This post is a part of my new weekly Linky Party {Weekend in Review}. Each week I’ll share some of my favorite posts from the week before. Link up anytime from Monday to Saturday on each new week’s linky party with an Instagram photo, tweet, or blog post about your weekend! Life is a party… this is one way we are going to celebrate it! 

 

So sorry I’m posting this late…but, I didn’t want your to miss out on visiting one of the great blogs that linked up to last week’s {Weekend in Review} linky party! Today I’ll be sharing a bit about Jenn and her weekend last weekend that included a thwarted date night that ended up sounding like a great evening and a trip out to see Yo Gabba Gabba live.

Jenn’s blog is a lifestyle blog that delves into all kinds of fun updates. She has a sweet, sassy writing style that is so true to her as a person. Check out her beautiful photography skills, stories of motherhood, and office fashion posts all on her blog, Elsewhere: Live from Portland.

Check out some of my favorite posts from Jenn:

  • Portland Bloggers Event— Strike a Pose (of course I had to plug this post!)
  • OK I admit it, I need help— Jenn’s thoughts on cleaning… oh man, do I understand!
  • Basically all of her posts about her little man, Oskar.
Thank you Jenn for sharing with the 
{Weekend in Review} Linky party! 
 
Check back later today for my weekend in review and a new linky party!

Last week, the first of the {Weekend in Review} linky parties we had a fun post from Kayla letting us know about her Fulfilling Weekend and the meal plan for this week.

Check out her post to read all about her weekend that included an 18 mile run as well as a wine & chocolate tasting.

Kayla’s blog is a fitness and lifestyle blog with witty writing and informative posts. Other awesome posts of Kayla’s that you might like:

  • A round up of wedding posts! I love how she put in some fun running details.
  • A gear post that talks about the importance of sports bras.
  • Recipes…. Kayla loves to cook. Check out this great round-up of recipes.

I love that Kayla shared her meal plan for the week. It is a great way to stay a little bit more motivated to stick with it.

Readers: Do you like to meal plan? How do you go about planning out the meals for the week? 
 
Thanks for sharing your post with us Kayla!

I’m always amazed with how quickly the weekend flies by… and, then I sit down to write a “Weekend in Review” post and I realize that there was a good reason for the quickness— I’ve been busy!
This weekend I prepped and help host a Valentine’s Day Ladies’ Night over at my friend Suzannah’s beautiful home. I spent my Friday evening making fabric roses, hand-lettering signs, and prepping Valentines. I have some fun projects from the party to share with you this week, and of course, photos from the party itself!
Saturday was all party, party, party. We invited a few friends over and had a blast chatting, snacking, crafting, and taking photos in the photo booth. (see animation above) These ladies have STYLE! You can look at any of them to get some ideas for something to wear this upcoming Valentine’s Day!

I also secured some final details on the March 10 Portland Bloggers’ meet-up and set up the ticket sales for the event. If you are a Portland-area blogger then you will certainly want to get your ticket before they sell out… this event is going to be AMAZING! Attendees are going to get the chance to pose for Portland photographers, learn tips on how to make their photos better, and more. Click here to purchase your $10 ticket!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I’ll be back tomorrow to share some more Valentine’s Day fun!
