My top Ten. RIght now. January 2010.

Emma today:

To Begin with, the top ten list automatically includes family, My Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ, the house I live in...., my many blessings! AND it is not in any special order (for example I don't REALLY love my van more than Clark learning to walk! ha!)

My current top ten favorite things in my life:

10. Oranges. Oh how i love a juicy orange at this time of year!

9. Paint. You can transform ANYTHING with paint!

8. Reading. I love that I can fly away to another place for a few minutes! AND I love that my new little local library does such a fantastic job of having great books available. Madeline and I attended the first ever Mother/Daughter Book Club and it was delightful!

7. Old stuff. I love old stuff.

6. My cricut machine. Because of my new cartridges - I just love what

I can do with it! Madeline and I have been making these adorable garlands with the 'childs year' silhouettes. LOVE IT!

5. Clark learning to walk. It is about the cutest thing IN THE WORLD. EVER. I love the way he holds his one arm up in the air for balance and the way he reaches out to me from across the room until he gets to me. It's magical.

4. My Eurovan. I cannot really describe how much I LOVE this vehicle. By far the best I have ever had.

3. Scouring garage sales and second hand stores for great finds.

2. Fabric. I am in the middle of a serious love affair with fabric. Especially if it involves polka dots. Can't you just see a beautiful quilt of all dots? Hmmmmm.....

1. My little venture. My tiny little "spot" in the store opens today! I am so excited and am having a great time creating for this. I hope it goes well. This makes me happy right now! My friend Brandi and I have a 6' spot in Wrought'n Apples in Parker CO. My store is called "Life Beautiful" Go check it out - its a wonderful place to wander through and there is something for everyone!

What are YOUR top ten favorite things right now?

I would be interested to hear.

I have also found that with the cold comes beauty. I love the way the fog freezes onto each tree branch, it is lovely! I also love Emma in her green outfit. So cute. And I would really really love it if I had one night where everyone in the family slept the entire night through. Wouldn't that be dreamy?

Well it is the weekend. And that is usually a good thing! I hope yours is a nice one!
