Here's to the Little Things...

My Wonderful Family <3

It really is the little things in life that make me happy! I mean seriously think about it. For Kate it was as simple as buying a new color nail polish. For Sarah, it is treating herself to a diet coke; and for my sister, it is having the time in the day to edit pictures she has taken. Besides, if it is lots of little good things happen to you throughout the day, it adds up to one great, big, wonderfuL, GLORIOUS day :D


For me its buying fresh flowers to put in the house, trying a new kind of creamer in my coffee in the morning, being asked to be in a best friend's wedding (that happened today!!!), having an amazing run outside, being inspired to paint something new and speeding home (if you knew my driving record you would realize how COMPLETELY unwise this would be) to start on it! The best kinds of "little things" are unexpected. For example... While working at Vida Nueva this weekend, I had to opportunity to meet a girl headed to A&M in the fall. She found out I was a former student and the interrogation began. She was so excited and already so full of Aggie spirit that I immediately wished I was a freshman again (minus the fish camp. ugh).


So obviously I had a great day! I have a possible interview in the DFW area with an full service marketing firm that specializes in agricultural companies! This could be a FABULOUS thing! "A Year of Unforseeable Events" may start being written from a new location!! If that wasn't enough, daddy and I FINALLY came to an agreement on what my new car is going to be! I will soon(hopefully, depending on this little interview!) be the owner of a new Nissan Juke :D


So I challenge you, find joy in the little things! Really think about what makes you happy on a daily basis. Instead of "treating yourself," to these activities, implement them into your daily life! The more great days you have, the bad ones may not seem so bad!
