three years ago.

It has seen us through five moves, six semesters, four apartments and many many changes. Although there were some blog breaks because life picked up speed, I've met some amazing people, collaborated on some great projects and crafted my hardest throughout the years.

If you are one of the few readers who stuck through my bipolar posting, you've read about my dreams and wishes for the future. True, I had no idea what was really in store for us. Life turned out much better than I could have expected. One chapter of my life has closed (hurrah!) and I am so excited to see what's coming.

As I thought back on the last three years that Hello Hydrangea and I have been together I realized that I needed to celebrate this anniversary in a very special way. With this new beginning I thought it fitting to clean up our look. I've finally reached a point where I know what I love to do in life... and I get to do it every day.

I'm also cleaning up my focus. I hate to admit it, but there have been times when I've worked on a project for the sole purpose of posting it... and then threw it away. I've realized that life goes too fast to not  focus on what makes you happy, which is why I want to start over with a new approach to the reason that I blog.

To all of my new followers - read that sign up there at the top y'all. (I'm a bonified Texas citizen now so I can say that.)

Basically, all I want to do with this post is say  welcome. Welcome to my past readers, welcome to my new readers, and welcome to this new time of life. Let's see what the next three years bring!
