Day in Mankato with my Hubby

Matt and I were able to spend the day together in Mankato today. Due to my work and travel schedule, Matt and I haven't been able to spend a lot of time together recently, so we took advantage of a Saturday together.

Our day started with breakfast at the local bagel shop. The bagel shop is our favorite places in Owatonna. It is a nice local place to enjoy a quick, delicious breakfast together.

After breakfast, we drove to Mankato. The drive over was a great opportunity for us to catch up on what we are up to and things that are going on. 45 minutes of conversation with each other was great. Once we got to Mankato, we drove around and looked at the homes that Matt is working on. It is always fun to see the progress they are making and the great homes that he gets to work on.

Following the tour of the home Matt is working on, we enjoyed some shopping without much luck. We did a lot of looking and purchased a few small things for the house. Shopping is something that Matt and I love to do together. It is always a great time.

After shopping, we went to Mt. Kato for a snow tubing for a company function. It was a lot of fun. It was all man made snow which made the conditions rather slippery, but we made the best out of the situation. I did not like to go down the hill by myself because I would get turned around and end up speeding down the hill backwards, so Matt and I would go down together which was so fun!!

Make me happy...

Sometimes the smallest things can make you the happiest. Today when I was cleaning I started thinking of these little things and  I thought I would put together a list of random small things that make me happy.

* Puppies
* Flowers, specifically Gerber daisies and dahlias.
* Greeting cards
* Getting mail (one of my favorite things in life in general)
* Pictures and being surrounded by photos of my friends, family, and puppies
* Black yoga pants and an oversized sweatshirt
* Yankee Candles...vanilla scented.
* Cupcakes
* New white athletic socks
* Decorating for Christmas....actually all things Christmas (movies, music, decor, time with family)
* Burnt hot dogs in the summer
* James Patterson Books...nothing beats a good book!
* Pedicures
* Lincoln Park After Dark nail polish
* Fun, funky jewelry
* Long walks
* Ugg boots
* Music....country and pop are my favorites
* Random text from a friend that just makes your day
* Cookie cutters
* Pandora charms

This is just to name a few.
