I {heart} Feb. 28

I didn't realize that challenging myself to blog every day for 28 days would be so difficult...

I have lots of excuses for not blogging every day, but none of them are very good...there were plenty of distractions: I went on a 3-day vacation, I was sick, I took naps, I was actually social and left the house a few times...blah, blah, blah...

So on the last day of February...

...

finding the tulips that we planted poking through the dirt

looking forward to seeing our house and yard in another season

when my husband makes me laugh and smile

sleeping in

sunshine

the sparkles in the sidewalks in Las Vegas

good hair days

watching movies

spending time with my families

having a clean house (even if it only lasts a day or two)

I {heart} Feb. 11

...

making lists
(to do lists, I like lists, shopping lists, packing lists, wish lists, project lists, all kinds of lists)

plants
(specifically my bamboo plants at home and my china doll plant at work)

waking up easy, not rushing to get ready, and then getting to work on time

I {heart} Feb. 10

...

MY DAD!

his unconditional love and support

his dedication to our family

our daddy-daughter dates

his love of random facts and trivia

his sense of humor and goofiness

sharing our love of food and eating, especially sauces

his love of things that are smooth
(rocks, my hair in a pony tail, his golf club with layers and layers of paint, a baby's head, etc.)

his eclectic wardrobe

his ability to influence our pet chicken with a bottle of bbq sauce

his hugs

Happy birthday, pops! I love you!

road trips

going to the beach

snorkeling
(it takes me a while to get over my claustrophobia,
but then it's amazing)

I {heart} Feb. 3

I read my friend Brecken’s blog often. She is a very entertaining writer! I really enjoy visiting her blog to read all the fun tidbits she shares about her life. Her most recent blog has inspired me to blog every day during the month of February.

In honor of the month of February, the month of red and pink, hearts, love, and things that are warm and fuzzy I am challenging myself to post some of the things that I {heart}. I am a few days late, but I will attempt to make up for the 2 days that I missed along the way.

...

snuggling with my kitties
(for being so little they sure do put off a lot of heat!)

reading a good book
(a book that is so good that you can't put it down)
