Laravel Homestead IP Address Not Connecting!

Okay, so I'm having some issues with Homestead. Here's the problem: when I attempt to connect to blog.dev, nothing appears. I know I've properly configured the hosts file (I'm on windows), because when I attempt to ping blog.dev, it pings 192.168.10.10, but the requests all time out.

$ ping blog.dev

Pinging blog.dev [192.168.10.10] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Ping statistics for 192.168.10.10:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

I'm currently at a loss, here's my homestead.yaml:

---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
    - ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
    - map: ~/Programming/Projects
      to: /home/vagrant/Projects
sites:
    - map: blog.dev
      to: /home/vagrant/Projects/Blog/public
databases:
    - homestead
# blackfire:
#     - id: foo
#       token: bar
#       client-id: foo
#       client-token: bar
# ports:
#     - send: 50000
#       to: 5000
#     - send: 7777
#       to: 777
#       protocol: udp

Thanks for any help, I have no idea how to tackle this.

P.S: If there are any more files you need to see, let me know.

Edit:

I'm sorry, disregard this post, I made a very silly mistake. I was initializing vagrant from the projects directory instead of from homesteads directory...duuuh!
