{It is time...}

I am sorry to announce, but I have been thinking about it for a long time. I am going PRIVATE!!
It is time to get my blog off the internet for the whole world to pull up when they google something.

I have been so happy to share this with all of you, and if you would like an invite please leave a comment here or email me.

I know there are a few onlookers that are sisters or friends of my friends. Please feel free to introduce yourself, and I would love to invite you. I am always excited to meet new people and make a new friend.

Blogging has opened up a whole new world for me. I enjoy sitting down, and sharing a part of my life. I also love that it will be a history for me family(I will have it printed at the end of the year.) I have noticed though that our blog pulls up on google quite often. For instance, I wrote a quote from Jon and Kate plus 8, and when people googled that, up came our blog.

I will leave my profile open so that you can contact me in the event that I miss you on the invite, or it doesn't work.

I will leave the blog open until August 16th. My blog is being used at a presentation at BYU on the 15th. After that it is going PRIVATE!!

I can't wait to hear from you, and I will add you to the list of invites.

This is going to surprise you, but while looking at blogs I came accross yours and realized that I use to babysit Jonathon. I'm quit sure he won't remember me but he will remember my family. My name is Nanette Wyatt and I grew up in Bishop Swensons ward and had him for my seminary teacher and loved him and his family. It's crazy where we all go in the crazy adventure called life. You have a cute family and I enjoy reading about your crafty home decore. Oh I forgot my Parents are Mark and Louise NUZMAN from Spanish Fork. I would like to be invited to your blog and would like to get in touch with Jerald and Loreen and learn more of where Boris is. I dated him a few times 1000 years ago it seems. I have 6 kids and three are married with their own family with one daughter in law going to medical school as we speak!!!! CRAZY thank heaven for the gospel. Thank you and please email me. Nanette my email wyatt002@gmail.com
Hope to talk to you soon.

I would be sad not to be able to keep in touch and see what is going on. I need to get ours private even though its not being used for a presentation I just know it can be scary!!

Krysta said...

I really don't need to comment. You already know you can't leave me out! :)

Adrienne Hansen said...

Andrea,
I really don't know why I haven't commented yet on your blog. Back in March when I had Jaden I sent out a little announcement email to my friends and family. Jonathan was on the list and he wrote back and told me to visit your blog. I've been visiting ever since. Your kids are so, so darling and I can't believe how big Jex is! I remember when you were expecting him back in the days of Al's! Your house is so cute also-I want a duplicate of it! Haha! Seriously, you guys are awesome. I'll comment from now on, I promise! :) Send me an invite at adedrie@gmail.com. Also, you can check out our little guy at joshandade.blogspot.com!

It's hard to go private because you miss out on friends finding you and reconnecting with them... but I have to agree with your decision! I keep mine private just for the peace of mind of posting about my children. We'd love an invite!

Hey Swenson's--Family First, right? I'm sure you know we need to be on the invite list for your blog! By the way, Andrea, I love the yellow flowers in your post about decorating. I am using yellow in the new kitchen and have decided it is such a happy color! Sounds like you had a great birthday, now on to the next one this week. Mom was here for a few days and was working on Jex's present. Post a photo of him with it for Tanner to see--he is intrigued. Love Ya-Amy

Your family is darling and congrats on graduation. I'd love to keep in contact with you and your family. My email is milliethomsen@gmail.com. I have a blog too. I guess I'm learning. Your blog is very high tech--mine is just getting by. Mine is private also so send me your email.
Love, Millie

Kelly A. said...

Hi! I am friend of Sara Capener's and I randomly clicked on your blog once and I must admit that I have been peeking at it since then. I LOVE your inspirational thoughts and ideas!! I have gone back and forth and back and forth about whether or not to leave you a comment, but I finally decided to introduce myself! I would love to continue to view your blog if you feel comfortable with that. My email is kellygirl562@hotmail.com My blog is also private but I can send you an invitation if you would like so you can put a name to a face, although my blog is no where near as cute as yours :)

The Painters said...

I have enjoyed peeking over at your blog from Lindsay's and would love to continue that if you are okay with sending me an invite! Your posts are always so creative and inspirational, and I'm looking forward to your new home decor/tips/etc.. blog! biskuit83@msn.com

Donna's Next Chapter Art said...

Andrea, isn't it wonderful so many people enjoy your blog? I'd like to be invited to the private blog, if possible. You've taught me so many parenting and decorating ideas that I share with my daughters. Your blog is also one of the most visually appealing websites I've seen. Best to you and your family... whatever you do. fint10@sbcglobal.net
