6 Things that make me happy

I was tagged by my cousin Melissa. It has been great being back in contact with her and getting to know her better. I think cousins are so fun and I've been lucky to be able to stay in touch with many of my cousins.



So the tag is 6 unimportant things that make you happy. {we all know that our kids make us happy so you can't pick that}



1} Green Grass.... I love the smell of freshly cut grass and the way it feels on my feet. I love the color and they way it make everything look brighter.



2} Music... Again, I love the way music makes me feel. I like the beat and bopping my head {although off beat} to it. I listen to the lyrics of every song {I like to know what I'm singing} and I like the story it tells



3} Hot Showers.... I'm so thankful for this convienence! Not just to be clean but because I feel like it washes away my troubles or stress from the day. I can hop in the shower and come out and be a better mom and person.



4} Moving.... I really enjoy moving. I love meeting new people and seeing new places. I love the new challenges and over coming them. I love cleaning out my house, and getting rid of the junk that accumulates. This isn't to say that I don't look forward to my "white picket fence" because I totally do. But right now I really like moving.

5} My Dishwasher.... I love being able to plunk my dishes in and have them come out clean. I rinse them off first but I love knowing that they are sanitized. And while we are on the subject of dishwashers... Thank you all who come over and eat with us, I totally enjoy the company and good conversation, but to be honest... after you have helped me load the dishwasher, I redo it because you probably have loaded it wrong.... {I appreciate the effort}

6} Sumer Evenings... I love the warm evenings. I love watching the kids play outside and run from house to house. I love getting to know my neighbors. Every now and then we get the water out and let all the kids run wild. I love seeing the joy that stay's on the boy's faces as they get to watch the sun go down and still get to play outside. I love seeing the stars and moon rise. I love the warmth.

There you are, 6 random things that make me happy. I tag anyone who wants to do this. Tags are good for days that you don't have anything to write, or if you are having a slow day, or maybe just a brain cramp. So do it if you want to.....
