You guys…it’s the four year anniversary of Blacksburg Belle! Yay!
First, I wanna say THANK YOU.
It’s because of you that I get to do work that I truly love. If you’re new or if you’ve been with me since the beginning (or somewhere in between), I appreciate you so very much. Every comment, email, tweet, like, share…they all mean everything to me. YOU have changed my life by being apart of my Blacksburg Belle world. Without you, this would still just be a dream.
To celebrate and have a little fun, I asked my husband if he’d play a game with me. He agreed.
It goes a little something like this: I came up with 10 questions related to Blacksburg Belle. I asked him each question and for every wrong answer, he got a plate of whipped soy cream in his face. Doesn’t that sound like the most awesome way to celebrate the anniversary of my business? I thought so. Watch below to see how he does:
Thanks for watching and continually supporting me. You’re the BEST.
If you want to make this anniversary extra special for me, I do have a favor to ask of you:
I’m teaching two new courses at creativeLIVE this November! They go together but they also work separately and I’m so crazy excited. I’m working on them day in and day out to make them the best they can possibly be. The titles are: Create Digital Products that Sell While You Sleep (November 10th and 11th) and Make Your Creative Business Uniquely Irresistible (November 12th).
I’d love for you to: 1) RSVP for the courses if you’re interested in joining me for FREE while it airs live. RSVP for Create Digital Products that Sell While You Sleep here and RSVP for Make Your Creative Business Uniquely Irresistible here. If you RSVP, you will get access to the workbooks for the courses for free as soon as they are complete. 2) Help me spread the word about my upcoming courses. Simply click on one of the tweets below to share on Twitter and/or share on Facebook. I would be soooooooo very grateful cause I’ve set a goal to have double the amount of live viewers this time around. I want to help as many creatives who need to earn more money as possible.

You are adorable. Great relationship that he knew 8 out of the 10, willing to get pie faced and he so loves you.
Thank you! I know…he’s a good one that actually pays attention to what I say. 🙂
April you are BEYOND adorable! Congrats on the blog anniversary – you have had such a huge impact on my own business and creative endeavors, and I cannot wait to see what new ways you come up with to inspire and encourage all of us to turn our creative dreams into reality! Here’s to many more years of Blacksburg Belle and many more whipped soy cream facials! <3
Thank you! Your comment has made my day. I’m overjoyed that I’ve been able to help you and your business.
So so funny! Hope you are well!
Thanks! 🙂
Oh my goodness! That video was incredible! I don’t think the smile fell off my face once.
Congrats on an amazing four years!! And here’s to many, many more!
Hahahahaha…I’m still smiling… 🙂
Thank you!

Can’t wait for your upcoming CL course. It is going to rock!
He was! I can’t believe he got so many right. I was totally impressed.
Thank you!!!
FUN post. Did your dogs get to lick his face? And I am all registered for your CreativeLive courses!
Hahahahahaha…no, but a skunk did come into the yard and eat up some of the remains. 🙂
Yay! So excited that you’ll be tuning into my creativeLIVE classes!
Ha! Love this idea for celebrating your anniversary! I don’t know that my hubby would enjoy the whole pie in the face thing. Your husband is a great sport! lol
I am already signed up for your courses and have gone back to the live audience page a gazillion times, but haven’t submitted anything yet because of cost. If I suddenly get a good pay day, I’m totally submitting! But, just so you know, yours is the first course I’ve ever considered traveling to Creative Live for. 🙂
It was so much fun. 🙂 He is a good sport plus he knows that a happy wife equals a happy life. Ha!
Yay!!! I would love to meet you and get to work with you in person. I’ve got my fingers and toes crossed for a big pay day.
Thanks, here’s to hoping!
LOL!! I’m sure everyone in the airport thought I was crazy as I was busting up laughing watching this!
Oh Kris, I was pulling for you! But, then again I enjoyed watching the pie in the face. 😉 (p.s. You did a helluva a lot better than my boyfriend would do!)
Congrats, April! I’m so excited for you, the past 4 years, and the next gazillion years! You’re awesome!
I know! I knew the colors, I just blanked out. The last one really got me stumped though, she’s been busier than I thought!
Hahahahahaha…just like my neighbors. 🙂
Didn’t he do soooooo well? I was really impressed and couldn’t believe he got so many right.
THANK YOU!
JenKen, I know right? I told my husband about it and he pretty much confirmed he would have been wearing a lot of cream.
I love how he was scrambling to do legit math. so cute!!
That was fun! 696 Wow!!! I just hit the 700 mark after 6+ years… good for you!! 🙂
I couldn’t believe I had posted that many times when I went to check. Congrats on 700! That’s such a great milestone.
Oh my gosh, you guys are HILARIOUS. lol!!! Now I want to eat something with whipped cream on it.
Thanks! 🙂
Congratulations! Looking forward to your next 4 and beyond.
Thank you very much! 🙂
That was super fun! We should do that everyday…kidding Chris! What a great sport you were, haha. You did good Chris!
Richelle, you’re famous!! haha 🙂
He was SO happy he got all the names and then splat, right after! haha. Well played April!
He casually waves…baaaahaaa! lol.
Hahahahahaha….I vote for many more pie in the face games. 🙂

Thank you!!!
This was unexpected and I loved it! Happy Anniversary to Blacksburg Belle.
Thanks Michelle!
Wow, your hubs knows you and your biz WELL! I felt kinda sorry for him. 😉
Happy anniversary to you!
You rock!
He does! I was really impressed. Don’t feel sorry for him…he got lots of kisses and cuddles for this one. 🙂
How inspiring to see you have FUN! I loved watching this video 🙂
Can’t wait to see your new CreativeLive classes <3
Thanks Indre! I had a blast filming it.
Hilarious. I love that he said fishtail braid, what dude knows what that is, well maybe he does’t know what it is exactly but at least he knows enough to use it in a sentence. My husband couldn’t do that. I am looking forward to your next Creative Live courses coming up. I already RSVPd.
Hahahahaha…he knows about fishtail braids cause of me. He still probably couldn’t tell you what the difference is between a regular braid and a fishtail braid.
So happy you’ll be tuning into my CL classes. Yay!
Congratulations on your anniversary! It’s so awesome that your hubby knows so much about your business too. Great to have that support!
I was surprised by how much he knew. He’s a good one.
Thanks!
Happy Anniversary! I love your gut-giggles as your neighbours drive off. You both crack me up, and what a great sport your husband is…must be the name 😉
Let’s all take a moment to silently wish for a miracle that will enable me to get my butt to San Francisco in November. Ready? Go!
*moment of silence*
Even if I can’t make it there physically, I’ll be all over the chat online. You’re the best!
xo
K
Thanks!!! He can make me laugh louder and harder than anyone else and he’s such a good sport.
YES…moment of silence while I hope and cross my fingers and toes for you! I would absolutely love to meet you in person. It would be the BEST!
Congratulations on your anniversary, April! I loved the video, so funny! And your husband did so well, mine wouldn’t be able to answer any of those questions about my blog 🙂
Can’t wait for your new Creative Live courses. The previous one was so helpful and inspiring! I signed up for one of them already, will go register to the other one right now.
Thank you, Sasha! I’m surprised by how much he knew…he pays a lot better attention than I thought.
So happy you’ll be tuning in for my CL classes. Yay!
You two are so cute. I love the video and the dance at the end! Happy Anniversary. 🙂
Thanks Katie!

Also congratulations to your husband, who got a great score on the quiz.
Loved to watch it and feel like you were just in front of me. Great video!
Thanks Jacolien! I can’t believe it’s been four years and how much my life has changed in those four years. Crazy!

That was one of the cutest videos I’ve even seen! My jaw hurts from smiling. What a cute couple, and what a good sport your husband is. Adorable. Excited about your new courses! Congratulations on 4 years and wishing you health, happiness, and success in the future!
Thanks! So glad we could make you smile. 🙂
I’m super excited about my CL courses. I hope you get the chance to tune in.
Already signed up and marked my calendar. I have your blogging class and I love it! Even though this was my first comment, I’ve been enjoying your blog for a while, and learning from you. So, thank you.
Congratulations April! You are an inspiration to me every day!
Awwww….thank you, Dana!

Congratulations on the BIG 4!! and cheers to many more 🙂
Eeeek! I’m super excited to see your next two classes on Creative Live. I so wish I could drive all the way there, but I’ll settle. I love what you are doing. You totally inspire me every day. Literally! I’ve been getting your daily writing prompts. Keep it all up, lady. Go you! Oh, and Hooray for the smoothie experiment. I’m hoping this helps you on your health journey. Hugs!
April I would totes want to be in the audience of your course! But it would probably be a little difficult to get to SF from South Pacific / Australia. Sigh…
