Hi again everyone! I’m so happy to be back after spending a few days in Salt Lake City for Alt Summer! I loved the more relaxed vibe of the summer conference and it was so nice to see so many old friends! A huge thanks to Brannon for holding down the fort while I was away – weren’t her posts awesome?!? Since I missed my weekly link round up last week, I thought we’d start the week off with a little round up of some favorites from last week!
