100 Happy Days: Week 4 & 5

I got a little behind on posting so I did two weeks+ at one time to get you all caught up in my happiness. I hope maybe this has influenced you to at least look for the happinesses in every day life. I am really focusing on those and not the negative things. What good is it to dwell on that when you can smile and be happy?!

Here are Weeks 1, 2 & 3

Day 23:
Running has been going well for me lately. A little nagging knee thing is happening so I am taking more days off but my time/mile is getting closer to where I want to be!
Day 24:
Here is where my geeky side comes out because I completely and totally loved the #PRSMS at Marquette. Learning that the Brewers use one gal to run multiple social media sites for the team really surprised me but made me happy too! One gal can do it all!
Day 25: 
Eat all the pumpking things! I love pumpkin and the all of these rock. Ok the Reese’s is just thrown in for it’s shape but you can’t beat sweet & salty at the same time! 🙂
Day 26: 
Again I went to Lapham with a friend and did some pretty hardcore running. My knee definitely felt it after this one. But seeing these beautiful deer that didn’t spook too much when we were near was really awesome! I hope to make it to Lapham this week and get some great pics of the fall leaves!

Day 27: 
 My friend Caroline invited my mom and I and another friend and her mom to her church’s annual Mother/Daughter Banquet. It was a wonderful time where the men of the church waited on us for dinner. Many laughs were shared and we all really enjoyed ourselves.

Day 28: 
I forgot to post yesterday’s happy. Spending time with friends new and old and celebrating birthdays!!! â€ª#‎100happydays‬ â€ª#‎day28‬
Bonus photo – I didn’t post a picture of the day but found this after the fact. Beers were large, lines were long, but we all had fun. 

Day 29:
Spent the afternoon with my mom watching the Packers win, hemming up some of my pants and making Banana Blueberry bread. We each got a loaf and it was so tasty!
Day 30: 
Started a new book – a recommendation from Lauren Conrad (she knows what I like to read and we never even met). So far this one is pretty good. An almost 20-year-old finds out she has a decade left of site and decides to change her life plan to do all she can while she can still see. 
Day 31: 
Fall is here and I made my favorite fall soup – Butternut Squash/Apple soup. Sooooo good! 
Day 32 & 33:
I didn’t post yesterday, but this is what made my last two days happy. Meeting up with friends and trying new places! â€ª#‎100happydays‬ â€ª#‎day32‬ &‪#‎day33‬ ðŸ˜€
 Day 34: 
I love pumpkin beer. I bought so much last year that I actually had some leftover to drink again at the start of this year’s season. I can’t drink them in the summer because they are too heavy but it’s all I want to drink from September to March 🙂  This was an excellent one and I may need to find more of it. Woodman’s has had the best selection so far. 

Day 35: 
Saturday was a bummer weather day and so I decided to spend it cleaning and cooking. I made a broccoli cheese soup (with Gouda!), Roasted squash and sweet potato soup, gryo meat in the crockpot and pasta with pesto sauce. I have a fridge full of food now so I don’t have to worry about what to make this week for meals. 

Day 36:
 My niece & nephew are my world and I got to spend a lot of the day with them. Alex is growing into such a smart little man asking all sorts of questions and helping me back cookies by counting out the Reese’s for on top. We might have eaten a few. And Maddie is my little sweetheart sharing big smiles and belly laughs with me all afternoon.
