10. Buying something for someone just because
11. Being friends with someone that won't judge you for acting insane, and joining in with you instead

Best Friends

Best friends are just the greatest things out there. I really have nothing else to say except that they are just simply, the best. Today my best friend, without knowing I was not having a very good morning, left me a funny little note in my locker and I laughed at it all the day long! She still doesnt know that it was the reason my day turned out to be so great. So now all I have to say it, thanks!

This is me and Michelle in our New Orleans mission trip. She is doing all the work and I am serenading her with our favorite, none other than the fresh-out-of-rehab Aaron Carter. Classic moment.

The List

Alright. It's happening. I'm making a list. A list of the little things that makes us all happy, we just never realize it. It's called, The List.
  1. The moment you become best friends with someone
  2. Making up captions and putting them to peoples faces/reactions
  3. The melted whipped cream that sits upon the top of your scolding hot coffee
  4. A really, really, really good song
  5. Picking names for pets
  6. Babies making faces and babies laughing
  7. Everything about babies
  8. The inside joke you have with your friend that neither of you know how it started

I just want to say that chicken noodle soup is one of the greatest ideas ever brought forth upon this earth.

New Orleans

I went to New Orleans this summer for a mission trip and it was so fun! I loved going down there to help people. We talked to the homeless, cleared yards with grass 6 feet tall, and ran a day camp for the local kids. As much as I loved doing all of those things, especially talking to the homeless, these pictures were the best part about going down there. My friend Maggie in the top left is just the cutest thing I have ever seen and I adore this photo of her! Obviously, the beignets were to die for and the scenery was gorgeous. I just thought I would share all of my favorites :) They make me happy!

Washed by the Water

Washed by the Water by Needtobreathe. This song makes me so incredibly happy, everytime I listen to it. Everytime. No matter if I am already happy, if I am sad, if I am being weird or awkward like usual this song just puts me in a good mood. I dont know what it is about Needtobreathe but I adore them oh so much, its getting to be unhealthy. On a slightly more serious note, I think this song can be pretty convicting. Its simple, but thats what makes it so. I love listening to it and realizing that all the worries I have have absolutly no value in this world, and I love that feeling!! I am washed by the water and there is nothing that is going to change that!

This is the song!

Oh and I started reading The Help and I just read the part where Constantine tells Skeeter that we have to wake up in the morning and decide right then and there if we are going to make today a happy day or if we are going to let today be a sad day. We have the power to make our own happiness, so why dont we use it? Hmm...
