Why I Love Today...

I AM HAPPY!
 The weather is just perfect! 
I am at home playing hookey from work. 
That doesn't mean that I am taking the day off...
in fact,
 I have been enjoying things that...
make me happy! 
Some of those things are...
A red front door
as well as red geraniums
fresh eggs in this years bird nest
a bird bath with fresh water for the mama and daddy birds to drink from
heady smelling roses in my yard
daisies mixed in with sweet smelling star jasmine
these unruly daisies
tamed and standing tall
FLOWERS!
any type
tools to make my yard look well manicured
and the knowledge of how to properly use them
allowing me to make this....
look like this in a short amount of time,
and when all is said and done,
I can go over to our newly re-installed pedestal sink

and have a cool drink of water from the drinking fountain
then scrub the dirt from my nails
so I can sit and relax,
listening to the birds singing sweet sounds to the wind chimes rhythm,
admiring my handy work, and thinking how lucky,
and happy I am.
 What makes YOU happy?

Hey There Family!

It's a place to post updates on your family, hear news about other family members, and most importantly updates about the 2012  reunion. It's a perfect way to hear read about the lives of people we are related to.

What a Difference a Few Weeks Makes

Remember this, a few weeks ago?
Spring is in the air today!
The flowers are showing signs of the Miracle Grow's powers.



It's Friday
It's a beautiful day
 Make some time to go out and enjoy spring!
