10 Things to Smile About – October

Spread the love

A day late and a dollar short, but I’m still here today to share what made me smile in the month of October because there sure were a bunch of things.

So without further adu and in no particular order:

7.  Josie came to live with our family!  Tbug claims her as her dawg (dog).  So cute!  Josie much prefers the water vs my Lab who is a water dog.  Very odd duckling she is!

3.  Found out I missed my calling in life… I found, attended and fell in love with the Kansas City Farmer’s Market.  Although they call it a City Market so I’m not sure if there is a difference or not.  Doesn’t matter, I LOVE it!

1.  We celebrated my daddy’s birthday plus I finally fessed up to a prank I played on the Master Prankster all through September and the first part of October.

8.  Our Running is well in and under way.  So far we’ve kept up… last week was a bit of a challenge but we’re pushing through and that’s what matters.

2.  We attended the Maple Leaf parade and were able to make it to the Marching Band field competition this year.  Ah, such fond memories!

10.  My husband lovingly washed my car keys for me again :).  Everyone needs clean keys every now and again, right?!?!

2.  I finally had to pull my dress pants out of the closet to wear to work.  You can tell how long it has been since I’ve worn dress pants to work…  I don’t care for dress pants so during the summer months it’s capri’s and dresses/skirts!

Yes, that is a crease of dust where the hanger had them folded over…

5.  We threw hubby a surprise Birthday party for his 30th Birthday!!!  He’s such a good sport.  Have I ever told you just how much I love him?

4.  Halloween, Duh!  (Oh btw happy belated Birthday Janna!)

Totally ignore the fact I have Christmas shorts on, a JD Shirt and Camo House shoes, won’t you please?!?!  No one ever said I had to match at 6 in the morning…. and is it me or do my hands look REALLY creepy?

6.  I got to spend some quality time just sitting, enjoying the scenery, being alone with my thoughts and God.  Sometimes it is great to get away from the hustle and bustle!  Btw, if you followed me on Instagram you’d have seen this photo!

9.  We got my nephew so excited about riding horses again he missed my hubby’s surprise birthday party so that he could warm his daddy’s horse up at a local rodeo.  And I lost my horse to my {step}daughter all in one day!

There are 10 there, don’t worry I counted!  Now if you haven’t shared your reasons why you smiled in October, you still have a chance.  Emmy‘s real nice and she’d love for you to link up and share! :).

p.s. Can I bug you to vote for my photos again?  Deets here
