So Dani tagged me... "these are a few of my favorite things..." all guaranteed to put a smile on my face...  make me feel happy!
1 - Our new sheets that we got for Christmas from Mer's mom and dad...  freshly washed with Downy "clean breeze" fabric softener, and dried with a fabric softener sheet too...
2 - Floats, Sunkist or A&W...  doesn't matter, one or the other with vanilla ice cream!  That'll put a smile on my face!
3 - Going in to either of the girls bedrooms...  I love my whole house, but I am really happy with the way the paint turned out in the girls room and the nursery...  it was fun to do!
4 - Cadbury eggs...  original creme, orange creme, or carmel...  yum...
5 - Merrill's music finding skills...  we are always listening to something new, fresh, and unique.  It's funny that music I have been listening to and loving for months, shows up on commercials now, and people are talking about how good it is, wondering who it is, and I know, because I am so cool...  because of my Mer-Bear...
6 - Pod-Casts...  Mer and I have had this "thing" lately.  We put the girls to bed, cuddle up in our bed and listen to a pod cast together, we are usually laughing.  We always have such fun conversations afterwards.
7 - Snuggling up with Peyton...  especially after she's had a bath, but anytime will do.
8 - The smell of "Tinactin"...  I know, this one is weirder than breast-fed baby poop...  but it always means that Mer  is home, and I love when Mer is home...
9 - The phrase "Giggidy-Giggidy"...  makes me smile and makes me giggle!
10 - Living where we do...  our families are so close.
11 - Hearing the girls sing.  Lately it's been one of Mer's new bands...  (imagine music notes here...)  "Park that car, drop that phone, sleep on the floor, dream about meeee!"  I love hearing their voices.  It makes me even happier to see them singing in Primary...  which Lynn does more now...
12 - Pizza & Movie night.  The whole  family is involved.  We make home-made dough and sauce, top them ourselves, and eat them while we watch a family flick...  sometimes we even make strawberry daiquiris...
13 - Making cookie dough and eating it then baking the cookies and eating them too...  always as a family, and always listening to music, and dancing, but please don't come watch us through the window...
14 - Jumping on the trampoline with the girls.
15 - Going on walks.
16 - Lake Powell...  mmm...  summer, warmth, red-rock, the smell of gasoline and water, jet skiing, water-skiing, barbecuing on the water, sand in my swimsuit (hehehe...), exploring on the rocks and hunting for seashells with the kids...  I could go on and on and on...  even the drive is fun!
17 - Scrapbooking, of course...  although you wouldn't be able to tell lately...  refer to #
7...
That's what I can think of now...  what are your favorite things...
Christie...... Summer...  Jaclyn
