the burchard bunch

Ok - I have to say that I was pretty sure that no one other than my sister, my husband, and maybe three other people actually read my blog. At lunch the other day, I found out that you can track information about how many people hit your site, and how they got there. I thought this had to be the coolest thing ever invented! I have had almost 2800 hits in the past 6 months that I have been writing these ridiculous and pretty random posts about our lives. I didn't know anyone was even interested in what we're doing.... I have to say, I am amazed! Although it doesn't tell me exactly who is hitting the site, it does tell me things like, the referring site (thanks honey! and thanks La'Rae!) and how many of you are returning visitors or first timers. It tells me things like if you used a Mac (gotta love the Mac!) what state you're from and how long you stayed on the site. Again, I am amazed and completely confused as to how it all actually works - but who cares.... it's awesome! I have a challenge - if you're brave enough! I would love for everyone who reads this blog to leave a comment... not every time (unless you want to, and then of course, comment away!) - just this once, so I can see who's part of our extended family and who we can count on to be praying for us while we are are this incredible journey. Also, if there is something you want to know about us - ask away - I'll do my best to answer if I can.
