Once I read the title to this post, the tears immediately welled up in my eyes and I could not make myself read further, until today. <br />That being said, I am so excited to continue reading over in your new/joint space. You guys have been blowing me away over there. You are so insanely good! And I love that you make such an amazing team. God bless you entirely today, my sweet + beautiful friend. xoChellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380504004257948038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036604881691748652.post-34310095636752231682011-10-04T12:59:10.625-05:002011-10-04T12:59:10.625-05:00Aww congratulations on your new journey, together!...Aww congratulations on your new journey, together!

It's all about what works for you, Jeff, and G -- all of you are going to gain so much from this change. <br /><br />With that being said, I'll miss Living The Swell Life! You, along with Bethany were the very first ones who introduced me to the wonders of blogging. And, honestly I can't thank you enough for it! I will come back when I need recipes, pretty pictures, and diys!<br /><br />Will follow you over, Jess, at the Swell Life! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036604881691748652.post-24227921193878795232011-09-10T10:08:57.551-05:002011-09-10T10:08:57.551-05:00Living the Swell Life was one of the very first bl...Living the Swell Life was one of the very first blogs I read nearly three years ago and I have found so many more through your wonderful posts and followers.

Good for you for taking the steps you need to take for you. It's not easy! I think a lot about ending my own blog. Totally hear you on the nagging responsibility! Anyway, thank you, and please know that you've touched many readers-- even if we're just lurkers!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11865039944343813603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036604881691748652.post-7207871751367560872011-09-09T07:35:02.973-05:002011-09-09T07:35:02.973-05:00I completely understand!

Good for you for making the decision that is right for you and your family.

It's been lovely following your blog this summer and I wish I'd discovered it sooner. Will follow over at Jeff Loves Jess and enjoy all those lovely images.

It makes complete sense to do all your creative online existence in one place! <br /><br />But I can still understand the emotion that comes with ending this chapter--even if its just trimming it down to a managable amount and moving it to another place...it's still a spot that's meant so very much! Sidenote: Gabe is trying to convince me just to get a complete webdesign and move from my current format...and I'm even emotional about that! :)<br /><br />Living The Swell Life was the very first blog I ever read...and four years later, I will still wholeheartedly say that it is my favorite. :) For me, it was the first blog that made me feel that I, too, could be a creative girl...and reaching waaaay back into my mind 3.5 years ago, I believe it was the reason I started my own blog. I always left your blog feeling refreshed and inspired and encouraged. And I thought that if I could feel even 1/10th of that by trying to see my own life through a more documented, creative eye...I might be a much happier girl. And I am! So thank you so much for all the inspiration you've shared in this space, and for opening up your life to everyone!<br /><br />Anyway, I'm blathering. And I'm not trying to write a eulegy to Living the Swell Life. :) But I'm just sayin', it has been lovely. And I am so excited for everything that is to come for you and Jeff in the photog world! :)bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317376256234568601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036604881691748652.post-22917545617328095412011-09-09T00:07:24.291-05:002011-09-09T00:07:24.291-05:00I am so happy that I was able to attend your party...I am so happy that I was able to attend your party for strangers, get to know you, and learn about great places to visit.
