Whew!  I’m still exhausted from our 4th of July fun yesterday and I hope your day was filled with sunshine and friends!  We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of “cousin fun” in the pool (inflatable pool of course!) and had a picnic where 4 toddlers had the appetites of grown men.  All the fun in the sun makes a growing child hungry!

This week I shared When Social Media = #Insanity and I loved hearing your thoughts on how you balance social media.  Some of my favorites include not having a smart phone (genius idea!) to checking it only certain times of the day.  Thank you for your insights!  Since posting, I’ve decided to limit checking social media to 3 times a day.  It’s been freeing so far and I hope to continue this trend.

I also spilled a big secret this week announcing the Saturday Soiree Blog Party starting next Saturday, 7/12!  It will be the perfect way to snuggle in your pjs, drink some coffee as you read some encouragement to start your weekend.

Mark your calendars for the blog party AND the fantastic giveaway that starts next Saturday as well!  I am in LOVE with these prizes and can’t wait to bless someone with these goodies!

Bloggers,  I need you to help spread the word about the blog party and to link up with me on Friday night starting at 8:00 pm.  I can’t wait to feature your amazing work!

Enjoy your weekend and your free printable!
