Can't believe I'm first! Love the back to school photos. I'm a little jealous your kids have started school already. We still have a couple of weeks.

I found your blog today through Mommylovesstillettos. I LOVED your happiness project...and love that you have decided to keep it going every week. It was fun looking through the others who linked up. I am new to this bloggy world and am having a blast getting to know people this way!

You're picture of the first day of school is precious! And I loved that you had the guts to post your own! My youngest is about to start kindergarten and I am hyperventilating...I think I going to be blogging lots once he is gone all day! I will need a distraction for sure!

Thanks for sharing your world with us!

p.s. I tried to grab your button, but all that is showing on my blog is the code. UGH. I have been trying to figure it out for an hour now. Sigh...I feel like an idiot! Can you help?!
