This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to the winner, Debbie Mauer. Thanks to all who entered! I have a ton of things I should be putting up today but I feel pulled instead to share a spontaneous giveaway with you. As I look around and see the people around me, living our daily lives and [...]
We had a little party this past weekend… you may have recalled me gushing about it in my most recent Happiness Report. It was such a wonderful night. So… it was a great party. You want to know how I know it was great? I was so absorbed with the people around me that I [...]
It’s a rainy, stay inside with a good book and cup of coffee kind of day. A snuggly, beautiful, happy day. What better kind of day then to share a little happiness with you all? I am bubbling over with happiness today because Nick and I had the opportunity to bring recording artist, Shannon Curtis, [...]
Happy weekend, friends! What better time to share a happiness report than the beginning of a weekend. I’m sure there will be lots more happiness happening over the weekend, but for now, here is what’s making me happy lately… The older three kids all got started off to school without a hitch.

My husband and I have been chatting about Michael Phelps and some of his interviews at the beginning of the Olympics. I don’t know if you saw what we saw, but at the start he seemed completely checked out… like he wasn’t excited to be there. As the week went on and he started winning [...]
Today is the first day of July and my mind is blown away that we are already at this point in 2012. One of my favorite things about doing these Project 365 posts is taking a moment to re-live, through pictures, the events that happened in our life. These past two weeks were pretty uneventful, [...]
I am happy. It feels so good to say that. I am happy and that makes me happy. After a year of ups and downs, worrying, frets and stress it feels so good to be able to say that I really am happy. Our summer, so far, has been one of intentional happiness. I purposely [...]
When I was little (and still as an adult), my all time favorite book was Happiness is a Warm Puppy by Charles Schulz. I guess I haven’t changed much… I’ve always been one to hunt for happiness in everything I can. Right now, for me, happiness is… helping to keep kids alive by raising awareness [...]
Fresh out of school and at my first job, happy hour was a regular occurrence. My colleagues and I would leave the stressful day at the office behind and head to the local posh restaurant or bar to unwind and put on our social hats. If we were lucky, our boss and owner of the [...]
I am sitting here, at 4pm, stuck in bed with the flu. Not quite the start to 2012 I was hoping for! Flu aside, I am really excited for the start of a new year. Every new year I select one word to help guide my year. 2011 my word was “happiness”. I read and [...]
Are Adam Lambert & David Cook from American Idol still making music? Don't think I've heard anything from either in quite awhile. Finished below his goal time! Woo-hoo! So proud of my hubby. @ Marion, IA http://t.co/9KuOoylajq
