Favorites.

Sometimes, I have some things that are my favorites. I'm at work right now staring out the fabulous new windows that we recently acquired, and thought about writing these favorites down. They are in no particular order, just a whole conglomeration of great things. In fact, Kelsey Celeste Jones, I might even make a toast to these things...:)
  • Stars
  • Sunsets
  • Daisies
  • Mountains
  • Cute rocks, not the ugly ones, but you know what I mean, you've seen em, the ones that make you say "oh how cute!"
  • Freshly painted fingernails
  • New socks, especially when you wear them on a hardwood floor
  • A perfectly placed witty comment. Not sarcasm as much, but irony- it's so much funnier.
  • When the underdog team makes a victorious win. For example, Boise vs. Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.
  • Right after you shower after playing hard outside all day, and your skin feels hot cause you got sunburned. Does that make sense? I love that.
  • When a long standing prayer is answered in a way you didn't expect. It just shows the Lord has such a hand in your life.
  • Finishing something you have worked really hard on. Especially something that you were that close to giving up on, but you persevered.
  • Opening a brand new jar of peanut butter or sour cream and it's perfectly smooth on top, and then sticking a spoon in it and squishing it. That's fun.
  • The sound of a tennis ball hitting a racket.
  • A good nap
  • When people play with your hair
  • Freckles
  • Doing better on a test that you expected.
  • When snow is falling outside and it's silent and white and peaceful.
  • A good water fight
  • Working with Kelly Thomson. Sorry everyone else, he is just really fun to work with. Who else will make up fake vacations to the Himalayas with me in between calls?
  • Wrestling with someone and laughing the whole time
  • Finding a unique connection with someone, either something you both really love, or something you both can't stand.
  • People.
  • The school supplies aisle, especially when it's the mid-July. It makes you get excited for school again!
  • When something tricky works out in a way you didn't expect.
  • A random text that makes your day.
  • Running into old friends
  • Fresh paint
  • A fresh start
  • Emilie Laura Jackie Lucille Wright
  • When you are running you and you just feel awesome, like you could go forever.
  • Warm homemade bread
  • Other people's birthdays
  • Kids
  • Using a brand new pen
  • Finding a scripture that is just perfect for you right at that moment
  • Those moments when you actually realize, like it just clicks in your head and your heart, how much Heavenly Father cares for you, and how much He is aware of you, and your life.
There is so much more, but that is what's coming to my mind right now. Gah, I love life. And every single thing in it.
