Welcome to the blog!
Six years ago I was walking the sidewalks of Downtown
Mesa, lamenting the fact that far too many people under-appreciate our great
city. Soon after that, I Heart Mesa was
born. Marily and I blogged at
iheartmesa.com for three and a half years.
We enjoyed spreading a little community cheer. However, life happened. Babies were born, children grew, different
needs needed to be met, and for two quick years, I Heart Mesa lay dormant. Never really wanting to be finished, we are
back at it, this time with even more life experience and a bigger and better
site, iheartaz.com.
We might not be polished to perfection. We take being told we are "down to
earth" as one of the highest compliments.
We don't profess that we can do it all.
But, we do want to keep spreading the love of our community and our
great state. Our goal is to get more
people to truly enjoy being in Arizona. We
live in a dessert with browns and tans and lots of dirt and pokey things. But, there is so much beauty and enjoyment
here! Our theory: if we can get people to have a little more
Arizona pride, the well-being of our entire state will improve.
We are the great-granddaughters of those that helped to
settle this great state and we are excited to show you just what Arizona is all
about.
Love,
Kathryn and Marily
