Some of the simple things...

I'm not sure if anything quite tops yesterday - Patty-cake on steroids is pretty brillant so bare with me as I try to impress you today with my words ;)

So I was thinking yesterday of some "loves" or probably better phrased as "likes" of mine - the simple things in life that make me grin. I am currently listening to the Adele 21 album so I'll go ahead and add her to the top of the list {{there is no particular order of preference according to favorites}}

1. Adele
This music is perfect for any occasion. Put me in a little coffee shop for hours or out a night on the town {{Hampton Roads that is -haha}} - Adele just puts me in the mood for some good times.

2. Coffee, Coffee, & more COFFEE
Coffee at work, coffee in the mornings, coffee at 2 a.m., coffee with friends, coffee alone....I have a bit of an attachment to coffee.

3. Red doors
I have this odd obsession with red doors. I'm not even quite sure when it begun but whenever I see a quaint little house with a red door, my heart leaps with excitement.

4. Fresh flowers
There's something therapeutic about having fresh flowers in the house to remind me not just of the life I have through Jesus Christ but to remember the beauty He has created in the sheer simplicity of nature.

5. Owls
Whooooooo's judging! haha...that was a pretty weak joke. I do however have an odd obsession with anything that has to do with owls. Now my precious little nephew has taken my place and has the cutest little owl bedroom & bathroom. Check it out on my sister's spectacular blog!

6. Polaroids
There's nothing better than the dated look of a polaroid. With everything going digital now, I truly miss printed photography and especially polaroids.

7. Paper
I have a strange love for paper. I find great joy in going down the office ailse in stores. I love all sorts of paper & journals. However, paper is never as fun when it remains blank - you better believe I will always fill the empty space.

8. Dancing my signature dance move
If you put in a request for the Valencia arm pump, your life will be forever transformed! haha {{for the worse or for the better}} ;)

9. Painting
I wouldn't say I'm great at painting, but when I need to express myself, there is nothing better than a splash of color upon a canvas.

10. Trains
If I hear the sound of a train, I usually smirk a little in excitement. I don't know what it is but I just love trains!

11. Weird toenail polish colors
I'm not a pink and red kind of girl. Sometimes my nails are yellow, purple, turquoise...I don't know, I just love odd colors.
