I decided to share a few of my favorite things with you. Some are pretty random, others make perfect sense, but this is it...the simple things in life that make me happy.

First off, it is important to start off with some of my favorite people...

Cory... I mean of course he is one of my favorite things, or rather people I guess. We have the best time together, even when we annoy each other! :)

My puppies...Pickle and Olive. They are just too cute...and sometimes they do the best things. Like last night when Cory and I got home from church, they laid on the bed with us and just snuggled.

What seems like a lifelong friend...Terri...TT. She is a momma now and I am so proud of her...of course Bennet is my favorite too...

My newer but feels like an old friend...Brittany...who is soon to be a mommy. And I can't wait to help and watch the new little lady in town..."Sydtessaddleigh." :)

And because of them, I love BATS...but not the kind you think!!! haha! We need to get together again...soon :)

Now onto the 'things..."

Hershey's 100 Calorie Wafer Bars...omg. Outstanding. These little babies are amazing! That's all I can really say about them.

Burt's Bees Chapstick...from the first time I tried it...I am hooked. This stuff is the best!

Canon PowerShot SD850 IS...my new camera. I am in love with it. Just learning all that it can do...it's small and compact-ness. Love it!

Babies...yep even crying ones. Cory and I can't wait to have one of our own!!

My pink ipod...I love it. I am excited too, I just hit over 700 songs on it! Waaahooo!

My computer...especially the screen. I don't know why...but I just love it!!!

My work scissors. You have hear much about these...and I love them! This is basically what they look like...the grey part is like this gelled material that is so cushiony and soft. GREAT!

Our new couches...They are really comfortable. Which you always worry about when buying new furniture. Plus we have taught the dogs to stay off them (and they are doing pretty well with it.) So they remain CLEAN and hair free (for the most part!)

Scrapbooking. I love it. It is my therapy. I don't do it as much as I want, but I am planning on working on that...at least a little bit more before we begin work on my craft room...which is another thing I love!!!

*side note* I hope one day my craft room can look as organized as this...

My Ficus Bonsai tree at work. It is the neatest little tree plant :)

And while we are on the subject of nature...kinda...I love my backyard. Every year it gets a little better...*it's the best pic I had with me at work...

Gardening...I just love it. I sometimes can't WAIT to do it. If I had more money....man my yard would be SO kicking!

My Nissan Altima...it was my FIRST NEW CAR...and I love her :) Weight Watchers...it is the BEST thing that has worked for me to lose weight...29.4 pounds so far and MORE to come!My "upgraded-cause-Ilost-my-original" wedding ring! :)

I know that I have much more that 'makes me happy' but pictures are getting hard to find...good ones at least. So we will leave it at that.

What makes you happy? What are a few of your favorite things?
