A few of my favorite things!

Just wanted to take a minute to introduce you to some of my favorite things right now!

I am love, love, loving these yellow flowers on the bush next door. Since I am not really into the whole gardening thing (although I would like to be), I am not sure what their called. They smell so yummy and look so springy! Love it!

My new Sanuks! Duane has had a pair of these for a while now. It took me a while to become sold on these, because quite honestly I am not thrilled with the way some of them look. However, there was a store in Florida that had a huge selection of them and I fell in love! They are the most comfortable shoes ever! If your looking for a comfortable pair of shoes..check out their website!

My small group is currently reading Crazy Love by Francis Chan. I have LOVED this book so far. It is all about the "crazy" love Jesus offers us. It was a great book to help my heart prepare for Easter. It is hard for me to wrap my mind around why God would send his only son to die on the cross for us. You and me. Totally undeserving sinners. The thought blows my mind. However, this book does a great job at digging deeper into this great love that we so do not deserve. Man, I am so grateful for God's grace!

I am loving the new summer scents from Bath and Body Works. I am a Yankee Candle girl through and through, but my mom picked me up a couple of these candles and I really like the way they smell. They are fresh, summery (is that a word?) scents that remind me of the warm, school free times to come!

My (ok, our) MacBook Pro! We have had this laptop since mine went kaput in November. Every day I love it more and more! Duane would say I love it a little too much as I am constantly on it. I think another Mac is in our near future because Duane is getting tired of me hogging this one. Duane and I can safely say we will never own anything other than a Mac ever again! :)

One of my favorite parts of having a dog is taking her on long walks! We have been taking lots of walks with Carrie and her dogs and they are so much fun! It is quite a sight to see Carrie and I with our three dogs strolling down the streets of Plainfield. Carrie's other dog is not pictured because she quite frankly can't stand my in-your-face dog. Ha! We have become quite the walkers since we decided to sign the dogs up for the Mutt Strut at the Speedway. If you have a dog, check it out. We're really excited about it! :)

I have become quite obsessed with taking pictures. Actually, I have always been obsessed with taking pictures, so you can just imagine how much this obsession has grown. Duane and I recently got a Nikon D40 that we love! It's a very affordable, high quality camera. I'm no professional..but it's fun!

Ok, cheesy I know, but I really love our family Easter picture (and of course the guy and dog) so it just had to make my favorite things list!

Well there you have it! Some of the things I love right now! What are some of your most recent favorite things?
