Greetings!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!  Andrew and I kept a low profile over the weekend, since we still aren’t feeling 100% from our colds.  We definitely enjoyed our time relaxing, taking walks, drinking tea and we even managed to pull a few weeds from the front yard.  Not too shabby, all in all.

Let’s get rolling to the real reason why you are checking out this post today, and that’s for the link party!  Last week, there were 47 awesome projects posted.  Out of all of the projects,  I have to say that The Latest Find’s Spring Frame Decoration was my favorite!

Congrats on the feature!  Don’t forget to take your button!

Happy Monday, gang!  I hope everyone had an awesome weekend, and didn’t get too crazy on St. Patrick’s Day.  Andrew and I successfully completed our first weekend without cable.  Yes, you read that right.  No more cable! Not even basic.  NOTHING.  And honestly, we don’t miss it at all.  I am amazed by how much we got accomplished this weekend.  You’ll see throughout the week a lot of the things that we worked on, and I’m so excited to share it!   Do yourself a favor, and get rid of your cable.  It’ll free up your mind and so much time.

Just as the weekend was beginning,  I got one of the best comments from Katie over at Adventures of a DIY Dork.  Katie is bestowing the honor of the Liebster Award to little ole’ me!  (Insert squeal here!)  I can’t thank Katie enough for the award. Plus, I have to say that being acknowledged by a fellow blogger that you are a fan of, makes it even more special. If you haven’t checked out her blog, do so!  Her projects are amazing.  (Especially this one!)

If you aren’t familiar with the Liebster award, I’ll fill you in.  It originated in Germany and is given to blogs who are up and coming with under 200 followers.  In German, Liebster means “dearest or beloved”.   I’ll take that definition, any day!  As an official receipt of the blog, I’ve got a few rules to follow.

1. Thank your Liebster Blog Award presenter
2. Make sure to link back to the blogger who presented you with the award
3. Copy and paste the blog award button on your blog
4. Present the Liebster Blog Award to 5 blogs of 200 followers of less and who you feel deserve to be noticed.
5. Let them know they have been chosen by leaving a comment at their blog.
