happiness is.....

back to school dinner club.....

happiness is not: getting called home from the poor babysitters who were overwhelmed at the nonstop crying by several of the little cherubs. we decided to borrow & ride bikes home from the dinner and pdubs popped a tire and had to walk it home ;o

happiness is: finding & buying 8 pairs of salt water sandals at last chance for $4.99

 happiness is not: only one of the eight pairs actually fit one of my children. how could i pass it up tho... right?






happiness is: enjoying a delicious send off meal before starting an 11 day cleanse.

the cleanse was pretty good, terrible in the beginning, but afterwards really made me want to improve our eating habits regularly.

happiness is also stocking my fridge with tons of organic veggies & fruits and feeling fulfilled when my family ate them all up.

eating delicious salads everyday...

 happiness is not: craving alcohol and coffee every second of every day on the cleanse. we decided we missed coffee more than alcohol tho, so that was good. it is also not fun to sit next to my smoking hot friend in a bikini while on the cleanse. it made me feel like it was pointless 'cause i wasn't going to look like her at the end anyway. (A, luv u!!!)




happiness is: enjoying breakfast with my mom and sis and finally being able to have coffee again

 happiness is: having the girls turn all of R's toys in to girl toys... no matter what.

happiness is: this girl being old enough to do this....

happiness is:  being able to spend so much one on one time with this little face every day

happiness is: being greeted first thing this morning by my cute little carpool buddy with this sign. it made me cry :)
