Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #105! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas.
We're still seeing a few hummingbirds at the feeder, and I recently made a ladybug house so that if any want a place to stay when the weather gets colder, they can move right in. I've never had one myself, but I did some research before building it. It's essentially a bug hotel. They have the cutest bee hotel at our local nature center, too. So it helped me with a few different ideas.
I hope you are all doing well, and if I haven't told you lately, thank you so much for joining the party each week. I appreciate all of you! Now, onto the wonderful featured posts.
Congratulations, featured bloggers
HoneyBears and SydneyBeans shared a post, - Ninjas' 50th Birthday'; Whistler, Vancouver Island, and Kingfisher Resort plus Island Treats. Head over and explore how they celebrated a birthday and other fun activities.
Drugstore Divas shared a recipe for frozen strawberry lemonade. I think I'll make this on our next grilling day! It looks delicious and refreshing!
Krafty Planner shared her post, Planning 2026 with the Everything Planner. And honestly, I love this! She designed it around the P.L.A.N. everything philosophy. Head over and learn more about it and how it could help you live more intentionally.

A ladybug house? I didn't know those existed (other than my own house, where they like to live, lol). How adorable that would be. :)
ReplyDeleteLisa, I know, right? Haha, yes, they sure do. Lowe's actually has some for sale right now, but I wasn't sure about the ones they have. So I took a butterfly house, and my husband customized the entrance, and I painted it and whatnot. We will see if they will even use it, or if they will just hide in the foliage over the winter like they normally do.
DeleteStephanie, thanks so much for the visit and the link=up! I love the idea of a ladybug hotel, we have several "wild areas" on our property that we do not mow, water or mess with in any way. They are set aside for the bugs. Plus I have a habitat where bugs of all kinds can take up residence, and a special house for Mason bees. But I can see a ladybug hotel in my future, thanks!
ReplyDeleteMelynda, I love that you have an area in your yard that doesn't get mowed, intentionally leaving that for the bugs. How wonderful. Love that you have a special house for Mason bees. This is my first attempt at a ladybug house. I hope it can help some of them out, at least. Thank you for sharing with us!
DeleteThanks so much for the party, Stephanie. Our hummingbirds are thinning out, too. I think it's breaking my husband's heart, as he just loves to feed them every day! I love the idea of a ladybug house!
ReplyDeletePam, you're very welcome. Aw, I can sympathize with your husband. I adore the hummingbirds and love watching them. We are down to just a few. Thank you, I'm hoping the ladybug house works.
DeleteSummer is still around in our neck of the woods with low 100 degree weather here in Tucson. Lucky you with 60 degree weather tomorrow. My shares at this fabulous party #105 are 11, 12, and 13. Enjoy and be well. Nancy Andres @ Colors 4 Health
ReplyDeleteOh, that Tucson heat! I remember it all so well. My mom lives in Sierra Vista, and so I visited Tucson quite a bit. Have a great weekend.
DeleteThanks for featuring our Vegetable Beef Soup recipe--such a pleasant surprise! Have a wonderful weekend, Steph!
