Things that make me happy

It all started with the laundry. As I was starting a load of laundry today, I added some of our new environmentally friendly and septic friendly laundry soap. It smells so good..."blue eucalyptus and lavender" and I thought to myself...this smell makes me so happy! I decided to walk around and take a few pics of other things that were making me so happy today...I was pleasantly surprised by a few. So here we go...


we went for a walk around our property last night and discovered a new little wildflower blooming (the little yellow one) and when I looked out my kitchen window this morning I could see a bunch of them mixed in with the lupines and paintbrushes we have been enjoying for the last few weeks.


This is a lilac plant that was given to us by Erich's aunt, which was originally planted by his Grandma. I am so grateful to have this plant and I remember Erich's Grandma walking us around her garden when I first met her and she was particularly proud of the lilacs. So this is very special.

After taking that pic...I rounded the corner of the house and came across my lovely husband watering our veggie patch...


and we both looked over and spotted this...


these are from the radish seeds I planted...yippee!

Then around the other side of the house...


kids playing in the hammock..love it!
