Six Things that Make me Happy

I was tagged by a Jenny. And so here goes!!

1.) I like to dance and I dance in my home almost everyday. Usually it is some kind of dance from my cheerleading days in high school. Sometimes it's ballroom from when I took Bronze Modern Ballroom dancing at Ricks College. Or sometimes it's just got no rhyme or reason. I usually sneak it in when I think I'm the only one in the room. My kids and my hubby catch me and give me a hard time about it sometimes. Hey, it lifts the spirits and it's fun - you oughtta try it!!

2.) I like a clean house! That makes me Happy!! And what makes me happier is to have it stay clean for more than a few hours!

3.) Long walks. I love to go on long walks with my husband, or with my husband and kids. A lot of times my husband and I walk while our older kids ride their bikes and we push Tyler in the stroller. I love that. It's one of our best times together as a family. That's happiness for sure!

4.) My kids make me happy! Sometimes I think as I lug my baby in and out of the van taking him with as I take my preschooler to and from preschool I think of how grateful I am to have him. He is so sweet, even when we have messes like this:



5.) Living in Colorado where there is 4 seasons makes me happy. I love having changing seasons of weather. I did not realize how much I loved it until I didn't have it when we lived in warm Arizona. Autumn is my happiest season of all because I like back to school time. It brings back fond memories from when I went to school. The weather gets crisp and cool. The leaves change into beautiful hues of reds and browns. My birthday is in the fall, which adds to it's splendor!

6.) I like to dress up and have some place to go!! That makes me happy! Sometimes dressing up just means a nice pair of jeans and a semi casual sweater with some cute jewelry. Who says dressing up has to always be a dress?!!

I'm tagging Kris, Heidi and Jenne to share 6 things that make you happy!

Ahem. That's only five things. I feel cheated!

I love four seasons, too. I'm ready for the change every time it comes.

I didn't know about the dancing--goes to show how private you kept that! Ha Ha.

I have to say I agree with you on the kids. My Bri has been a great joy to me.

I love that you dance, It really does make your body happy.
