Things that make me happy - the illustrated version

New nephew - Baby Cade!  Wish I could be there for his big blessing day.  Aunti M needs a little baby lovin!

Texts from Montana telling me to look outside and seeing this beautiful rainbow. Yeah, crappy picture, but it's there and it made me happy!

Snacks that Liam shared before swim lessons, can Mimi can't remember to grab anything

Silly glasses on  a silly girl

Swim lessons!







Engagement rings.  You know what I love most about this one?  It's sheer beautiful simplicity.  Nothing flashy, or splashy.  Just like their sweet relationship.  Very quiet and unpretentious.  Love the symbolism.

The cute couple going to The Roof for dinner where he ALLEGEDLY got down on a knee


Two lovers snuggling.  Look at that expression in Jack's eye.  "Don't mess with my girl"


Ahhhh........happiness!

    The last picture with that look in the dog's eyes is too dang funny. Way cute.

    UNCLE!

    lol...trust me...I have tried calling uncle but it doesn't seem to help my situation this summer. I took one look in the mirror last night and I look like a tired old woman. I gotta make this better. Thank you for the "thinking of me" comment on my blog.

    Congrats on the engagement. I love the ring. It is beautiful. I want an invite to the wedding.

    You make me laugh about the snack thing. Don't we all have "mom guilt" going on?

    Great ring! It's very similar to mine. :)

    Chloee is just so adorable. I'm kind of sad that she will be leaving because I will miss seeing her so often on your blog.

    Did someone call the Roof a celestial version of Chuck a Ramma? Oh gag. Chuck a Ramma should be so lucky.

    Isn't summer the best time of year? Love taking my kids to swim lessons.
