Loves

As I was reading Shell's blog, Stuttering Shell, I loved her idea. So much so that I decided that I would follow and do the same--some of my loves at the moment. Grab your wine {or other drink} and enjoy.

*A close parking spot

*Stepping on the scale and seeing that I am 1 pound away from my weight when I got pregnant with Madelyn

*Thunderstorms

*Sleeping and listening to the rain

*A perfectly made cup of coffee

*Finding a new Etsy shop that I love

*That perfect pair of shoes

*A new wine that is a-maz-ing

*Capturing a perfect moment with my camera

*Reading so many fabulous blogs

*Getting lost in a good book

*Good hair days

*Laughing until I cry

*Fried ice cream

*Sephora and Ulta

*Cute coffee mugs

*Spring flowers

What are some of your loves?

  1. How could I forget Sephora AND Ulta?! Ugh...shame on me!!

    And, yes, I agree...love, love, love the sound of rainfall especially when I'm snuggled up tight in my bed. I can do without the thunderstorms, though. ;)

  7. Great list. I agree with all of them but especially laughing until I cry. That is a really good one. For me, I love shopping end of season sales and trying new recipes.

  12. Good A.M Chelle-

    Thanks for stopping by the garden.

    Here are a few of mine at the moment....

    Temps. above 30

    Waves hitting the beach

    No workman ringing the door bell at 7am

    That extra glass of Cab at the end of a long day

    Long afternoon nap snuggled in a Ripple.

    Green grass

    Pots overflowing with flowers

    My new Macro Len

    Fresh flowers on the counter

    Coffee ready when I wake up

    All my blogging buddies in blogland. Especially, a new posting by Lucy over at www.attic24.blogspot.com

    Finding a new blog like this that I REALLY want to follow.

    Coasting in bed for that extra 15 minutes on a rainy Sunday morning

    Boxes arriving via Mr. Brown full of new yummie colors of yarn

    Taking that perfect picture

    Great ideas inspired by friends

    going to the park on a warm sunny day to walk AND to read a book or magazine

    a nice glass of wine (getting closer...only about 9 weeks until I can have one!)

  20. I'm so with you on shoes, wine, thunderstorms, books, etc. Today I love that my 3-year-old slept late. Late enough that I was showered and dressed for work before I heard "Mommy" for the first time.

  21. I love when my husband does little things for me, like renewing my antivirus on my laptop when it ran out and leaving me a not on top of it saying what he did and that he loves me!

    I love how thoughtful he is!
