A Little Bit of Happiness & Sunshine to Brighten Your Day!

It’s been about 6 months since I entered the blogosphere, and I continue to realize more & more what an amazing community it really is.  Besides sharing our own personal stories day in & day out, it’s also about discovering new & interesting blogs, making connections & just maybe even forming one or two ‘virtual’ friendships along the way.  So, when it comes to supporting & promoting other wonderful bloggety blogs, I’m all for it!

I recently received  2 fantastic blog awards, and of course want to continue sharing the love by passing them on to some fabulous peeps.


First up, thanks bunches to Michelle at Flying Giggles And Lollipops, for dishing out the SUNSHINE AWARD  to me.  Her blog is both charming & cute, and filled with fab giveaways &  random musings on life as a SAHM to two girls!  Stop on over and say hello!

The rules are as follows:

• Put the logo on your blog or within your post.
• Pass the award onto 12 bloggers.
• Link the nominees within your post.
• Let the nominees know they have received this award by commenting on their blog.
• Share the love and link to the person from whom you received this award.

And here are the sensational blogs I’m passing it on to:

The rules are:

10 random things that make me happy (in no particular order) –

1. My daughter’s beautiful smile.
2. A Starbucks Grande Skinny Vanilla Latte.
3. Watching my hubby be the most amazing father  I always knew he’d be.
4. Thinking about my crazy kitty Skye (who passed away last September).
5. A new heavenly pair of  Seven For All Mankind jeans that fit like a glove (especially if they were on sale).
6. Looking at pictures of our fabulous wedding & honeymoon and reveling in all the wonderful memories.
7. ‘LOST’ – the best show ever!
8. Slowly but surely seeing the results of my hard work at the gym.
9. Catching a few moments of  ‘The Howard Stern’ show when I’m alone in the car.
10. Saturday night dinner out at a delish restaurant with my two favorite peeps!
