Here’s another installment of YouBlog- where I introduce you to one of your fellow blogmies. Remember the goal is to get to know each other! Many of you readers/commenters were born to be friends- I just know it. And I’m out to prove it!

This is gonna be fun. Lara’s blog is super cute and so is she! She’s a Georgia mom, which you know always has a special place in my heart. I love people from that state. Like my family.

Seriously, I think you’re going to like her. She’s sweet and cute and honest. I have a soft spot for bloggers who are really honest. And that’s Lara.

I like her. And I like birthdays. So that’s why this post about her 41st Birthday is my favorite. It’s a good intro to Lara (in case you aren’t already reading her) because it kinda recaps, well, her entire life. I think you will dig it.

So get to know Lara today. Leave a comment and tell her AnnieBlogs sent ya.

How we doing on YouBlog so far? It’s honestly my favorite day of the week. I love getting to see you guys get to know each other. It’s a lifelong truth that I love watching my friends be friends with my friends. Especially on Thursdays. Apparently.

Do you wanna be featured one week as the YouBlog-ger? Cause I would love it!! Just email me at annieblogs [at] gmail [dot] com and put “YouBlog” in the subject line. Or leave a comment. I don’t know… just get in touch with me.

Here’s our friend Kaela.

I’ve just started reading her blog, but I am digging it. Here address is “willing to risk ready to go”. I think that says so much about a person. That’s the kind of girl that I can connect with and learn from. So I’m over there fairly often reading her thoughts.

This post is gonna bless you. For realz. I teared up the first time I read it. Because it simply reminded me that God takes care of us in amazing ways. It’s a post called Beautiful Paint.

So swing over to Kaela’s place. Tell her AnnieBlogs says hey. And that I kinda wanna be like her.

Becca is a fairly regular attender to this rodeo we like to call AnnieBlogs. And I love her rodeo as well. Gracious, you must go check out her blog, if for no other reason than to see her darling family and equally darling header.

But don’t just love the book [blog] for it’s cover [header]. Becca has got some content that is surely worth your time. In fact, my favorite post is where she explains about her family ministering to the folks in inner-city Atlanta. (The giveaway in this post is closed, by the way, but I wanted to feature this post anyways.)

And I know you know this, but I definitely have a soft spot for that state of Georgia. A big ole soft spot. So to meet and know people who are investing deeply in a city that I love, I salute them.

So Becca, and Stanley Clan, I salute you- for loving Atlanta more than you love yourselves. That city will never be the same because of you. Believe it.

Go show them some love and offer some prayers, fellow blogmies, and tell Becca thanks…. for me.

Hey you! Yeah you, blogger. I want to feature YOUR BLOG! So just email me at annieblogs [at] gmail [dot] com and put “YouBlog” in the subject line. Or leave a comment. I don’t know… just get in touch with me.

Today I want to introduce you to Victoria.

Seriously. What a name. So fancy and beautiful. I actually got to meet her last weekend and she was super sweet. I mean, one meeting doesn’t make people b-fries, and I don’t know her super well, but what I do know of her is quite fancy and wonderful. Victoria blogs over at Let The Son Shine and her writing is absolutely lovely and inspiring.

Here we are last weekend. We were totally born to be friends. Look! I’m wearing a super cute posy pin. More on that particular accessory tomorrow.

I particularly enjoy when Victoria writes poetry. This post called REJOICE really stands out to me. A friend asked me recently if I ever write poetry. My answer is that I do sometimes for fun, but I’m not near refined enough to be a poet. Victoria, on the other hand, is for certain a poet. It’s absolutely lovely.

So hop on over to her place and say hi- tell her AnnieBlogs sends her sincerest regards. [I mean, that sounds fancy, right?]

First of all. Just look at Erin. Oh. My. Cuteness. Just seeing her sweet face makes me want to be friends with her so bad. Doesn’t she just look uber-inviting and friendly and awesome? I. KNOW. I thought the same thing.

I also love reading her blog. It’s so real and honest in ways that I’m personally not brave enough to write about. But she does it beautifully and with huge amounts of class and humor and humility and spirituality. Yeah, I kinda like her blog.

I absolutely love this post she wrote about comparing yourself to other people. I mean, seriously, who doesn’t deal with this? It’s worth the read. Head over there, read up, and tell her AnnieBlogs sent ya!

Gah. I’m enjoying YouBlog mucho. It’s kinda like having a party at my house and y’all all coming over. But bring your own chair for the porch- I only have 5. And a tree swing.

Oh, you know Sarah.

She’s one of my best bloggy friends. And best real life friends. And hello sassy picture! Good-ness Sarah!! Wowsa.

And she is a GOOD. WRITER. And a better friend. If that’s possible. I mean, maybe it’s a tie. I don’t know. I just know that Sarah and her family mean a whole lot to me.

She wrote an amazing post about having faith and it has encouraged me over and over again. I hope that you will read it and I know it will speak to your heart.

Hop on over to Sassy Sarah’s blog and leave her a comment- tell her I said hi. Trust me, you’re going to want to read it all- so settle in, grab something cool to drink, and get to reading!

I love Andrea’s blog. You may have seen it before, or maybe not. But I hope today that you will take a hop over there and check out what she’s got going on.

Andrea used to live in Nepal and I absolutely love her post about a Hindu wedding. I totally love all the bright colors in the pictures. And I love Andrea’s heart for her friends and for the people of Nepal.

Makes me glad that we get to know her here.

So swing by her blog, leave a comment and tell you I sent ya. She’s darlin and you are totally going to love her.

Meet Kim.

Kim is a super cute friend of mine from San Antonio, Texas. I can only hope that she has experienced the finest thing San Antonio has to offer- Taco Garage. It is a Mexican restaurant that Melanie took a few of us to in August and I can’t help but long for it every day now and then.

How does every conversation of mine end up pointing to Mexican food?

Anyways. Back to Kim.

Kim blogs over at Kamp KK. Here’s a great post about where the blog title came from. I think you’ll really enjoy it. And she’s in a book club, which always screams KINDRED SPIRIT to me.

So head on over to Kamp KK and take a look around – it is summer, after all. Who doesn’t love camp (or kamp) in the summer? Read some of Kim’s blogs, tell her I sent ya, then email me so you can be the next YouBlog-ger!

So. I’m super dee-dooper excited about this new segment of AnnieBlogs.

Here’s the motivation for what is about to transpire:

1. You know me. You come here and read about my crazy life. You come to Nashville and we grab lunch.

2. I know a lot of you guys- you leave comments, we email back and forth. It’s cute, isn’t it?

But.

3. I want you to know each other. Because many of you would probably really like each other.

So. I’m gonna help you out.

Each week, I’m going to feature one of you bloggers/commenters- “YouBlog”, that’s what we’ll call it. That way, you guys can get to know each other and maybe be best friends forever. [I can dream, can't I?]

So the first blogger I’m going to feature is my sweet bloggy friend Joanna. [Catch the title there? JoannaBlogs? Funny, right?]

Joanna writes open and honestly and I enjoy her blog mucho. You probably recognize her name cause she is a faithful commenter.

This is my favorite post of her’s – Wordful Wednesday. It’s long, but totally worth the read. So swing over to her blog and tell her AnnieBlogs sent you. After all, y’all may end up being totally best friends forever.

Yay for YouBlog! I hope you guys think this is as fun as I do….
