Happy Birthday to Me!

Well....not me personally but today,







{Turns ONE!!!}


I can't believe it! It doesn't seem like a WHOLE YEAR has gone by! It has been an amazing year. Let's take a look back through The Photog Nazi's first year:


My Very First Blog Header! It definitely "needed something" so it took all of 5 days before I tweaked it and came up with this:

Oooo! Pink and black! LOVED IT!! This stayed around for some time. It wasn't until July that I came up with a new header:
This was a fave of mine. It had the Chucks, and the ★star★, a cupcupcake Pictures, Images and Photoscake and a cameracamera Pictures, Images and Photos! It had the pink and black too. I loved it. It was and still is one of my most fave headers ever. It came Christmas time though and I HAD to have a new Holidayish design! Enter:
My Christmas header*. I thought my little Christmas theme was SO cute! {In fact I will most likely bring this header back next Christmas.} But of course the holidays come to an end. I wanted something new, something that had little bits and pieces of ME. I had a vision. I had a really hard time getting it out in a header though, but the closest I could come was this:
This lasted all of ONE day before I changed it and went {K.I.S.S.} style on my header.
Alas, I could only do {K.I.S.S.} for so long! A week later, I revamped my header and came up with a Springy design:
I tried to work in Busy.B{Custom}Designs. But in all honesty this header just wasn't ME. Hearts? Yea uh, not so much. 21 days later I went back to simple:
I think there was something I had liked about keeping it simple, I wanted my writing to be the focus, not my blog design.

I just realized that the next design got lost somewhere along the way.  How sad! That header will be missed, and never forgotten!
EDITED! EDITED!! LOOK what I found!

I found a screenshot of a previous blog design, and look it's the missing header. :D

Next we have one of the most recent headers:

I'm not sure how long this header stayed around it wasn't very long before I switched it up and tweaked it until I came up with this:

 This was my most recent header! I'm still lovin' it and only tweaked it ever so slightly to come up with my current header:
I also went back to keeping it simple.

Who knows what else is in store for ye' old Photog Nazi header?! Only the next year will tell! :D

Before I go of COURSE I have to look back on my very first post EVER!!


"Okay, so everyone, well not EVERYone, but a lot of people have suggested I start a blog. Mostly to keep up with the funny things Hailey says, but for other uses as well. After my post on facebook yesterday, I had even more requests, so here's my blog.

Here you will find all sorts of Renwick randomness. Everything from pics I want to share, to funny stories, and God knows what else.

It will be run by me. The photography Nazi herself, the mother unit, aka Brianne.

I hope it fulfills it's purpose."



Awww! Isn't it cute?! I believe that my blog has indeed fulfilled it's purpose. It took a few months for me to get into the rythym of blogging, but now that I have it has been a lifesaver. It has kept me sane, and through it I have learned so much!

I had hoped to reach the triple digits in followers along with my 200th post at the same time I hit my one year bloggy anniversary. However it didn't come to pass. BUT if I posted all of my unfinished drafts, {all 13 of them} I would be at 206 posts! And I am only a meger 6 followers away from the big 1 0 0. {I was 5 away but recently lost a follower.}

I had actually planned a mega, super, blow your face off post for these achievements and milestones, along with my VERY FIRST EVER giveaway, but because I wasn't able to fulfill said achievements it just wasn't to be**.

*The fonts used in this header have stuck with me, and have been used in every header since!
**I still plan on doing a giveaway for when I reach 100 followers so keep your eyes peeled!
