Happy Things

I'm feeling a little sappy today.  I'm not sure why but I just feel very lucky and blessed.  I think of all the amazing people I have in my life and I seriously almost weep.  I spent the weekend with my group of friends who I feel so lucky to have.  We're a rowdy bunch and we rag on each other but we laugh hysterically and when it all came down to it....I know they'd be there for me if I needed them.  I love our Tuesday night bowling nights and our Sunday "after hours" chats.  Bonfires, movies, games.....they're good eggs.

Friend dinner!

 Bonfires in the mountains....

Saturday lunch club

 Karyn made me a survival kit for gift....

 Conference watching, Facebook hacking, food making...we did a lot this weekend

We take better selfies than Ellen does

And NOW I get to spend the rest of the week with my family!  We're taking a vacation to California to visit more family and I'm so excited!!!!

Ahhhh life is good.

Who are you thankful for in your life.  Tell them.  

 I'm thankful for all of you too!  Your comments make my day so thank you thank you.

Happy Day 2013

At Clinique Friday December 13th was National Happy Day.  A day we celebrate our fragrance "Happy" and celebrate all things that make us....you guessed it....happy.  It was so much fun.  I feel truly blessed to work with some amazing women.  They are smart, strong, funny, talented, kind, gracious, compassionate, and I have so much fun when I'm with them.  Most of us have worked together at that counter for the last 1 1/2 years.  We have all had some very hard struggles in our personal lives during that time but no matter what we've always been a great source of support and strength for each other.  I couldn't have made it through some days without them.  Ok ok....enough sappy stuff.  Our celebration of Happy included music, dancing, laughter, and......orange eyelashes.  Yes.  They happened.

our "Happy" wall....people wrote down what made them happy! :)

my answer was very thoughtful 

                                                       

yep.

Absolutely love these women

What makes YOU happy???

BUT  one of my very best friends in the entire world....

JENNA!

Got engaged last night!

Congrats Jenna and Josh!  Love you guys!!!

The day my best friend had the cutesest baby girl.....ever.

There are many perks to working at Macy's.  One of them being adorable baby clothes that I get to browse anytime I want.  I found the most adorable outfit there for my best friend Beth's baby girl Brooklyn and had been saving it for weeks waiting for them to come visit.  Beth texted me yesterday telling me she wore the dress to church so I had to have pictures.  And just for me they set up a photo shoot to showcase the dress.
(I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact they have the most photogenic baby on earth and love taking pictures of her- it was for me and I'm standing by that)

It's ok that you're jealous of how cute she is.
