Here's to happiness (with photos)

I've slowly been going through my old blog posts and resizing/tagging them all and I realised it's been well over a year since I put together a 'Here's to Happiness' post (inspired by the lovely Naomi, way back in April 2009! Did you ever write one?)

So here is my latest list... with photos (of course...)

1. Happy post - my new perfect custom ordered brooches from Much Love Illy and a lovely unexpected package from Elizabeth at Rosalilium.

2. New cameras to add to my collection.
I will update my collection image soon promise.

3. Visitors in our little garden
(Note. Thomas took the picture of the squirrel with the posh digital camera,
I just edited it with Vignette to suit...)

4. Yellow yellow yellow!! :)

5. The cutest cat... on a trampoline... enough said.

6. Wearing skirts and dresses
(see also tea...)

7. Taking pictures of pretty horses.

8. Nails that match flowers.

9. Amazing window shopping finds
(I really wish my sunglasses had fit in the pug case)

10. More fun (slightly pixely, oops) jumping photos.
(Also my best friends and that rather amazing vintage skirt I'm wearing... I love it)

What's making you happy right now? Aren't these just the best lists!

p.s. You'd think from these posts that I wear skirts/dresses a lot - I really don't, I love my jeans and it takes a lot of encouragement from Thomas/friends to stop me covering my legs, which is why these photos make me happy.

Weekend with friends are my favourite...

{Me (in a dress!), C and the pretty birthday girl)

P.S. G - as I didn't write you a dedicated post I just wanted to tell you that I adore you, thank you so much for being one of my best friends, I'd be lost without you x

p.p.s. I also like Mr Bee... you may keep him :)

p.p.p.s All GIF's made on Picasion

Little walks...

We've had a rough time in the last few weeks, so we've been trying to have little walks in the evening, just to get out for a bit, relax and get some fresh air...
(we've also been playing lots of Portal 2, hehe, I love it)

Here are some random photos from the walks we've been on around our house... I even took my little fuji instax mini out yesterday now that I've got some film for it, I've missed using that camera.

I'd have loved to have taken more photos but honestly, the weather here has been awful... and its cold, in July. Not impressed. Let's hope the weather remembers it's Summer again some time soon...

p.s.

I'm dropping these babies off to be developed today, they are all from the weekend. I'm so excited.
