happy 101

Thank you, thank you, thank you to both Holly Sails and Recession is the New Blonde for giving me this award:



You both are such adorable girls and I love reading your blogs!

Here are the unofficial rules of this award:
1) List 10 things that make you happy
2) Tag 10 bloggers that brighten your day
3) If you are one of the 10 bloggers awarded, link back to my blog and continue brightening people's days!

So, ten things that make me happy (it's so hard to only come up with ten!):

1: Being on the water...on a boat, at a dock bar...
2: Thoughtfulness
3: Falling asleep with the windows open and listening to the peepers (they're little frogs that chirp...just had to clarify since I know they aren't known all over the place as peepers!)
4: The feeling after a great workout
5: Random conversations with strangers I encounter during the day...I love talking to any and everyone
6: Getting Country Living and Southern Living magazine in the mail
7: Driving down country roads...windows down, music up, hair blowing...
8: Sunsets
9: Laughing so hard I can't breathe
10: My family and my friends who are like family, no matter where I am, they are who make my world :)
