HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!

Wow, we never expected to still be here 19 years after P&P’s inception but we’re thrilled we are! Amazing for sure! Could be a record for blog longevity. Anyway, it’s sure blowing our minds.

Here are some fun statistics:

To date, we’ve had 40 different Fillies!!

P&P went live in 2007

Only Pam Crooks, Karen Kay, and Linda Broday remain from Day 1.

8,940 Posts

We’ve celebrated new books, posted delicious and often unusual recipes, holidays, giveaways, historical tidbits, historical figures, western life, personal glimpses of us, crafts, and fun things we and all our guest authors have done. Followers never know what they’ll find when they come over. Maybe the secret to our longevity is the varied content. Whatever it is that draws readers, we’re so very, very grateful.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING US!!

Without you all, there would be no need for us. We’d just be twiddling our thumbs while we grow old. We’re just so grateful for our good fortune in having such supporting readers and authors.

Life offers us so many choices each day and success depends on which ones we choose. We’re not taking this birthday lightly. Or your interest. We plan to keep traveling this road with you as long as we can. You can count on that.

Today, we’re cheering at the top of our lungs. Then tomorrow, we’ll get back to work.

Onward to next year and our big 20th birthday celebration blowout. Gonna be a humdinger so stick around.

  6. What a great milestone!! So happy I found this site!! I love interacting with the authors here!! I’ve learned about many different things from each of you ladies!!

  11. Way to go! 19 years and counting. Thank you fillies for the interesting items posted as well as bringing things to the table that make me think how my life has evolved, the people I’ve met, places I’ve been and things I’ve done. So many memories!

  23. Y’all are appreciated for the fun, education, and fellowship we readers find on your website. I have always enjoyed history (and doing genealogy), but I am amazed at the fascinating insights and information you authors discover and share. Thanks!

    • That’s really interesting to hear, Catherine. We all love history and love sharing what we run across. We love to teach you new things! Thank you so much for being a faithful follower of P&P.

  40. Congratulations on 19 years of giving enjoyment to your followers. I don’t know exactly how long I have been following you, but it has to be pretty close to when you started. I retired from the library in 2010 and had started following you before that I think. I am so glad I found P & P. It is a site I try to visit every day, even if it is in the wee hours of the morning. I hope you are around for a long time more.

    • Patricia, I remember you did start close to the date we began. Maybe even from the beginning. You’ve been here a long time! Thank you so much for your support and love!

  42. Ha;;y Birthday/Anniversary! Tanks for all your stories, fun times and all you have done. Here’s to anther 19 years!
