10 Things That Made Me Happy This Week

Happy Friday! Today, I'm linking up with Charlotte, Lindsay, and Beth for their weekly happy and grateful list link-up.

1. I made a red velvet banana bread loaf, and the kids really enjoyed it, especially Michael. I added some cream cheese frosting to it, and it was so delicious.

2. We went to the fair and had a great time. We enjoyed the rides and bought some fried Oreos (one of my favorite treats!). 

3. Since we're on fall break, I've been indulging in random naps, and it's been so nice, but also somewhat strange to be able to take a nap in the middle of the day.

4. This video almost made me cry happy tears. I absolutely love the Good News Movement Instagram page. I've said this many times, and I'll say it again: we can all benefit from more good news and less bad news. 

5. On repeat: Dracula by Tame Impala

6. Love, love, love this collage by Daria Gushchina. I've been so inspired by her work that I may try my hand at collage. I also love that I recently learned about a new-to-me artist, Mark B. Hoffman, thanks to Daria's take on his prompt.

7. Colorful patchwork witch's hat sculptures. Oh my goodness, I really want to make one of those.

8. Currently reading: Pocket Bear by Katherine Applegate. I was lucky enough to get an arc of Applegate's upcoming book, Pocket Bear, and it is such a delightful book. 

9. I absolutely loved #11 on Brittany's list of 11 Ways to Decorate for Autumn & Halloween. 

10. We're planning to go check out costumes and watch a movie this weekend. I'm also excited to visit the farmer's market and purchase some seasonal fruits, vegetables, and treats. 

What made you happy this week?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
