::Weekend Bloggy Reading:: Link Up!

Welcome to my Weekend Bloggy Reading link party. I hope you'll link up your best post of the week today, and maybe leave me some comment love. Please be sure to read my guidelines before you add a link. Don't forget to enter this week's Rubbermaid Giveaway!

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:
Craft Garden Home Decor Tutorial Features Serenity Now blog


sources listed below

~Wood Pallet Family Tree via Delightful Deets

~Raised Garden Beds via Infarrantly Creative

~Pool Noodle Summer Wreath via Fox Hollow Cottage

~Vintage Camera Silhouette Signs via Sweet Little Gals

~And Me? This week featured:

    Time to link up your best post of the week!



    Rules:
    • Please link back to me within your post. I will not feature your link if you don't link back to me in your post.*
    • No items for sale, shops, giveaways, etc. and please don't link up the same post week after week. 
    • Remember this party is for your best post of the week. Don't link up 10 posts...that's really not in the spirit of this party.
    • Visit some of the other links--that's how a good blog party works--participation!
    *A text link-back (ex- Linking to Serenity Now) is fantastic, but here's the button code if you'd prefer to use that rather than a text link-back:
    Weekend Bloggy Reading








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

    What are you up to this weekend?

    Natalie's last day of kindergarten and class picnic are today...I think I'm going to cry typing this. Pizza party with the Mimi tonight--always a nice way to end the week. I'm going out with friends for tea and shopping in the "olde towne" area where I live tomorrow...too excited!

      Oh, how I wish I could make those raised plant beds. If only I could keep the neighborhood cats out. My pesticide man is the other problem. Had beautiful herbs growing. Sprayed them. Seriously. I about died. Then my plants did. Ha! Oh! And my lawn man put weedkiller on my blueberries! $60 worth of blueberry bushes!!! He owes me! (Should I go on? He also stole fruit from our tree.) Can you tell this hit a raw nerve? Hahaha!

      Anyway, awesome for those who CAN make these and enjoy them.

      Great links today! Thanks for hosting the party! Enjoy the wknd.

    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! :)
