Snap Greene HeadshotHey all! It’s the first blogoversary of my “Moving Happiness Home™” moving blog and all I can say is wow! Wow! Wow! It’s been so much fun writing about moving, California and going green that I wanted to celebrate my first moving blog anniversary with you! Around this time last year I remember a photoshoot with NorthStar Moving® to promote my moving blog and the green moving company sector of the moving process. The photoshoot and moving blog was even featured in Direction Magazine! I’ve decided to highlight some of my favorite moving blog sections for my moving  blog anniversary. Getting to write about NorthStar Moving® moving the stars and my favorite places to move to in the Los Angeles area are just some things making blogging a blast!

If you haven’t had a chance to move around my moving blog, let me give you a quick tour! My home page features the newest posts I’ve written as well as a sidebar with an awesome bubble game, a donation corner for Claire, my brother’s Twitter feed as well as NorthStar Moving’s® social media outlets! If you’re looking for quick moving and packing tips, look no further than my Tumblr Tips (also featured on the sidebar). What’s awesome about the sidebar on my moving blog? It stays with you on every page and moving blog post.

Being green is something NorthStar Moving® and I have in common!

CaliFun™ features posts about California (the best state to move to). This part of the moving blog showcases holiday events in the LA area as well as ways to get there. City Snapshots and Pop-arazzi™ feature cities to move to and the best moving company to get you to them. Happy Home likes to give you advice about “Moving Happiness Home™.” Go Green snaps to NorthStar Moving’s® “Red on the Outside, Green on the Inside” mentality. And what moving blog doesn’t have a tips section? Instead of writing moving and packing tips, I’ve decided to name my moving blog tips section Snappy Tips™ because my name is Snap! Get it? Get it? Good! Certainly last but not least I end at Claire’s Corner™:

Claire’s Corner™

Claire gets to document her exciting vacations and fundraisers for her foundation “Claire’s Place Foundation!” Battling Cystic Fribrosis and constantly keeping a smile on her face, Claire is a real superhero. I can’t justify how amazing she is, so you should read about Claire yourself. If you’d like to donate to Claire, here’s the link! Donate in honor of my moving blog anniversary?

City Snapshots On My Moving Blog

City Snapshots is a my moving blog category featuring awesome cities to get moving to. Whether traveling or moving, my moving blog focuses Los Angeles cities as well as international places!

From Westwood to Santa Clarita to Portland and even to the Dominican Republic and Paris it’s so much fun to write about cities for my moving blog! I love the beach, LA, traveling and I love to write, so this category is perfect for me. Searching Flickr for pics and getting creative about cities for my moving blog moves happiness into my day! I’ve also learned a lot about where I live through my moving blog. I never would have thought Downtown LA had a Purple Patrol to keep the area safe and clean!

Moving Blog Tips

Do It Yourself MovingEvery blog needs great tips for its readers and since I have a green moving blog, I’ve focused on the greening and moving processes. From Do It Yourself Moving to gift tips and recipes for the holidays, I write about all occasions focusing on the home. After the Japan earthquake and tsunami in March 2011, I wrote a special moving blog post about earthquake preparedness. My moving blog is into safety too!
