When my mother-in-law looks at my two little guys and sees the pure joy in their faces, the almost giddiness they display for no apparent reason, she says, "Happiness Is!" As I made the decision to start a blog, I asked my son what I should journal about? His short to-the-point answer was "Happiness." When he said that I immediately remembered this phrase from my mother-in-law, hence the title for my blog. Life is so crazy and it is passing me by extremely fast. So, with some inspiration from my little sister, I'm on a quest to record these moments of happiness and joy. Wish me luck!

My Awesome Brother

I've been dreaming of updating the tile in the entryway and on the fireplace for a few years now. My brother came to make my dreams come true this weekend.


Step 1: Demolition (Fun)

Step 2: Prep for Tile (Backerboard not fun)

Step 3: Lay Tile (hours later...kinda fun),

Step 4: Look at Pretty Tile and Smile (Really fun)


Step 5: Clean Up Mess (I'm sure you know the answer to this one)
Step 6: Wait (no, no, not another unfinished project...),
Step 7: Grout (I'll let you know how this goes - I'm on my own for this step).
Thank you Shawn!!!
