The Joy Blog Turns 2!

Girl in Garden with Fountain | The Joy Blog Turns 2! // WWW.THEJOYBLOG.NET

Two years ago, I started this blog. I bailed on my old one, that was all about nothing really, and started The Joy Blog. It would be centrally focused on joyful living. After a few months, I realized what I wanted to write about the most. It was the thing that brought me a large portion of the joy I feel in life. So, I started throwing gardening posts into the mix now and then. Little by little, gardening kind of took the lead, and now it's about gardening, lifestyle AND joyful living (in that order). 

Birthdays tend to make me nostalgic remembering the year before, so let's take a look at some of what has made this blog what it is today!
