WEEKEND UPDATE.


RECAPS
1 | Blog design. The majority of the blog design updates have been completed! There are still a few small changes to be made, but for now you can check out the new "good reads" and "new here?" pages!

2 | Garden fresh. I loved picking fresh veggies out of our garden this week. They taste so delicious!

3 | A mountain weekend. I spent the weekend in the mountains of North Carolina with my family and some friends. It was refreshing and relaxing.

4 | August is for celebrations. We celebrated my mama's birthday and my parents' anniversary this weekend, and my birthday is coming up later this week! Stay tuned for a fun birthday giveaway on Friday!

Megan McIlvaine said...

Thank you!! We were right outside of Franklin...in between Franklin and Highlands. :) Some friends have a cabin up there that we were using!

Betsy Gettis said...

loving this new design! (and the fact that this post is titled "Weekend Update" because obvs it makes me think of SNL, which of course also makes me think of Seth Meyers, who I love as well)

Megan McIlvaine said...

Woohoo!! Thank you!! I sort of love it too ;)

Megan McIlvaine said...

Thanks Betsy!
Haha!!! I'm pretty sure that was the reason behind originally calling these posts "weekend update". That was my favorite part of SNL...mostly because of Seth Meyers. ;)

Betsy Gettis said...

Same here. He's right up there with Jimmy!

Elizabeth Mayberry said...

Yay for hanging out in North Carolina!! We were in the mountains this weekend too, near Boone. So beautiful! Also your blog looks so awesome!

Megan McIlvaine said...

Oh fun! I have been to Boone! We used to go to the Scottish Highland games at Grandfather Mountain and would go into Boone some. My parents also go to Mount Mitchell for some camping every summer. That whole area is so pretty!

Megan McIlvaine said...

Also, thank you! :)

Ember Grey. said...

Love those crossed puppy paws :) (My dog lays with his four legs completely sprawled out... there's nothing "proper" about it.) Alright, I'm off to watch the new Cheerios commercial... and probably cry over it.
