::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:
sources listed below

~Sisal and Starfish Wreath via A Pop of Pretty

~Modern Bird Feeder via Teal and Lime

~IKEA Nightstand Makeover via Craft Habit

~Patio Bar and Grill via Pure Style Home


~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, link parties, 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?


    My sis-in-law (SuSu) and I are hosting some friends from our MOPS group tomorrow night for an ice cream social. This means I'll be doing some straightening and cleaning around the house today. If you don't hear back from me, I was lost under a pile of Barbies!

      Your girls are adorable little ballerinas. And I love Lauren's patio. It looks so inviting.

      Hey girl! How are things back in VA? Are you missing Atlanta? It sure sounds as if all of you had a great time at Haven. I so wish I could have joined you there!

      I'm linking my "Driving Lessons" post from this week. Thank you for giving me a place to share it! :)

      I hadn't seen this linky party before today. What a great idea--sharing our best work is fun and a lot less confusing than some of the parties with complex rules! Thanks for hosting.

      Hi Amanda! Wow, I had such a busy week I nearly forgot to link up. My baby girl finished kindergarten Thursday. It ended up being quite an emotional day. When Adia came out of the school she was crying! We walked to the car to get her teacher's gift and as soon as she saw us walking up with a vase of peonies and a gift bag, SHE started crying too. Then of course I started to cry. The three of us must have looked like a group of crazies. lol

      Enjoy your MOPS ice cream social tonight. Sounds like fun! That would be a great idea for a birthday part. Hmm..

    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! :)
