This week we are talking about the things that make us happy! It’s easy to focus on the stuff that makes us stress/sad/mad/scared but what we should really be putting our time and energy towards are the things that make us happy and joyful! Today we are sharing some goodies we recently got from Happiness Boutique, which of course had us thinking about things that put a smile on our face.
Brooke
This time of year makes me totally happy. It’s not about the gifts or stress of accomplishing tasks, for me it’s time spent with family, entertaining and seeing the excitement on my boys’ faces from a few twinkling lights. I will admit, I am the person that is already playing Christmas music! I haven’t pulled out the decorations just yet, but the boys and I have been taking trips to the store just to browse the decorations, ya know, to get prepared. They are so excited and I am so excited!:)
Erica
While I couldn’t possibly rattle off everything that makes me happy there are definitely several top items that come to mind. It pretty much goes without saying that my teenie girl makes me happy – her laugh, her personality, the way she walks, plays, eats (I mean if you’ve ever watched a baby feed themselves…freaking adorable) – so much cuteness. My husband makes me happy because he gets me and truly is the ying to my yang. The fact that we have such a fun and supportive extended family, on both sides, not only makes me happy but gives me the warm fuzzies. That goes for friends too! Laughing at the silly moments, acting like a kid, exploring things that are new and enjoying a good craft beer at the end of a crazy day…all of these things make me oh, so happy.

Thanks for hosting the linkup! I know just how important it is to do what makes us as individuals happy for our own well being. People may not agree with the way I dress, but if it makes me happy I will do it regardless of whether they think it is okay for a guy to dress the way I do!

You both look so pretty in blue! I enjoyed reading the things that make each of you happy. Thanks for sharing.
This is definitely a happy time of the year! Love the necklaces you both chose!
My daughter is my main source of happiness but so are my family and friends. Enjoying a day off, being silly, laughing so hard I might even pee, good food, home-made food for my mom and of course the whole November and December with all of its festive Christmas sparkle and gleam! Great post ladies. Love the two dainty necklaces and Brooke you are wearing the gorgeous navy wrap dress which I love. Come back tonight after 6.00 PM to linkup with me beauties!

I love this–thank you for the reminder to focus on the good right now! I love this time of year too and can’t wait to eat yummy Thanksgiving food and listen to Christmas music!
I love the Holidays too! My kids jumping up and down in excitement makes me happy and family time makes me happy. Frankly some pampering myself time makes me happy. You both look so cute with these dainty necklaces.

It is easy to focus on things that make us sad rather than thinking about good things. These necklaces are so pretty, you both look gorgeous!

Lovely delicate jewellery. The navy wrap dress is very stylish. Seeing my daughter get excited for Christmas makes me happy. We’ve been out to look for a new bike for her today, but obviously Santa has to approve it 🙂
