Happy 101 Award

I received an award that I overlooked! I've been so out of it!!

So, the Happy 101 Award from Cafe Bellini. Thank you so much!

Things that make me Happy!!
- Cuddling up on the couch with my husband after a long day's work to veg out and watch TV. (Netflix has been way too addicting)

 Us out for volleyball at a local bar

-Watching my cats go nuts over catnip, they have way too many catnip toys and they love them!

-Something that is so amazing that I love and wish I could do all the time is to sit outside (at a restaurant or on our back deck) with dear friends drinking and talking for hours. I especially love seating at a cafe outside in a great city, especially a city in Europe so great!!

 Martini on my back deck!

-Lazy weekends. I get to sleep in and do whatever I want!

 Lazy Sunday

-Being with my family, usually relaxing, drinking wine, eating good food, and laughing about funny stories we all tell.

Vacay in Germany, first beers of the trip!
