Sunday Morning Happiness

There's something about the quiet of Sunday mornings that makes me smile.  This particular Sunday morning I am inspired to blog about some other things that have made me smile recently...

Reading my favorite blog - A Cup of Jo.  I happily stumbled upon this blog a few years ago and have been hooked ever since!  It's a daily blog that covers everything from fashion to travel to parenting.  I've found so many great ideas from this blog - gifts (for myself and others :)), fun things to do while in NYC, interesting and easy recipes - this writer has quite the insiders perspective on all things lifestyle.
I've always had a slight obsession with this woman and her music.  There's something about her vulnerable confidence that intrigues me and the tone of her voice brings chills to my arms when I listen to her music.   Her most recent album is one of the best, in my opinion.  I literally CANNOT stop listening to this song...Just Give Me a Reason.  So, so good!
When Wes paints.  He's really talented.  My personal favorites are his black and white paintings...
I love the simplicity. 
Wes is currently working on a top-secret painting to be revealed soon. Stay tuned. :)
My kiddos working hard and enjoying it!  There's nothing better than when you teach a lesson, it goes really well, and the kids are able to turn around and demonstrate the skill on their own.  Here are some of them working together to ask "wondering questions" about their non-fiction reading. :)

 Hope you're having a HAPPY Sunday morning, too!

Happy Birthday to...

...our BLOG!  Can you believe it's been a full year?!  We sat down with a glass of red and some Oreo cheesecake (in honor of National Cheesecake Day), last night, while we read through our posts from our first year.
We stumbled upon a few of our favorites:
1.  Check out our very first post!
2.  This post makes me laugh because each picture perfectly represents our faces and body language before and after our apartment news.
3.  Wes really likes our engagement post.  We had so much fun writing this one, as we reminisced about such a wonderful weekend!

What a year it's been and quite an exciting one is in our future!
