Simple happiness is...
instead of thinking about exercising, actually getting to exercise... watching Brynna's Preschool program and realizing she & I are one and the same, born 25 years apart... Maryn's happy, toothless grin... 
Lauryn being big enough to swing at the park and loving every minute of it... warm weather, white clouds, blue skies, and the occasional rescuing breeze... flip flops... strawberries fresh from the farmer's market... 
smelling fresh rosemary from a friend's garden... being welcomed with a liplock... watching Justin get weak watching 'Anchorman' clips... a clean kitchen... baby belly laughs... dance parties after dinner... swaying hips and bobbing heads while listening to my favorites and hulling strawberries... daydreaming...

Today was overflowing with my simple happinesses.
What are some of yours?

giggling in my prayers this morning with Dad because we are both so happy to have been together 33 years... having rain, shine and hail all in one day... talking to jesse and having him tell me he got a job as a model posing for art students at byu...going out for a steak dinner with my main man and laughing and teasing all through dinner...checking this blog right before bed and finding my heart filled with joy at the sight of my grandaughters... reading Jody's post and saying to myself, "ditto"
clean sheets...a good book... soaking in the bath... watching my kids play happily together... ice cream... hugs, kisses and I love you's from my kids... a good mind clearing run... hanging out with JD.
Barb, Sarah is so awesome because she has you as a mom!! I love you!!
A good massage. . .When my kids are playing together and I hear them giggling with each other. When Mike puts his hand on my stomach and our baby boy starts instantly wiggling. . .like he knows his daddy is there. . .cold watermelon. . .a text from a good friend. . .a comment on my blog. . .somedays there are too many to count!
I'd have to say looking at ADORABLE pictures of the girls!!!! Cute post. :)
That's perfect. I was actually just thinking about those special things that make me smile and bring a little joy into my life.
That was the greatest post! Maryn's and Lauryn's eyes look so intensely blue and yet totally different shades!
My simple pleasures:
the smell of freshly bathed children, my girls laughing at eachother, hugs from kendal, joe warming up my feet with his hot hands, late nights with my sisters, long days filled entirely with my little family playing and spending time together without any tv, a hard sweaty workout that felt more like fun than exercise... and so many more!
