My Favorite Things


I am participating in Thrifty Decor Chick's Favorite Things post today. This was a pretty easy one for me! (I am a woman who knows what I like!)

Arobonne is the best skincare EVER!!!!



YUMMY


I think we all know how much I love this store!

Best makeup ever!!!

My 3 Favorite People!!! I love my boys!


These next 3 things are my favorite worldly possessions:
My husband gave this to me on our wedding day. When we dated in high school he would meet me after class and would walk me to my locker... One day he met me in the hall and gave me a magazine cut out of a field of flowers and said "Look, I got you flowers". I kept this magazine cut out and 8 years later when we got married he had my mom dig thru my high school memory box and he had it blown up and framed. This is truly the most amazing gift I have ever been given.


This bible was given to me by my great-grandfather on the day that he performed my dedication service when I was a baby. Inside he wrote me a note and listed all the family members in attendance that day. This is my most priceless possesion and will be passed down to my children one day.


This is my favorite picture! It is me, my sister and our dad. I think I was about 5...super precious! (I was too lazy to scan it so I just took a pic of it)


I hope you enjoyed the list of my favorite things!

Oh Jessica, that is SO incredibly sweet about the flowers! It made me all googly. :) Really. And I'm with you on all of this, just change that Diet Coke to regular and you've got me. What is the skincare brand? I can't see the label well enough.

What a great list! I love the flower pic... how special, and the bible is so full of meaning.

I loved all your crafts in the previous post. I want those coasters, you did a beautiful job on everything. The feathers on the tree are great, I would have never thought of that.

Thanks for your comment on the whole church thing! I'm glad I finally made a decision and feel good about it.

I like your blog. I hope you don't mind I added you to my blogroll. Your boys are cute! I can't imagine having 2....I am loving it and struggling with one at the same time!!

I have no idea where she got it. But, she orders some stuff from a catalog called personal creations. I think they have a website. Also, I have heard rumors of a dinner this weekend? Do you know any details?

MAC eye shadow is my favorite thing in the whole world! :)

Awe! with my bottom lip out. That was really sweet. What a thoughtful husband you have. My husband gave me flowers at school (about 8 years before we were married) one time and I got so embarrassed, I didn't like the big show like other girls and I don't think he's given me flower since. That was about, hmmm, 15 years ago! :( Now I wished I'd jumped up and down and made a BIG fuss! Or maybe a little paper cut out would have done just fine!
