We have been having a crazy time these past few weeks as our house undergoes some serious renovations. Remember all that rain we had back in the spring? It wreaked a fair amount of havoc on pretty much every room in our house, thanks to a faulty roof. We're fixing it now, and excited about how it will turn out, but our house is a little bit of a disaster zone. For instance? In our living room we have a couch sitting on top of a couch. Yup. Also, some of my blogging tools (camera, laptop charger) seem to be sitting somewhere around the bottom of the pile. So blogging has been slow (as you might have noticed), but we hope to be back at full speed in the next week or so.
In the meantime, Happy Friday and here are some links that caught my attention this week. Hope you enjoy!
