Happy Sunday, friendly faces! And hello, hello from Boulder!
So I know I said I’d keep you guys updated on the shenanigans going on at Blend this weekend via Instagram, but I’ve had the worst time trying to get a wifi connection out here… which is also why this week’s Link Love might be a little lighter on the links and why this intro is kind of lame — I have to get this post up asap!
BUT! I’ll have a recap going up for you guys in a few days, and there’s still plenty of great links to check out today, so I’ll talk to you guys when I’m back at home. Have a great Sunday!
