Post 4th of July Roundup and June Stats

I hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th of July.  We had a wonderful time at our house where we hosted a BBQ and enjoyed some free time with family and friends.  That is one thing I don’t think we get to do enough of, is just being with those that we love.

This past month we added two new members to the Money Life NetworkRemodeling This Life and Sense to Save. They both have great writing, wonderful personalities and will help take the Money Life Network to the next level.  Check them out – you won’t be disappointed!  Welcome you guys!

This was a big month for Bible Money Matters. We switched the blog from blogger.com where we started back in February, to become a self-hosted wordpress blog. I’m extremely glad to have made that transition, and I think it will mean some awesome changes for the blog in the coming weeks. You may already have noticed some changes in the design and functionality. Along the same lines, if you notice some problems over the next few weeks (broken links, missing pages, etc), please let me know and I’ll do my best to fix it.

I also started a second blog this month – Quicktofit.com.  Quick to Fit is a health and fitness blog focusing on my journey to lose weight, get back into shape and eat  healthier.  Right now I’m working on the 100 pushup challenge, a program where you work towards doing 100 pushups in a row.  I’m in week three of the 6 week program, but this week promises to be the toughest yet.   Please check it out

June was a crazy month, so I thought I’d do a quick recap of this site’s stats for the month, the biggest referrers and then do a quick roundup of some of the great posts I’ve read this week.
