Facebook Friday

Not long ago, I liked Book Riot's page on Facebook.  I have seen so many wonderful things from them and here is one from today:


Happy Friday!  Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Life Full of Laughter

Whenever I hear this line of Daughtry's "Life After You," I think of my husband:

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter,
Without you God knows what I'd do

We laugh a lot and it's probably my favorite thing about our relationship.  I honestly don't think I could find someone with whom I would laugh more.  I'm so very lucky for that.


Despite all the laughing, it's hard to find a picture of us doing that together!  This gem is from our engagement photo session in 2007.  We were told to be serious for the picture right before this one and then we burst out laughing because we both look ridiculous when we try to take straight-faced photos.  I'm so glad this moment was caught by the camera.

Thank you, dear husband, for this life full of laughter.

Christmas Countdown

Tomorrow is the first day of summer but I can't stop thinking about Christmas!


It doesn't help that every time I go downstairs into my scrapbooking room I see reminders of my favorite holiday - wrapping paper and decorations that can't be hidden out of sight or new objects that I haven't yet put away into the red and green tubs.


Only five months and four days until I can unleash this Christmas beast!

Happy Father's Day

I love my father as the stars - he's a bright shining example and a happy twinkling in my heart.
