It's the last day of the month! It’s time for another monthly wrap up and the Best of the Blogs Linkup!
Hi friends!
March has been wonderful month for life and the blog. I've been able to get outside and enjoy some beautiful weather and embrace all things spring. I can't wait until after April 18th (tax day has an extension this year!) to be able to enjoy this lovely time of year even more with my hubby.
Blog wise it's been the best months I've had since I started Running in a Skirt! I've been able to work with some wonderful companies and I'm so grateful for each of you that read my little corner of the internet. This blog brings me so joy. Thank you again.
Today is also the 5th Best of the Blogs linkup! If you are blogger, you can linkup either a Top Posts recap like I do OR one of your favorite or top viewed posts of the month. The idea is that we will have the best this blog community has to offer for each month in one place. If you are not a blogger, this will be a great resource for you to learn about new sites and view some incredible posts. It will be held on the last weekday of each month.

I do love these monthy recap posts. I try to get around as much as possible, but I realized I missed a few of your posts this month.
Wish I had time to put together a post like this right now, I would totally linkup. I'll have to keep it in mind for next month!!!
