recapping the good things

So there's still some mess - there's still long tiring days. Today I chose to focus on the really fun parts of my week. They were plentiful! Want to see?

A surprise package arriving in the mail (you all know how simply marvelous that feels!) from my sister. A sweet card and aloe socks from Bath and Body works. Imagine wearing a cloud on your feet. :) I never knew a pair of socks could be so calming and comforting! Noe was super cute - he couldn't stop feeling them and saying - "ohhhh, soft."

Red pants from the GAP for $8.99. A bolder choice than I would normally make, but how much fun is it to wear something that's a departure from the same ol' same ol' and realize you love it?

PROGRESS on the house!! Woohoo!

Jay's new - and now favorite - hat. Can't stop smiling over that one. :)

Sweet corn straight from grandma and grandpa's garden. We love sweet corn! I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Look at my four favorite people enjoying this treat! :)

There are always good things when you look for them! :) I love the red pants...I'm like you, I am not normally brave enough to wear something that bold, but when I see them on someone else I always think they look great.

Have a wonderful weekend!
