Sunny...

I was flipping through the thesaurus, looking for synonyms for the word "Happy"...

Words like 'contented', 'joyous', 'blissful', 'sparkling', 'jubilant', 'delighted' and 'elated' jumped off the page.

The word 'sunny' was also on the list and I felt that it really is the perfect word to use in place of 'happy'....

Sunny = Happy

As I think of things that bring me happiness, sunshine filled days are very close to the top of the list.....

When one feels happy, you exude your own sunshine.

What brings sunshine or happiness to your life??

...


For me....it's the little things....that fleeting moment...that natural element...anything that brings "that" smile or grin to my face and adds that sunshine to my day...


A sunrise through the trees...



Moments of inspiration....



Nature's beauty...



Sunsets at the lake....



..and more sunsets..




Quiet moments with this guy...



Candlelight and nights spent under the stars wrapped up in blankets..



Evenings spent with friends over a good bottle of wine...



Living in a part of the world where we can enjoy all 4 seasons....



Memories of dancing at Camp...



Sand between my toes....



Mountain air and views....



Quiet time at the lake...


Remember to....



Wishing you sunshine and happiness always...

Simple Summer Beauty...


Snap shots of summer around my home and my second home.....Such beautiful simplicity.......




























Whether it be flowers, summer's bounty of veggies, a quiet night in the backyard or a stunning sunset...I hope you take the opportunity to get outside, truly immerse yourself and enjoy the world around you!

The Little Things...

 
I've been looking through my photos from the past few weeks and realized, the moments I have photographed...the moments that make me smile....are those little moments...everyday life...
They are those moments that make me happy and that make up what I am lucky enough to call my life.
 
 
Watching the world go by....
 
 
Mother Nature can be fierce...
 
 
A furry friend enjoying breakfast....
 
 
A collection of namesake jars.....
 
 
Sunrise.....
 
 
A Saturday morning at the market....
 
 
Homemade mac and cheese.....
 
 
Flowers....
 
 
...flowers...
 
 
..and more flowers....
 
 
Letting the sun shine in......
 
 
 
 
Live my life and be happy....The most important thing!
 
Hope you're having a great week!
