#1. Tulips.
One of my favorite flowers. I love their shape, I love their color, I love how they droop a little sometimes. I droop sometimes too. They make me smile.
#2. Buttons.
I have a bowl that I collect buttons in. All shapes, all colors, all sizes. I can envision someday sitting down with a little person and going through each button and talking about it's shape, it's color, it's size. Each button perfectly created. Oh my heart smiles.
#3. Little Chocolate Donuts.
I have a thing for chocolate. I have a thing for donuts. I have a thing for little chocolate donuts. You know, those little ones that leave that film in your mouth afterwards? I love them. I have been known to eat an entire bag...or tub of them. the end. smiling.
#4. Scraps of Fabric.
I found these pieces at a store in Fredricksburg. They were 25 cents & 75 cents. I have a thing for cheap things and a thing for funky fabric. It makes me smile.
#5. Old Books.
We walked into an old antique store in Fredricksburg and the entire basement was filled with old books. It looked like a library. It was beautiful. I love the smell of old books. I love imagining the people that owned these books and what they were like. I found an old hymn book owned by Mabel from 1939. Mabel...was she a worship leader? It makes me smile to imagine.
#6. Vintage Flower Earrings.
I found these on an etsy sight and fell in love with them. They match a vintage necklace I have, that my sister gave me. I just love them. So cute.

Things That Make Me Smile

Lake House Getaways:
 Time away to rest, write, worship, be.

Hammocks:
Swinging in them. Sleeping in them. Reading in them.

 Sunsets:
 Overlooking the lake, with guitar in hand, worshiping a beautiful Creator.

Sunrises:
Marveling at its obedience to bring light to the dark.
 
 Lizards:
Still a little unsure of how I feel about this guy. 

 Funky Mailboxes:
 So I thought they were cute.

Small Town Texas Restaurants:
Full of stuffed wildlife & waiters giving out phone numbers.
