Travis and I have been talking about blogging together FOREVER. We made a good attempt at journaling our summers in 2009 - Travis lived in Decatur that summer (awaiting Greek school) and I lived in Charleston (completing a church internship). Between the 2 of us, we wrote around 10 entries (that's being generous)...
As we progressed in our relationship, blogging among our friends also became more and more trendy - trendy in a good way, like "topics trending" on Twitter.
I have several blogs that I love to read - old friends' blogs, colleagues' blogs about the PC(USA), and cooking/homemaking blogs. Travis loves to read about Aggie athletics and usually reads the blog entries his dad sends him about new restaurant reviews or recipes. So, even though our individual blogs fell by the wayside, we always seemed to have ideas for posts, thoughts we needed to write out, or recipes that we were dying to share with others.
This blog has been in the brainstorming process for close to a year.
Here, we hope to accomplish 2 things: First, we want to record events, conversations, and cooking adventures as a way to stay in touch with each other, our families, and our larger communities. Second, we want to undertake a project together - to hold each other accountable for writing, to process life in new ways, and to figure out new ways to communicate.
2 people trying to keep up with 1 blog shouldn't be too hard, right? :)
