*I think everyone should try to write down things that made you happy for that day, and then try to surround yourself with those things. Discover what makes you happy! It has been great for me. (And of course there are much more loves....but I will just have to wait and share another day!)

Penny for your thoughts...

*The sun is wonderful. I wish it was a little warmer.
*Planning future vacations and getaways really excite me. I love to look forward to something fun, new and exciting. Growing up family vacations were the highlight of my years. (and even today they still are!)
*People who only tell half truths really bug me.
*I love spending Monday evening with the Carter's. I just adore these two.
*I have recently been keeping a gratitude and happy journal. Every night I record five things I am grateful for and list anything that made me happy or things that I discovered I loved that day. I will share more later. 3 weeks and going strong....
*I need to run more. PROBLEM: I don't feel safe running outside our apartment therefore it is not as easy as just running out the front door. I am still determined to run a half marathon in june....therefore...I need to start running more.
*Aaron is on track to graduate in December. I am SO proud of him!! He has been doing so well in school and at work. I just LOVE this man.
*Gap and giving me hours = they fail in this category.
*Teaching dance is quite the challenge especially when you have some cute girls that think it is "don't listen to the teacher DAY" every time they come to class. Though that is only one class.
*Finished reading the Lost Symbol by Dan Brown....loved it! Mr. Brown is pure genius. I would pay a penny for his thoughts any day. I am now starting the Davinci Code.
*I just love my husband to pieces.

The end

Say Cheese




This was Aaron and I at our Valentines Day Dance!
