I hope you guys have had a wonderful April. mine has been all over the place with all the new things in life - car and phone included! also, we've had blazing heatwaves and deep snow. all in a month's work! so many photos to share - let's begin!
{side note: the question I get asked the most on snapchat (muslimgirlbakes) is which nasheeds I am listening to. at the moment, my favourites are this one, this one and this one.}
