As I have said before, I loooove snooping around blogs!
Are you like me, and like reading how people go about life and get things accomplished?
When you drive in your neighborhood and you see your neighbor's curtains open (or door if you're lucky), do you glance inside?
From afar of course. I'm not talking stalker, creepy here, or curiosity killed the cat kinda thing.
You know what I'm talkin about. More like, satisfaction brought it back, kinda thing.
As in your blog is interesting and I am curious to what will happen tomorrow, kinda thing.
I'm not too embarrassed to say I peak inside, or maybe I should be, either way it's entertaining.
For me, it's the curiosity to see how other people decorate their home or their approach to life.
This curiosity kinda thing got me to thinkin,
How do blogger's come up with their name?
A year ago when I wanted to start my blog (and never did 'til now), I was dead-set on the name magnoliamama. How clever! I'm a mama, I live in Magnolia, and it's my favorite tree and flower. Over a year I lived with that name like it was all mine and I owned it. This last December, my friends Ali, Lisa, and I were talking about blogging. I told them how I wanted to start a blog and the name I came up with. Lisa said something like, "That's such a cute name. You should at least reserve the name so it doesn't get taken."
What? Taken? Why...no one could be as clever as me. It's mine, all mine I tell you. It never dawned on me...

Welcome to this precious blog,
Andrea is a wife and mama to two of the cutest 'lil patooties Emma and Benjamin. She describes her blog as a scrapbook of her family's life. I get inspiration from her photographs, which are really well done. The name definitely suits this proud mama. So, roll your window down and drive over to her blog and have a 'look' inside her world :)
Now...how did I get my name you ask?
From this 'lil sweet thang!
My Maggie-Pie, Moguls, Maggs, or as her Uncle Lee likes to call her~Maglit.

This is my cutie patootie niece.
Or as her proud daddy calls her, Ootsie.
Isn't she presh!
She named me Aunt Coco.
When I discovered I needed to come up with a different blog name I texted my Maggs
(ya know a phone call is a thing of the past)
It was like, dahhhh Aunt Coco!
COCOINMAGNOLIA
O...M...G...I said
Why didn't I think of that...
COCO IN MAGNOLIA IS PERFECTION!
AND IT'S MINE, ALL MINE I TELL YOU
Tell me, how did you come up with your name?






















orginially my blog was Green Acres Brenham, I started blogging because my husband said I couldn't or wouldn't. So I sat down one night and said "I'll show you." Well I'm a city girl who married a county boy - Green Acres then the city we live in Brenham. Well I used that name for a bit and really never loved it. My name is unusual, so Totally Tikaa made the most sense.
