I have been listening (and singing along..) to this album A LOT, haha, I am a dork but I have always had a thing for 70s soft rock type stuff (maybe I grew up hearing my mom sing to it on car rides?!) anyway I love it and many of the pretty meloncholy songs bring tears to my eyes...(!)

I am frustrated because I have lost the charger for our digital camera, so I have been missing out on lots of cute pictures of Isla...I am a very unorganized person, I am trying to get better at this, but maybe instead of ordering a new charger (since I know it will pop up soon..) I can finally get this plastic camera I have wanted for so long...its like $50 and takes cool pictures.

I always love the lounge wear at Anthropologie... sadly I never get any because I can't justify spending that much on clothes I just wear around the house...though these are cute enough to wear everywhere I think! I am a sucker for anything soft and comfy....

these photos make me feel good...I wish I could crawl inside them and be there.

I love this braided hair so much, can someone teach me how to do it please? : ) I don't think I am coordinated enough to do it on myself though.

Feel Good

Lately I have been thinking a lot about the fact that Life is too short. I think you should do what you really enjoy and what makes you happy. Eat the foods you love, wear the clothes you like, and take yourself to your happy places....favorite music, places, activities... sometimes I find myself focusing on the negative and stressing myself out for no good reason...no more!

This weekend I did some things that made me happy....I listened to this music while folding laundry and watched this movie and laughed a lot! I made great pasta, strawberry shortcake and truffles for the missionaries.... I kissed Isla about 2 million times... I cleaned up and made our home pretty... and focused on all of the blessings I have been given and how wonderful my life is.

I want to make an effort to always make my day one that I can look back on fondly. savouring the little details and not taking for granted all that life has to offer... really having a positive attitude and not sweating the small stuff. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.
