Guess I'll start the first one today and right now. I can't say that I'll add to the list every week, let alone every day. Then when I'm done with this list, I'll try a list of 1000 other things. So, let's go!
1. My daughters' smiles. "Rabbit", "Peanut", & "Monkey" can light up a room with their beautiful smiles. They are my everything and their happiness is my daily motivation.
2. Sleeping. The times that I do get some good sleep into my schedule are cherished like gold. I love sleeping.
3. Cooking. If you had known me when I was growing up and living with my parents my first few years as an adult, you would think I would be a terrible cook. I can admit my father and brother used to throw down in the kitchen and I was only there to eat it all up. I like to try new recipes and I've become a pretty decent cook these last 12 years of my life.
4. My Husband's sense of humor. A nut, he is! (lol) There are days when I feel like death two times over and he can walk in and do or say the craziest, funniest thing and I can't help but to crack a smile. I appreciate Him for that. This picture was on his birthday and He felt the need to put on this wig and take a photo. (lol)
5. A hot cup of green tea in the morning. I don't drink coffee so a coffee cup full of hot green tea in the morning to warm the engine is perfect.
6. Photography. I never realized how much I like taking pictures until about 3 years ago. Although I don't like to be in front of the camera, there is a soothing joy that comes over me when I'm doing a photo shoot or just randomly taking photos of something beautiful.
7. Driving. I blame this on my father, who used to let me drive from the stop sign to my house when I was younger. To this day, I can drive a full 500 miles, nonstop. As long as I have gas in the tank and somewhere to go, I'm out!
8. Traveling. Although this is not something I get to do alot, especially with gas prices (and the prices of everything, just about), I love to travel. Preferably by car or train. I'm not a fan of flying but will when I have/really want to. I one day hope to be able to visit the West Indies, from which my family hails.
9. My father. Anyone who knows me, or knows of me, knows that I am a Daddy's Girl. Being the only daughter and oldest child, I was first to have the privilege of his love for his children. He is my hero. My inspiration. My heart. I love my Daddy. :)
10. Sangria. Nothing says relax and enjoy like a cold glass of Sangria. Point. Blank. Period. I love it.
I did it! Off to a great, and easy start, it seems. It was fun. Especially looking for photos to illustrate.
I look forward to completing this list! :)

I missed comment hour last night so I thought I would stop by! I LOVE THIS LIST!
It is always the small things that matter the most and make me the most happy. Thanks for the reminder!

Settle a debate we are having at work- DO YOU think it’s ok for your husband/boyfriend to go out with other women who are “just friends”? Give your two cents {HERE}
What a fun idea! Sangria and sleep always make me happy, too!
lol @ Shell. The two seem to go hand in hand on a long day lol
:) thanks for the comment love ladies.
I love the fact that you are highlighting things that make you happy. So often we focus on the bad, and not the good. This post just put me in a great mood! I look forward to 11-20!
Sangria. Ahh, I remember the first time I had that drink... I was a bit skeptical once I heard the ingredients, but once I took a sip, I was sold. I also must agree with you that sleep is GOD. I literally cannot get enough of it, which puts a dent in my productivity at times, haha!
