Favorite Things

SMILING'S MY FAVORITE!!!!!

Buddy the Elf really says it best, I do love to smile! :)

One of my sassy bloggy friends Keely decided to do a "Favorite Things" bloghop and giveaway! Fun fun! Here is just a sampling of my favorite things:

These are absolutely my two most favorite things. But you probably already knew that. :)

Honda Mini-Van

This is the make, model and color of my minivan. Yes, I am a mini-van mom and I am proud of it! A couple girls were over at my house last week and they said "we never imagined you in a mini-van". I think they were trying to give me a compliment. :) I LOVE MY VAN. Have you ever driven one? Brett and I BOTH wanted one long before we had kids even but thought it would be silly to get one without the need for a carseat in back. :) I know there is a certain image that comes with a van, an image most people might try to avoid. But me? I don't care about image, I care about my stow and go seats, DVD system in the back and super low, practically interest free payment!

Blogging

I don't scrapbook. I don't put pictures in albums. I don't journal. I blog. It is so much fun to keep track of memories, share my thoughts with others, and enjoy a community of other mama's that inspire and encourage me!

The Jessica Simpson "Dafa"

This shoe changed my life. :) I am on my second pair of black flats, have another pair of brand new black ones still in the box, waiting to be used once these ones wear out. And I bought them in brown. If you can't tell, I am a big fan. They are super cute, have just a little bit of a heel so you can wear them with skirts or slacks, and can be dressy or casual. LOVE THEM!! (You can't get them anymore, unless you get them on eBay I think)

Glade Soy Candle in Pomegranate & Cranberries

I bought this candle for $5.99 somewhat impulsively at WINCO the other day. I can't stop burning it; it smells SOOOO good!! And the fragrance really travels throughout the house which is nice. I highly recomend this candle!!
MacBook Pro

I used to think that Mac people were all fanatics and overly obsessed with their computers. But then I got one for a really good deal. And now I am a fanatic. I LOVE this laptop!!!

Mariah Carey's Christmas Album

I have loved this album since I was in high school. Come on girls, you all know you have sang "All I Want For Christmas" with a hairbrush as a microphone at least once in your life... :) This is my all time favorite Christmas album and I can't wait to listen to it this year and dance with my baby girl to the upbeat songs. :)

Play Kitchen @ Costco.com

This is all that Emersyn is asking Santa for Christmas. Our neighbors have the same one and Emersyn LOVES it!!! I love that it is red, gender neutral that way! Emersyn's favorite part: all the doors that you can open and shut. Too cute.

Starbucks

Not much explanation needed here. :)

Those are some of MY favorite things...what are some of yours? :)
