10(ish) Happy Things

There's a super cute blogger, Naomi of rockstar diaries, who collects her readers' "10 Things That Make Me Terribly Happy" lists. Then Kristen wrote one a little over a month ago, and I immediately started babbling about what would soon be on mine. Problem was that once I started spouting things off, the list became a bit more than 10. Darn my indecisive nature...

So after much painstaking editing, here goes! My 10 (of many, many) Things That Make Me Terribly Happy:

1. By grace, through faith.
2. Wandering around the city, and "accidentally realizing" that we're just around the corner from a delicious pink Magnolia cupcake
3. Gerber Daisies
4. Decorating the Christmas tree with my family, while the smell of my mom's caramel corn pours out of the oven
5. New Yorky Sundays (Well New Yorky any day, really. But there's just something about Sundays...)
6. Hearing a song that makes me relive a vivid memory, or sometimes just imagine one that hasn't actually happened yet
7. Mr. Sketch markers (especially the red ones. yum.)
8. Ending a long summer day at my beach with a trip to the Rehoboth Boardwalk for a hot fudge brownie sundae at The Royal Treat
9. Getting caught in the rain without an umbrella when I don't have anywhere to be
10. First (and second) kisses

... Well, shoot. I suppose that's technically 11, now isn't it? Sigh, I'm impossible. But let's be honest -- this post has "To be continued" written all over it anyways. :)

And y'all be sure to share your own -- after all, here's to happiness!
