Thought I’d keep it simple today… and just set the tone for y’all to have a FABULOUS week.
But I have one challenge for you this week… try to find ONE thing each day that makes you HAPPY.
Here are a few things that I JUST found today that gives me a little extra pep in my step!
I used to play with this fashion designer kit for HOURS… nonstop. Surprising, right? lol
A favorite photo of mine from my iPhone from this past summer on the Cape… love how this pretty rose is peeking around the fence – like to see what is going on out there!
You know its going to be a great day when you see a flutterbye… they are magical!
One more reminder for Monday that you can tackle whatever comes your way…
I hope you accept my challenge to find ONE thing each day that makes you smile…
BONUS: If you want to reeeeally get into this challenge I would add one more FUN piece to this… take a photo (one a day) of what made you smile. Create a new folder of photos on your computer or on a site like SnapFish so that 6 months from now you can look back and remember the best part of each day!
Happy Monday!!
love that bonus idea!

Think you’ll give the BONUS idea a try? I think you should… 😉
I like the idea of your challenge & I enjoy that you’re doing motivational Mondays as well. It’s definitely tough starting up again and having to go back to work (**yawn**) but having these quotes and seeing your positivity definitely helps! xx, adaatude.com
Thanks! Keep that positivity going all-week-long!! 🙂
Oh my goodness!! I had those fashion plates, too!! They were so much fun!! <3

I mean… they were the BEST, right?
Such great inspiration on a Monday that started out at 69 degrees in the south (that means cold lol). Thanks for this pick me up, the rose peeking out to say hi is my favorite haha! =)
That rose looked so pretty (and adorable) peeking out… how can one NOT smile seeing that?!
I was thinking about this last night, that a lot of times it’s not the big moments that really make me happy but choosing the little moments to really enjoy and they are often the ones that make me happy! Fall candles, a cool breeze, a cloudless sky…Great reminder! xo

Great idea! It’s always my goal to focus on the positive and family photos or inspiring snaps are a great way to do that.

The fence photo is beautiful with the flower poking through. It is saying “here I am!” I am learning that I really am stronger than I ever knew myself to be.
I totally remember those fashion plates! I LOVED them!
