My happy list and a GIVEAWAY!!

It's finally here...Thanksgiving week.  I LOVE everything to do with Thanksgiving from the comfort food, to the focus on being grateful, to the coupons and shopping...oh and family and friends too;)  It's just great all the way around.

I wanted to let you know how much I'm thankful for each one of you too.  You brighten my days and really make me happy, so I'm having a little give-away:)  THREE lucky readers will receive a glass pendant or keychain of their choice...YAY!  To enter leave me a comment for what you're happy about.  EACH COMMENT will be an entry to win.  Leave lots and lots!  I will love reading through them and so will everyone else.

So to kick us off (in no particular order) here are just a few of the things on MY happy list:

1.)  Dairy Queen has pumpkin pie blizzards and I do not lie that a little tear popped out when I was eating mine!  If you like pumpkin pie you MUST run to DQ immediately and get one.

2.)  McDonald's has the McRib right now...limited time offer.  It reminds me of being twelve all over again.  I know that's weird, but it does:)  And just so you know I don't eat fast food very often at all, but this was a special "limited time offer";)  How can you pass that up!

3.)  My paintings make me sooo happy.  I've been really busy creating one of a kind home paintings for people and it makes me feel like a REAL TRUE artist.  Best feeling in the world!

4.)  My organizer thingy from IKEA completely transformed my mess of a studio into some place I actually want to be!  It's definitely a happy feeling being organized.

5.) My front porch beckons me home.  It cheers me up when I look out the window, drive away or pull up.  It's so beautiful.  I had a few of you want to see the whole thing.  So here it is:)

6.)  My girl's laughter and singing.  They pretty much chatter all the time and most of the time it drives me nuts, but I know that someday I will miss it...so I'm trying to take it in and just enjoy the noise:)


7.)  So incredibly blessed that God has given me so many special people in my life.  You know who you are.  You pour love on me when you listen...when you reach out and care.  You bless me beyond words.  I love you.

8.)  Oh and my sweet little Fergie.  She's my company during the day.  I just love that little bundle of fur:)  This is her new favorite spot.  We keep her in the laundry room when we're gone and she's found the perfect bed to lounge on!





That was just some of my happy things.  I can't wait to see what makes YOU happy!!!  I'm taking a little breather for the holiday and will let you know the winners AFTER Thanksgiving.  I hope you all have a wonderful week filled with all of God's goodness:)

Have a blessed day.
