Spotlight on Friendly Friday Followers! We love your participation and want to show it! In addition to gaining followers, each week we’ll select three blogs at random and will feature links and a write-up for those blogs in the content of next week’s Friendly Friday post. There are so many seriously wonderful blogs out there, and this will be a great way to highlight some of those each week. Say hello to the lucky chosen 3 for this week (and feel free to stop by and give them a little extra love):

Mrs.White at The Legacy of Home is the mother of five home-schooled children, ages 13 – 22, and has been happily married for almost a quarter of a century. She is a writer, reviewer, who loves fashion, sewing, reading, fitness and cleaning. She writes about everything from home decor to housekeeping to being thrifty. You’ll also see photos of her children and read about their day-to-day lives. This blog has a charming feel to it immediately and welcomes you in!


Jen at Simply Living is a twenty-something who writes about her adventures as she finds her place in the world. She started her blog at the beginning of this year and is off to a great start! She has a great how-to for an inexpensive St. Patty’s decoration that would be really fun to do with your kids (or just for yourself), and in looking at her blog I’ve found at least 2 project ideas that I really want to try!

Ashley at Stilettos to Strollers writes about subjects ranging from becoming a first time mom, to saving money, to dating! She loves sharing great deals, tips, and stories; she also has an adorable Etsy boutique where she sells handmade bows and other creations. You’ll find a lot of tips on saving money on your shopping trips, too!

Now that you know about these 3 wonderful blogs, it’s time for you to join in! Add your family-friendly link below and we’ll see you back here every Friday! And don’t forget, you can get the InLinkz code to share the link list on your blog, too.

All three hostesses appreciate followers through GFC and Twitter, and we’ll follow you back – just leave a comment with your URL for GFC.   Linky opens at 10:00 CST.
