smile :)

Over there <, I said I wanted to use this place to share all the things in life that put a smile on my face, but I realized I have yet to do anything of the sort. I’m in need a pick-me-up and thought, what better way to pick yourself up, then to think about, and write out, things that makes you happy??


1. The Beach. I love the sunshine, my toes in the sand, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.

2. Flowers. I love the way they smell, the way they say “I love you”, and that there is always something in bloom, no matter what the season

3. Reading. I love the way a book looks and feels when its aged, feeling like I’m really in a story, and picking up on new things every time I read something a second time.

4. The color PINK. I think anything is cuter when it’s pink, like umbrellas, toenails, and highlighters

5. Babies. I love every single thing about babies, and can’t wait to have my own!

6. Button-down sweaters. My Gramma ALWAYS wore a button-down sweater, I used to wear one from her closet every single day after school, and I hope to carry on her tradition of a Kleenex in the pocket at all times

7. Crazy socks. I love wearing socks, I don’t own a single pair of white ones, and my favorite are the ones that separate my toes

8. Fireworks. I love the sound they make, how wide they spread across the sky, and snuggling up in the grass with Justin to watch them

9. Blankets. I love to be cuddled up with a blanket, no matter what the temperature, and I can’t fall asleep without the weight of a cover over me

10. Dangly earrings. I like the way they stand out against my hair, I tend to lose little ones, and there’s always a perfect pair for any occasion

It’s amazing how just thinking about the little things in life that make you smile really does boost your whole day. Writing this has totally taken away the blah feeling I had when I started it! You should try it too!
