Weekend Wind-Down # 114

Happy Friday, and Happy Easter weekend! I hope you have plans to spend focused time with family and contemplate the Reason we celebrate Easter. It is such a reminder of how much we have to be thankful for! In spite of the activities of the weekend, I am so glad you have chosen to be part of our weekly party! Let's get started and enjoy the great Easter links that are sure to be here! :) In case you aren't familiar with our party, here is the scoop: we like to learn new things, visit new blogs, and see what you all have been up to recently!

Bedside tray.  I've been using this tray for years, and it just makes Small Room Living easier! (Small Room Living should totally be a thing....like Tiny House Living...don't you think?)
