Friday: Weekend Links

Since I have been traveling so much this past week, I have read a lot! Here are a few favorite links from the past week.

As I hope to finish unpacking this weekend, I couldn’t help but be struck by this post from The Nester – Well-planned Hoarding. Are you guilty of it?

This post from Hollywood Housewife about her kids totally inspired my post about Elias and Adeline yesterday.

If you missed this post from Angie last month, you must go back and read it. Profound how God can use a baby’s rejection of a paci to minister to our hearts. (And be sure to pick up a copy of her new book Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole. It is a beautiful read.)

I will be making a version of this costume for Adeline this weekend.

If you haven’t yet done so, visit Walgreens and upload a photo you love and then get a free 8×10 when you use the code TRULYFREE. I ordered a photo for my Project Life album, which I am still working hard to catch up on.

Every week Becky Higgins shares 5 photos that inspire. This week she featured Mary Ann Perry, who is a total favorite of mine. (I think we would be friends in real life!). Check out her shots, then go take some photos at a different angle.

I love my friend Jen’s new site 10 Minute Dinners. Lots of great recipes and practical tips.

It’s Friday, which is my favorite day to shop on Zulily because you get free shipping all weekend long. They have been having some great sales on kids toys (I bought a Little Tykes play kitchen last week for the kids for Christmas) and tons of cute boys and girls clothes. I also love all the women’s styles they offer.
