::Weekend Bloggy Reading:: Link Up!

Welcome to Weekend Bloggy Reading. I hope you'll link up your best post of the week today, and maybe leave me some comment love!

All kinds of posts are welcome--recipes, crafts, funny stories, home decor, etc.; but please do not link to Etsy shops, businesses, items for sale, etc. (I have a Sponsors section, if you'd like to Advertise with me.)

Here are a few of my faves from this week:
sources listed below


~Desperately want to try these 4th of July Luminaries that Andrea whipped up.


~The rug in Yvonne's Outdoor Room really anchors the space.

~Beckie gave a yard sale trash can a Chevron Makeover.

~Jen made some 10 Minute 4th of July T-Shirts. I bet you could find 10 minutes to make one before Monday!

~And me? This week featured:
Time to link up your best post of the week (please take the time to include a link-back or my party button and visit some of the other participants!)

Here's the button code if you'd prefer to use that rather than a link-back:
Weekend Bloggy Reading






Party is open until 10 pm (ET) on Sunday night.

Remember that blog parties work best when bloggers participate, so if you have a chance to visit a few of the other links, you might find a new friend or two!

Today is the last day of VBS, and I will be glad to sleep in for a few mornings. A birthday party the girls are invited to, maybe a bit of beach trip shopping. Nothing major planned for the 4th yet...T always works, so I'm hoping I can convince him to let us have an impromptu cookout when he gets home.

What are you up to this weekend?

I'll be back tomorrow with some highlights from Weekend Bloggy Reading!

    I haven't seen a cassette tape in ages. Reminds me of Janet Jackson, The Bangles and Madonna. Too fun!

    Thanks for setting up the link party! I appreciate all your hard work to put it together.

    Have a happy Fourth!

    I read your childhood relics post...very cute. Wish I had saved some of those from my childhood. I did save all my daughters barbies and all their clothes. I had saved all my sons Ninja Turtle and Power Rangers and then one day when he needed new trucks for his skateboard unbeknownst to me he sold them!!! Kids! Happy 4th, hope you get your little bbq!

    Those ten minute tees may make a good project for this weekend. Thanks for sharing! I shared a recipe for a Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp this week. My kids usually insist on chocolate desserts but they really liked this one!

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
