::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.

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:

~Burlap Backed Built-Ins via Driven by Décor

~License Plate Art via Love of Family and Home

~DIY Expandable Industrial Light via from Gardners two Bergers

~Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream via My Blessed Life

~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?

    Michaela Byrd's best friend is having his big pirate birthday party tomorrow, and the girls are so excited to attend. We're heading out of town with my mom on Sunday to go through the kitchen at my Nannie's house for a day or two. Hard to think about cleaning the house out and staying there without Nannie, but it needs to be done. Y'all pray for safe travels for us, will you?

      I hope you have a fun time at the pirate party. Be safe on the road to Nannie's house. I have a feeling that you may be coming home with all sorts of vintage treasures.

      Thanks for hosting the party.

      Thanks for the party! That post on picking the link pictures is great info. and I haven't seen one on that before!

      I remember cleaning out my grandmother's house. It was fun to reminisce but it was exhausting because she had so much stuff in her tiny little house. It kind of made me want to go home & purge. Hope you get through it okay.

      Hi Amanda!

      My in-laws are in town for the weekend, so I almost forgot about your party! They're helping us put our family room floor in, so excuse all the banging in the background. :)

      Thanks for hosting!

      I appreciate it,
      Laura

    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! :)
