Turn It Up Tuesday #127

I love being a guest host on Turn It Up Tuesday. Reading all of the posts and looking at what people choose to share is so fun and inspiring. Even if I don't post myself on a particular week, which happened recently due to my computer problems, hosting this party really helps me feel connecting with my fellow bloggers. Last week there were so many great recipes and ideas, it was really hard to choose just two to feature. 

This week, we're still celebrating, but we're now celebrating two birthdays!!! Natasha and Stacey both celebrated their birthday on Sunday - be sure to wish them a Happy Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday!

We are so happy to have you all join us for another amazing week!

  2. I'm loving those 10 Healthy Snacks Perfect for Your Purse and the apricot cashew balls too! Seems like I'm always snacking these days, and having something portable and healthy is great! Thanks for choosing my egg-free mango cupcakes as a feature! Bobert really enjoyed them for his birthday, and I think your son's friend will too. :)
