5th Blogiversary!!!!

Well today is my 5 year blogiversary and I’m amazed that I’ve been at this for five years now.

Besides this blogging milestone for me, today is also my older daughter’s 6th birthday (Happy B-Day H.!!!)

My site would be nothing without all of you, so I first want to thank you all for your comments, encouragement and your contributions that have made MovieRob what it is today.

Since I’m a stat freak, here’s a bunch of interesting stats from the past year’s posts with comparisons to the previous three years:

My biggest accomplishment tho has still been to make so many great blogging friends, so a HUGE THANK YOU to all of you for helping me make this milestone.

In addition, I will be running a contest starting today and going until the end of the month that will allow some of you to FORCE me to watch whatever movie u choose. Stay tuned for another post shortly with details!

Here’s to another year of lots of fun movie reviews!!!
