My friend Sherry was given this little award on her blog. She passed the award on to me and a few others! I really enjoyed reading about things that make her happy. I have a lot of things that make me happy...way more than six. The top of my list has got to be going on quick get aways with Chad. He always checks out his schedule to see what trips I can go on with him! It makes me happy that he loves to spend time with me. But,I could only list six, so here are six things that I thought of first.








I am going to list Chocolate, Pepsi, and a good book all in one. The three go together for me. I try to limit my Pepsi drinking, so when I have one I REALLY enjoy it! My favorite time of day for these three things are when my children are nestled all snug in their beds! Have you tried this chocolate? They sell it at IKEA? If you are looking for a good book, this one is quite interesting...thanks Monica for always giving me a good book to read!


Harvesting my little garden has brought me great joy this year. I am going to expand my garden next year!


It makes me so happy when my house smells yummy! Here are some of my favorite ways to make my house smell good!

I never thought I would say this, but it makes me happy to make cards! Here are a few of my favorite ones that I have created!


I always get a little giddy when I walk in my bedroom and see my pretty pillows on my bed. I am ready for a change of color scheme...but still love a good made bed. I also have a favorite pillow that I HAVE to sleep with. It has to be tucked right between my legs. I took it camping last weekend and left it in our cabin. I thought I was gonna die when I realized it on the way home. Luckily, our friends were still there and Konnie tracked it down for me...now I can rest well!


Exercising makes me happy. I am usually not too happy while in the motion, but afterwards I feel really happy. You gotta love those natural highs! A friend has been coming over and working out with me in my new little work out room downstairs. I am not losing any weight, cause I still need to feel happy with the above things, but I am still happy when I exercise!

I am suppose to pass this award on to three more Kreativ blogger friends...

Rebecca at http://rebalene.blogspot.com/ Thanks for encouraging me to start a blog! You really inspire me in more ways than you'll ever know!

Jamie C...I am so happy to be in touch with you again through blogging! I loved being your roommate at SUU! http://dj-christensen-clan.blogspot.com/

Oh you are so sweet! I don't deserve! And I love your list, too. So when you gonna invite me over again? :)

No wonder we are good friends i like all those things too. Except reading. I'm not much of a reader. Instead i'm making more cards. lol

Shari said...

Thanks for the message too. I really miss you too. It was so much easier to stop by and see you every day when i was down there. or at least it felt like everyday. We will be back. I need to get katters in your pre-school.

I, too, loved Snowflower and the Secret Fan, it's on my top of all time.....and, I love chocolate and my drink of choice is Diet Coke, and I drink it way too much. I LOVED reading the things that make you happy. You are awesome!

Making bread and 4 wheelin' up a storm?! Yea Nicholle! What a fun trip to Cedar. We stopped (Brad's food hut) coming home from St. George and I love that little town. I haven't tried that chocolate yet but you can bet I will now with your recommendation. I love a good wallflower!
