Sharing a monthly Infographic Update was one of my favorite things I committed to this year. I was super impressed with myself for following through in January, February and March, but April kind of derailed me. Before I knew it, we were a few weeks in and I hadn't written much down to help me keep track. Then it was time to share May and I felt like I couldn't work on it until April's was finished. It just snowballed from there. I decided the only way to really get myself on track was to illustrate the numbers in June and stop feeling guilty about April and May. June was {for obvious reasons} my favorite month to compile yet. And I've come up with a new system to help collect data for the following months and *hopefully* I won't fall behind again. In case you didn't put two and two ...

March by the Numbers
When I last left you, I assumed I would be home last Monday and Tuesday while my family was at the beach. I had tons of work to do and just couldn't figure out how to take off the entire week. I anticipated getting blog posts scheduled, design work caught up and a vlog filmed for last Friday. Instead, my bosses encouraged me to take some work with me and not spend so much time driving back and forth. I'm guessing you know that I jumped on that offer and the blog was a little neglected because of it. Hopefully, I'll have an extra post (or two) to make up for it and we'll all have to be okay with March's recap being a few days late! March was busy, but so much fun! We added three road trips to our calendar: Atlanta, Chattanooga and Gulf Shores (to be blogged this week!). We got all sorts ...
January by the Numbers
After designing the back of our Christmas card this year, I decided that I was in love with the infographic and that it needed to make a monthly appearance on the blog. January isn't the most exciting month, so I'm hoping other months will be more interesting to read, but either way - it was really fun to put together! The other thing I really wanted to attempt this year was a "photo a day" challenge. I attempted to do this the last several years, but inevitably I managed to skip a day along the way. I jumped on the hashtag bandwagon and since our theme for this year is "make things happen", I thought #tazandbellyhappen was perfect for 2015. I'm pleasantly surprised to say that I managed to take a photo every day and I'm hoping I can continue to remember to continue that trend the rest ...
