Hello my sweet dear friends! I hope you had a great restful weekend. Today is a grey and wet start to our Monday, and most likely, this bleakness will continue on so maybe pancakes will be served for lunch today to cheer things up ;)
I’m rewording my Monday posts again to “happiness is…” You get to fill in the dotted lines! *smile* Please, won’t you join me?
Today, happiness is….
– having a relaxing weekend
– making some Christmas tree ornaments with my little helper
– driving with Christmas music blasting in the car and us singing off key
– sleeping in on Sunday morning
– a day just for the two of us (me and hubby)
– making dinner together after a long drive to my favourite restaurant only to realize they’re open only for lunch on Sundays
– finally finding these darn vegetables and trying them for the first time
– dinner making to a football game ~ from our kitchen!!! yessss…. ;)
– the hubby turning it off for an episode of my favourite show
– realizing this guy still makes me laugh till my stomach hurts
– after 15 years
– reorganizing my daughter’s closet
– revealing the surprise to her this morning
– seeing her excited to be able to pick her own clothes (I hung her dresses low ;)
– sparkling ornaments all out ~ maybe we’ll dec the halls and trim the tree today ;)
– my brand-spankin-new badges ~ do you like?
– this young cute Canadian guy Sean Quigley making Christmas music so cool:
(when I first found this video two days ago, he was at 15 thousand, now he’s already close to 200,000 hits! Let’s help this guy out and spread the Joy he brings ;)
So my friends…. please finish the sentence in your own words of what happiness means to you today.
Today, happiness is…

A fun visit and a complete family photo at the local nursery holiday open house (posted on the blog too;), holiday music blasting, knitting and watching the holiday classics with the little ones. We’ll get to ornament making later.
Your weekend sounds wonderful.

That is a very happy list Angela, and I’m glad you got into a family photo this time ;) xo

…your blog and your list, that cool video (I just shared it on Facebook), and your awesome blog badge! Around here, happiness is the way my kitchen’s going to smell as soon as I get off the computer and in there baking cookies!
