What I’m Reading Lately
6 Mar 2013
I thought it would be fun to throw out a handful of my favorite blogs of late. Will you pretty please leave your favorites in the comments? I always love finding new ones!
Camp Patton. I just found this blog last week, and I’m already in love with it. Grace has three little ones, and yet still manages to blog every day, be totally hilarious, and look adorably fashionable. She also keeps it real, and I love that. As a fellow Catholic, I also love her behavior-during-mass grades for her kids. I am certain that I was once just as squirmy in the pews!
Refashionista. Jillian makes crazy awesome things from thrift store clothes and then donates them all to a charity shop in South Carolina. I have been following her blog for ages, but I am still amazed by the things she does, and inspired like crazy. Also, she’s hilarious, and I love reading about her adventures in Columbia, where I once visited some dear college friends. Art Bar forever!
Our Hearts, Our Love. Kendra is probably the most honest and down-to-earth blogger I’ve ever known. She and her husband just moved last year from Atlanta to the Columbia River Gorge, and I love reading about their daily life with their sweet daughters. Gorgeous photographs, sweet stories. I am always happy to see a new post there.
Elise Blaha. This is the first blog I check every morning, since I know there will be a new post Monday through Friday. I could go on for pages about how much Elise has inspired me, but I will just say this: she’s always making something new or boldly stepping in a new direction. It’s so much fun to follow along. She and her husband are expecting their first baby in June: exciting!
Kayla Aimee. Do you guys know KA? She is amazingly hilarious. I actually laugh out loud at her posts. Her daughter was born at 25 weeks, but she’s a fighter, and she is doing great. She is two years old now, and she makes a lot of contributions to the hilarity. Must run in the family.
So, what do you think? What else should I be reading? Thanks, guys!

Oh my goodness! What an inspirational set of blogs! How did you find them? I went to all of them. Each one was funny, fresh, creative and full of excellent photos. I have a blog to recommend: Krug The Thinker!

Thank you! I am so glad you liked them! Mostly I have found them through other blogs or through Twitter. 🙂

Awesome! Thank you so much! I totally recognize that blue dress and am totally jealous that there’s a thrift store-Target connection where she lives! I’d just be in heaven 😉 Thank you so much for the rec–definitely following her blog!
