Friend Making Mondays: Three Things

It has been awhile since I’ve participated in Kenz’s FMM! But lately my brain has been focused on the wedding and I’ve had trouble coming up with things to post. (Unless you wanna here about the stresses of last minute wedding planning….lol) So, I thought this would be fun and would let you guys know I’m still alive! :)

If you’ve taken part in FMM then you know the rules. If you’re new, please take a moment to answer this week’s question on your own blog then add your link in the comments section here at: www.alltheweigh.com so we can all see your FMM questions and answers. Please invite your blog readers to add their links here too so everyone has to opportunity to be seen. The idea is to connect with other awesome bloggers so take a moment to post your own FMM post and comment on a couple of other posts. Now it’s time for this week’s topic!

    Great blog–loved reading about your likes and desires and fears. I share some of them–LOVE the show Shameless! It’s a guilty pleasure, because the family is so warped, especially Frank, but Fiona tries so hard!
    I think it would be okay if you blogged about your wedding planning. I’m thinking most of us readers are female (I could be wrong), but all girls (and even old ladies like me) LOVE reading about weddings. I am excited for your big day, because I know how fabulous you are going to look in that dress.

    Loved this post Brooke! But I have to ask what this is?

    “A gender reveal party for some friends.” That one stumped me!
