My Happy List

Soooo HAPPY because I will be basking in the awesomeness of my family this weekend.

My sister Meg and her littlest are here from Arkansas for a quick visit.

She came to run a race with my sister Amy and Big Daddy. It's a 10 mile run. Meg will be running for time. Amy and Big Daddy will be doing more of a walk and run, pacing themselves.

She came to California for a RUN?

Yeah, I heard you...I hear everything.

She used the race as a good reason to escape Winter in Arkansas...did I mention it has been in the 70's here?

AND my mom missed her so she flew her out.

HAPPY!

So, as you are reading this, I am HAPPILY enjoying family time.

I am super HAPPY about all of the people who have linked up their posts for my bloggy Enable Your Email Revolution.

Photobucket

There was one post in particular that I really enjoyed. Lu gave an entire tutorial (with pictures) over on Housewife Eclectic on how to enable your email. Brilliant. LOVE it!

I am going to continue to collect links until Feb 1. Then I will draw from the links and send one lucky person a mini Pinktastic package.

Speaking of Pinktastic Swaptastic...I finally have all of my packages wrapped and ready to box up to send to my Swap partner Impulsive Addict. It took me a long time to get them all wrapped and I know they will get smooshed in the box so I wanted to take a picture. So I laid them out on a cute blanket and when I came back with the camera I found this sleeping puppy.


All that pink makes me very HAPPY!

Knowing that PINKtastic packages will be making their way to people's homes in a week makes me HAPPY too.

Are y'all getting to know your partners?

Connecting people makes me HAPPY so, get out there and make a bloggy friend, or really what is the point of the swap? Right?

I have been really enjoying getting to know my Pinktastic Swaptastic partner...did you hear she is even taking Flat Mamarazzi to a GNO? HAPPY!

Flat Mamarazzi makes me HAPPY too. I am so excited that so many people want to take my Flat out on the town...woo hoo!

OH I am also HAPPY that so many people linked up their Happy Lists last weekend. We even had a few newbies, love that! (holla!)

And, as promised I have selected one of our Happy List participants for a prize...one of my Happy List items and a few other little items from Happy Lists of the past. The winner is Rachel from the blog From Chasing Crowns to Chasing Chickens.

Congrats Rachel, send me your mailing address and I will ship your goodies to you on Feb 4th when I will be at the post office! I also noticed that Rachel commented on every Happy List. Wow. That. Is. Awesome.

Speaking of goodies. How are y'all loving Taking Back Monday with me? Have you entered for this week's Etsy giveaway? Seriously gorgeous stuff up for grabs. You have until Sunday night to enter, but do not wait. Prizes=HAPPY!

Soooo what is on YOUR Happy List this week? Create your post, don't forget to add this little Happy List button, and link up:

This is NOT a Blog Hop, please only link up your Happy List. Somehow we ended up listed on a bunch of blog hops. Mamarazzi, doesn't do blog hops. This is a link party for "My Happy List," not a cut and paste (thoughtless-comment-that-has-nothing-to-do-with-the-post -that-you-obviously-didn't-read) "I am your newest follower, follow me back" blog hop kinda thing.

I think it's cool she came to Cali just for a run. Ok, well, not JUST to run... but being a runner, I have been looking all over the country for things like that. I'm off to craft my happy list now...

mandy said...

This is a lot of happy!!!

I'm thinking that flat mamarazzi would be a fantastic addition to my Australia trip!! Do you want to visit Australia this Summer??

Your pink swap presents are fabulous! And are motivating me to get to wrapping sooner!

Have a fantastic day!

I'll work up my Happy List and link up soon! I loved doing it last week.

Have fun with your family this weekend!

Here's my happy: I'm happy that the playroom is *almost* completely purged. Also, I'm happy that we are FINALLY moving the video games downstairs where they belong so I can reclaim my living room.

We had mid-70's here in Houston today! Woot! But, it's getting down to 32 again one day next week. Ick.

I love Rachel's blog! She's amazing.

Hope everyone had fun in the run!

I was going to send you a sneak peek picture but realized we don't text... I'm dumb & don't know how to send it direct facebook.

Impulsive Addict said...

I love your happy list! It makes me happy just reading it!

Um...why not do the run with the fam? Are you too good?

Flat Mama had an AMAZEBALL time at the RHOK Out! She is so funny!

I am soooo excited for my swap partner to receive her gift!

Dawn said...

Yep, partying with Flat Mama was a lot of fun at our RHOK Out! We had several Flats there that night. Ha!

Your sister should have came to see you THIS week. This past week in Oklahoma and Arkansas the weather was beautiful. THIS week starting tomorrow is going to be nasty! We are expecting 6-12 inches of snow. I'm kind of excited.

I'm glad you got to enjoy your family time. There really is nothing like it.

Hope you have an amazing week!

Shawn said...

I have a flat Shawn! Yep, that's right Mimi made me one too!

I have my PINKtastic stuff about 95% finished and will start wrapping tomorrow, this has been a fun one!

lila Check said...

All that pink is making me sooooo happy! Enjoy your visit with your family I will be doing the same soon!

Aubrey S. said...

Prizes most certainly do equal HAPPY. I'm so excited about a new piece of jewelry.

Your puppy makes me happy too. Do you think she could come stay with me for a little while?

Red Stethoscope said...

Wow! Those pink packages look awfully tempting...no wonder puppy couldn't resist! I'm going to try and write up an entry soon about enabling comments. As you know, I am now obsessed with it.

Rachel Murphy said...

What a great happy list. Hope you have a wonderful time with your sis. And thanks for the prize. Can't wait. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas. :)

Brandy@YDK said...

lucky IA - that's some pinktastic stuff.

Xazmin said...

So glad you got to spend time with Family. Family is the best. Usually. Mine live 10 minutes away, so sometimes they're not the best.

But usually they are!

Kim said...

I am a little late, but I linked up anyway! Have a super Monday!

cbusch said...

Just wanted to say your Flat Mamarazzi idea and posts are making me smile :)
