Calling all bloggers! Join us here at the Will Blog for Comments linkup, a family-friendly place where bloggers come together to share their posts.
- The "Will Blog for Comments" bi-weekly linkup will open every other Monday at 8:00am Mountain Time and remain open for 10 days (longer over some holidays).
- Each linkup will close 10 days after opening, on Thursday at 8:00pm MT, or when the linkup reaches 50 posts.
- If you're a family-friendly blogger, come share your posts following the participation rules.
- Know great bloggers who would enjoy sharing their posts and visiting others here? Invite them, too!
- The most popular posts from the previous linkup will be featured in the spotlight during the next linkup.
- Please don't forget that the rule to participate in this linkup is that you must visit and comment on at least 2 other posts. This is not a drop-a-link-and-run party. It's an exchange.
- NOTE: I visit and comment on each link shared, so if you don't see a comment from your host, it means there was a problem with your link and/or comment restrictions in place.
- Featured posts in the spotlight are based on popularity as chosen by readers.
- All featured posts will be Pinned to one of my Pinterest boards for extra visibility.
- The most-viewed posts that end up in the Spotlight tend to be from those shared here in the first day or two of the linkup. Many shared later on in the linkup only get seen by me, which is a shame, so I also feature one of my personal favorites that you might have missed as Host's Choice.
Welcome to our Current LinkUp,
Will Blog for Comments #69, open September 15 - 25.
WHAT'S NEW AROUND HERE
In my family, we celebrate a couple of birthdays in September--my daughter's last week and my husband's this week. Typically a chocolate girl, this time she requested a raspberry lemon cake with lemon cream cheese frosting.
My husband requested something "chocolate with nuts" and is more of an ice cream lover than a cake lover, so he'll be surprised with a lovely creation from Cold Stone Creamery!
This week I am also looking forward to my semi-annual retreat with The Rising Phoenix. That's my FOREVER team of amazing gals from various locations around the country. Twice a year we leverage the power of Zoom to bring us together, talk about helping people preserve their photos and videos and digital memories, and brainstorm. I've been sending swag bags with a treat (chosen by a different team member each time) and even some "passports" I made using Canva to commemorate our "travels," which is so much fun--so don't miss seeing photos of them at that link.
And now on to the Featured Posts in the Spotlight! If you missed them last time at Will Blog for Comments #68, check them out today by clicking the blue links.
