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!

We Have Tile!

I just got my kitchen tile installed.  Yes, it still needs grout, but it looks so good that I thought I would share my excitement!


Now if I could just get those cabinets painted...

Recap 2011

Happy Birthday Mom.
A thoughtful gift from my sweet Aidan on my birthday.
Owen spent a few months constantly on the "phone" (He would use anything that could pass as a phone - although I could never get a pic of him talking on his favorite phone choice - a banana.)


Owen's first swimming lessons.


Brotherly Love - a sometimes occurrence...
Aidan's "school friends" birthday party.
I wish I had a picture of me with the kids!

First day of 4th grade.
