Happiness is ______ {Week 19} #happinessis

Lisa over at Crazy Adventures in Parenting has a weekly series where we share what happiness is.  Every week I look forward to Wednesday because I love sharing all my happiness with everyone.  This week was no different.

Happiness is camping in the back yard.  Before we were getting ready to bed the kids all disappeared and I was worried that they were not coming back.  But sure enough, they did.  And they all made it the whole night...piled up around me....even though they had the whole other side of the tent to themselves.  I'm not complaining either.  I was just happy to make some memories.

They were having fun.  Doesn't look like it though!

Happiness is stopping by Baskin Robbins after a hot afternoon of soccer practice.  I haven't had orange sherbet in a long time, but I could almost hear my dad telling me to change it up from my usual pistachio.  We used to get one of each and then share because we could never decide which one we wanted.

Happiness is a beautiful sunrise on the walk to the bus stop.  I am not a morning person, but seeing the amazing and always different sunrises ever morning make being up early so much better!  Anthony said I must have loved this one because its all different shades of purple and according to him that's my favorite color.  I guess a silver sunset would be kinda boring.

Happiness is a best friend.  One who will never leave your side.  Knows when to be serious.  And one who will share his bed with you.  Even if it means he has to hang his head over the edge and you only have enough room for half of your body :)  These two are inseparable.  It makes me so happy to know they have each other!

  1. That sunrise is INCREDIBLE!! And I would LOVE to try camping in my backyard, but I'm afraid of bugs, lol! Do they make bug repellent tents yet? :)
