happy in my house

I woke up in a bit of a funk today. Maybe it’s sleep deprivation or the saw dust getting to me. But I am determined to snap out of it and get on with enjoying the day. So I took a 5 minute hunt through my house with camera in tow…looking for evidence of happiness. There was plenty to find.

The evidence (from left to right):
1. a kitchen table full of creative pursuits
2. new packaging for client goodies
3. happy birdies with a funny story
4. a vintage find for “the club”
5. creative tidbits cluttering my countertops
6. a reminder of my favorite people
7. a finished project (GOODBYE GOLD!)
8. the aftermath of little girls and dress-up
9. pretty baubles made from special hands
10. hard work
11. lazy mornings
12. back to school shopping with my favorite 1st grader

Lesson learned: Happiness isn’t too hard to find.

    Hi Jenn! Lk loved the birdies all in a row! Notice a bit of a green theme on the BTS shopping!

    The "funkiness" must be widespread today… feeling a bit of the same…

    Loved the pics of the KICKS!

    Have a great day!

    Love, Lala :o )

    I agree with LaLa, I think the funk must be widespread! i've had the weirdest day. I thoroughly enjoyed your post though. :) A great reminder about having a peaceful heart.

    thanks for my daily dose of happy! i just love how you bounced back from the disappointing news of the house falling through…way to go, you're my kinda girl! I've realized that I need to stop waiting around until I can afford to do this, or have time to do that, and JUST DO IT! We painting my kitchen cabinets in anticipation of the family visit, and I love them! I've been coming up with all sorts of projects, thanks for the inspiration!

    I probably need to take a walk around and do the same thing, and get out of this "waiting for baby" funk!

    I really love the stripey and polka dot bags! Where did you get them?! I must have some!
