Whitney from Much Ado About Jax, that is. Whitney was my Solidarity Sister for December’s challenge.

Solidarity Sisters is run by Susannah of Simple Moments Stick. You sign up, get paired up with another blogger, then you get a new challenge each week to chat back and forth about, helping and encouraging each other along the way. I really enjoyed getting the know Whitney and, as I’ve been blogging for ages and she’s fairly new, I had the pleasure of offering her some tips that I’ve learned over the years.

When I saw who I was paired with I was immediate a happy camper: I figured Jax had to refer to Jacksonville (it does) and we love Jacksonville. From the weekend we spent at the Jacksonville Zoo for my birthday a while back, the annual trip over for Ancient City Con each summer, and the amazing restaurants and shopping, Jacksonville is one of our favorite local getaways. (They’re also getting an IKEA in 2017, so much closer to us, even in Thomasville, than the Atlanta or Orlando stores.)

Whitney and her family call Jacksonville home and you definitely want to check out her blog if you want local event information because she’s got it! In addition, she blogs about “family inspiration, family fashion, diy projects and much more” (in her own words). Her most recent posts have been about organization and how the whole family pitches in. And even though she’s a relatively new blogger, check out her archives for some really great DIYs like her Dresser Rehab from October!

So head on over and show Whitney some love and if you want to connect with other bloggers, think about signing up for the next Solidarity Sister challenge. Sign-ups for the February challenge are going on now!

Aaaaand 10 points if you recognize the HIMYM reference in the title.
