Thursday Thirteen Happy Things

I got off the plane and drove straight to the last regular season baseball game. They lost. Again. But you'd never know it, because they are all just so darned happy to be playing. This was taken mid-game, to give you any indication.

Happiness has been a pretty big topic swirling around me lately, both personally and professionally. Heck, you can't even go to a kid's movie anymore without all sorts of inner peace and happiness talk. So here are 13 things that make me happy.
  1. Morning sunshine
  2. A triple digit word score in Scrabble
  3. Arriving home to an excited dog
  4. Listening to the Lake Michigan waves
  5. Honey and peanut butter
  6. Great beach reads (preferably AT the beach)
  7. Collapsing into a brand new bed
  8. Slurping the pretty cream leaf off the top of my latte
  9. Long holiday weekends
  10. Chocolate croissants
  11. Non-PC suntans
  12. Picnics in the park
  13. Drinking rum punch by a pool

I think we need a heck of a lot more #9s in the year!!!

How awesome these kids are still at the age when participating is the most important thing. Too bad we adults can't keep that attitude longer!

Happy 4th, and love your funny banner and tongue-twister name!
