Ironically enough, I thought I would start sharing what made me super happy last week (and posting this every Sunday).. when lo and behold my friend at Bons Vivants is doing the exact same thing! :-) Great minds think alike.
I have always wanted to figure out something I could do weekly. Most blogs have their niche.. and it was time for mine.
Listing the items that make this girl SMILE is a great give back to myself, my friends, and God!
Just a little happy list.. nothing more.
With out further ado..
THINGS THAT MADE ME SMILE THIS PAST WEEK:
1. Spending the day with the egyptian in Atlanta yesterday - visiting the Georgia Rennaisance Festival. (We held hands.. it was sweet. ;-) )
2. Getting my face painted at the Renn Fest. I felt like a little girl again.
3. Eating fried ice cream at the festival. hee hee
4. Watching a joust, and seeing the egyptian smile over how "cool" he thought it all was.
5. Seeing my friend, Telisa, at the festival. Telisa lives in Georgia and I have not seen her since December.
6. Watching "Breaking Point" at the festival. The show was hilarious.
7. Traveling to Douglasville to attend a cook out with my co-workers Sherelle and Tommie. I have not had grilled food in soooo long.
8. That leads me to - the best damned grilled chicken I have had in soooo long. The sausage was not bad either!
9. Having a virgin strawberry daiquiri. (I had to quit drinking back in October due to some meds I am on.) It was nice to partake of an old yummy drink, without all of the alcohol. Weird for me.. but good.
10. Watching as the Go Red For Women Luncheon was executed perfectly on Friday.

Great minds do think alike!
The tables look amazing, as does your face paint -- very artistic! I love it!
Aren't we lucky to have so much to smile about?
Have a great week!
This reminds me of the "10 things to be thankful for" list I used to do weekly on my old "Juicy Life" blog... very nice!
Looks like fun times!!!
Ooooo - I LOVE this - and what a great week! Very cool (love the Ren fair! I haven't been in probably 20 years, but keep saying that I want to get back there. You may be my inspiration to DO IT THIS YEAR!!!)
