Well, my last blog entry was inspiring... for me at least. There was a comment left by a girl named Carrie. Who is Carrie you ask? Honestly, I had no idea. My wife later let on that it is one of her friends. This is how I found out.
Me: Hey some random chick left a comment on my blog. That's cool. I have no idea who she is.
Her: Some random chick?
Me: Yeah some girl named Carrie. She lives in Utah. I guess she has a blog of her own I'm looking at the pictures right now.
Her: WHAT?!? Some strange woman is sending you pictures over the Internet? Nobody leaves a message on MY man's blog like that. Let me see a picture of that ..... [tearing the laptop from my hands examining the picture] Oh, that's just my friend Carrie from back home!
Ok, ok... maybe that was a little over dramatized. It was more like:
Me: Who the heck is Carrie Burt?
Her: That's my friend from back home!
See TOTALLY boring. So I went with the other version.
Anyway. I decided to check out her blog and was reading a post about how she just joined the Air force. BUT there was something in this blog that caught my eye. It was this sentence:
"Just think about all the awesome blogs I'm going to get to write! All of my decisions in life are based on whether it would make a good blog or not."
Now THAT is gratuitous blogging and an embodiment of everything that a Blog Snob is. So in Carrie's honor I developed an official Blog Snob Award. She is the first recipient of this high honor. Go check out her Blog.... She has absolutely no shame. I love it :D.

Look for future Blog Snob awards. Maybe your blog will earn one some day and you can post the award on your blog with pride. I will be awarding them every...... Every time I feel like it of course!

Oh, I have never been more proud of any award! Thank you so much! Not only do I get this award, but I have 10 official comments on one single blog! Life doesn't get better than this.
I got a comment from Mandy a while ago and I was like, "Who the heck is Jason Young? Must be another admirer. I have so many. I mean, check out my blog. Who could resist, really?" Then I checked the link and found a picture of my old friend Mandy! I guess I always forget that girls' names change after marriage so it took me a minute.
Anyway, you guys have the most adorable family even if it is all internet lies. Your kids are darling!
I hope you might consider mine in the future. I don't even plan activities unless I think they will look good on my blog...insert sarcasm.
It is definitely a lifestyle.
