Does Your Family & Friends know about Your Blog?


I’m not sure if I asked this question before, but I’m going to ask it again, does your family and friends know about your blog? I have been blogging for almost two years now, and my family and friends have no idea that I am a blogger… To be honest, at the beginning, I really did not want my family & friends to be the only ones visiting my blog (does that make any sense?) Now I’m finding more and more bloggers around my area. I mean, really close to me, and I still haven’t mentioned being a blogger **sigh**. By no means am I not proud of my blog, I actually love being a blogger, and all of the wonderful people I have met through blogging (you guys are awesome!)

Any who, does your family and friends know that you are a blogger?

Thank You For Stopping By!

A Glance of My Mother's Day

 
Okay, so I am kind of super late with this post. However, I wanted to share with you guys a glance of my Mother’s Day. It was super low key, and the Mr. did a great job as always making this day extra special.

 
 
 (My morning started off waking up to long stem roses.)



 

 
( I woke up early to make my mom a homemade pound cake)
 
 
 

(And took some time to rearrange my mother's perfume bouquet, I made for her.)

 

(The Mr. made me my favorite breakfast)
 
 
(realized it was my year anniversary from my grad school graduation )
 

(The Mr. went out to get me my favorite soft served ice-cream)
 

(My day concluded with my little guy bringing me some more flowers.)
 
I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day!
 
 
Thank You For Stopping By!
