Summer holidays. What can I say, lots of late nights, dinner out doors and swimming, swimming, swimming….

And se7en + 1 mini-figures lined up under the tree…


Here are some lovely links from this week:
- Brilliant Blog Photography Tips… on Mummy Alarm.
- The Very Best of A Beautiful Mess – 2013…
- Everything you ever need to know about reading The whole Bible in a year… on The Gospel Coalition and if after that you are still looking then here is a list of Bible Reading Plans for 2014 from Ligonier Ministries.
- Loved this on Tinkerlab: The Year’s Best Art and Creativity Books for Kids.
- So you want to be a travel writer then you have to follow Where’s Andrew, the Digital Nomad, take a look at his work and dream away.
- And if you still need some adorable Christmas cheer, we have watched these videos by StPaulsArtsandMedia about a million times… just love the Christmas story… acted out by kids with a large dose of cuteness.
- Everywhere I look folk are talking about John Acuff’s Empty Shelf Challenge… have to say I thought about it for more than a moment… and just can’t think where I would find that empty shelf… I would rather be reading than clearing a shelf – to be honest. Hmmmmmm still thinking about it!!!
- A Blast From the Past: And here are a couple of links to posts, this week, from previous years:
And the se7en + 1th link:
That’s us, hope you are having a fun and fabulous weekend!!!
Thanks so much for the mention and taking the time to stop over on the blog. They’re great tips and I’ll let Lucy know that you enjoyed them too.
Have a happy New Year x
Hay Carolin, Thank you so much for stopping by, totally loved the post… Wishing you all the best in 2014 too!!!
Thanks for the link to the tinkerlab post – that was really useful.
I adore Jon Acuff, and love that empty shelf idea. I’m thinking about how I can make this work as a Kindle fan 🙂 And thank you so much for sharing our post in this lovely round-up.
Hi there Rachelle, I loved your fab post!!! Otherwise I have been thinking about your need for a virtual book shelf. If you only read kindle books then you can create a category of “read books” on your kindle, but you could also sign up to Shelfari and create a virtual bookshelf online… I think I may do that because I read tons of kindle books. Definitely something to think about!!!
The photos are great! Legos and cookies always make me smile!
