So many things on my Happy List this week.
I have this abalone shell that we got when Big Daddy and I were dating. We actually have 2, he has 1 on his night table for pocket stuff, keys, change etc.This one sits in our family room and it holds pictures from my childhood.
There is something about it that makes me really HAPPY. I grew up going to see my Grandpa Sam and Mima, who lived in a little beach town called Gualala, every Summer. Some of my fondest memories are combing the beach looking for shells with my Mima. So it seems like the perfect place to hold the few pictures I have from my childhood and it just makes me HAPPY.
Big Daddy was in the kitchen making dinner the other night, HAPPY, when I looked over and saw him looking down talking to Coco who was standing there on her hind legs hoping a piece of chicken jumped out of the pan for her.
The whole scene made me smile and feel really HAPPY...just the love and happiness this little dog brings to our life and the sweetness on Big Daddy's face as he is talking to her. OH and the fact that my man was making dinner...hella sexy!
I got a really great email the other day from someone who signed up for SocialSpark using my referral code. They were going on and on about how she had just cashed our her account for the first time, $300!!! Her dryer had died and of course it was an expense they were not prepared for. She was so happy to be able to tell her husband, who was wondering and stressing where the money was going to come from, that she had been making money on her blog. She showed him and the money was in her paypal within seconds.
HAPPY!!! Have you signed up for SocialSpark yet? Those ads can ad up FAST!
And seriously how fun to be able to tell your husband that you are making money blogging...lol.
OK there are only a few spots left for Mamarazzi's Favorite Color Swap...go read the rules for signing up and see if you qualify to participate but HURRY! I am closing the list soon so I can get people matched up to start shopping for their partner's favorite color!

This post, and the pic of Big Daddy & Coco, made me SMILE! Love it. Your happy always makes me happy!
I wish I can earn some money blogging :) That would be really great and it would be real pleasure to tell my husband that :D Social spark is a great page! Nice things to be happy about miss Mamarazzi (I love your nickname) :)
300 bucks! Wowza! :)
Love that picture of Big Daddy and Coco!
I totally remember the abalone shell you kept on your dresser when you were in high school! Seashells always remind me of mima too!
Mamarazzi, I totally messed-up...The first link is to an earlier post. So, so sorry!!! ;P
The abalone shell holding treasured family photos is brilliant, and is one of the best ideas I've seen lately. Big Daddy and Coco are so cute. Dogs are so great, and they are so loyal. What would we do without them?
Thanks again for hosting. I love this party so, so much, and I think about it all during the week. It really helps me keep things in perspective!

Should chicken jump out of the pan, that would be the highlight of that dog's day. :)
A pan with a pan in his hand is always hot. :)
You go, girl! Landed a great life. :D
Aaaaand I meant to say a MAN with a pan....wow, I'm tired. Sorry.

I'm just a new follower to your blog. I love link parties so I'm sure I'll be participating in more of yours. :-)
that is an adorable picture of Big Daddy & Coco. reminds me of my Sophie!
YAY! I grabbed a button and listed MY Happy List over on my blog :-). That was fun! Thanks!
Great list- love seeing the little dog begging- that's a regular thing around here too.
Love that you have and treasure your childhood pics- we don't have pics, but are starting to put the memories on our cooking blog. The kids love hearing the stories and I think it's good they get to know my family (even the not so great parts).
$300, that's crazy awesome! I think I might have to sign up myself.
That is a cute picture of Big Daddy and Coco! Lucky gal to have your hubby cook for you!
Yes, definitely something awesome about a man making dinner. And wow $300! If/when I do sign up for Social spark I will definitely use your referral.
What a great list, your family is beautiful!
I was so excited to see your name pop up on my Baby Canoli Cakes post! I remember you from when I first started blogging 3 years ago. I frequently read your blog, but then lost track of you. So glad to run into you again :)
Awwww LOVE the photo of Big Daddy and your pup! Adorable!
Love the pic of BD and Coco! So cute!
So many wonderful things on your happy list! Thanks for sharing ☺
