Day 94: My House

After a week away from home, today I was really happy to see our house. 

This is our little family 2 years ago when we moved into our house

Ignore the weeds in the background but I love our tulips too!

Our house makes me happy.

It may not be the home of our dreams, but for now it is perfect!  

Day 93: The pictures say it all!

Not much makes me happier than this:

Sorry Grandma, for some reason this is the only picture I had of you and the kids...weird, I know. 

We had a wonderful trip to Idaho.

Seriously....grandparents are the best!

Happy!

Day 92

Sometimes a nice juicy steak makes me extremely happy!  We had a great dinner tonight: A medium-rare steak, baked potato, green beans, and a green salad. Yumm! It makes such a big difference when a steak is cooked just right and tonight it was perfect.  So good!

Day 91: Dawnee

Although I love all of my aunts, today my Aunt Dawnee makes me happy!  This is one of the reasons I love visiting Idaho.  Dawnee is kind of like a second mom to me. She is one of the most selfless people I know and always spoiled us rotten as kids! My kids adore her and she always makes me smile! We spent the day with her today and she took the kids to the park.  As you can tell, they had a blast! Thanks Dawnee!!!

She just woke up so she isn't quite in the picture taking mood yet.



"Higher Dawnee, higher!"



I am not sure how much Halle likes this horse but Ryan loved it!

Weeeeeee!

Day 90: Idaho

Yeah! I am down to my last 10!

I don't know what it is about Idaho, but it makes me happy!  My dad used to say that the air just feels better in Idaho. He used to cross the state line when we were driving, take in a huge breath of air, and claim that he "feels better already!"

The kids and I made a last minute trip to Boise this week and I just love Idaho. I love the people in Idaho. I love the openness of Idaho. I love all of my memories from Idaho. 

(I will post pictures later, my grandma's computer won't let me upload my pictures for some reason and I don't have the patience to figure it out right now)

Day 89: My IPOD

Today I am totally happy that I have an IPOD. My playlist on my IPOD absolutely saved me today on a long long drive.  I will give more of an update tomorrow but for now, I am happy that I had an IPOD on a 7 hour drive with my two kids. No other adults. Just the three of us. I sang along with artists like Blessid Union of Souls, Tim McGraw, Tyrone Wells, a few American Idol contestants, Keith Urban, Train, Bruno Mars, and even a little Ricky Martin.  It is a fantastic playlist and therefore a happy in my life!

Day 88

For some odd reason, Sam's Club (I would say Costco but there isn't a Costco close to our house) makes me happy. This really makes no sense at all if you really think about it considering I always end up spending way too much when I go there.  However, we always tend to have a good time when we go to Sam's.  I thank my parents for this one. I remember going to Sam's club on a Saturday with my dad and we would have lunch by eating the samples, thanks Dad! Plus, what is better than shopping for groceries, looking at super cute baby clothes, and eating pizza or Nathan's hot dogs all under one roof.  Genius if you ask me! There have even been nights were we are bored and don't want to cook; guess what, we go to Sam's, grab some cheap dinner, and shop around a little bit. Pathetic, I know, but at the same time, happy!
