...10 things that make me smile...

...i had a lovely surprise with my cup of tea this morning...

... one of my favourite people in this ol'bloggy world...
...sent me this...

...well...just getting it made me smile...
...yep a big old mad grin as i'm going about my morning 'stuff'...

...sharon...
...whose life i step into in a very healthy...
...'omg...i want to live your gorgeous life in that beautiful rambling french house'...
...kind of way...

...asked me to talk about 10 reasons  i am happy in my life...
...depending on the day {!!!}...
...my list may not make 10...
...or it may make 10 before breakfast...

 ...so today's list...

1. my 3 bambino's- my kids make the top of this list regardless of the day & how tired i am :)

2. my husband- ritchie- & our game of *who's this* with radio lancashire blarring in the kitchen...
{involving major dance moves by us & muffled laughter kids...}

3. laughter- my kids on the trampoline outside my sewing room in hysterics...

4. sunshine-this needs absolutely no explaining- i'm an aussie...

5. sewing- it makes my heart sing, my days a joy...& keeps me 'employed'...

6. travel- or the *planning* of... the world is just too incredible not to see...regularly...

7. food- again my aussie genes require bbq's & regular asian feasts...preferably at home..
...& cooked together with my husband & a wine...

8. books- beside the bed...on every shelf...in the kids school bags...
{& in the form of *home mags*!}

9. re-cycling- it's why we relocated to england & it keeps ritchie busy helping 'to save our kids world'..

10. blogging- it makes me smile & takes me into the lives of amazing, caring, creative women...


...i can't really ask for much else on a daily basis...

...maybe a new pair of heels...
...another week in venice...
...the drive to exercise everyday...
...or world peace...

...for today these 10 things that make me happy, are enough...


...& now to pass this onto 5 other blogging gals who make me smile...

...& a big thankyou again to sharon for making me grin into my tea this morning...
