32 Things That Make Me Happy

Today I'm linking up with two of my favorite bloggers, Sarah and Erin. When I saw a tweet last night at four o'clock this morning mentioning this link up I was such a happy camper. One, it kind of feels like a cheat day. Someone else is telling me what to write about. Two, there is so much to be happy about on a daily basis and sometimes it's nice to stop and smell pick 32 roses and stick them in a pretty little vase that is an empty blog space.
1// The number one thing making me happy lately are the gorgeous spring sunsets. I love that at the end of any rough day there is a small reminder in how beautiful the world can be. Slightly obsessed.
2// Dancing. I love real dancing (you know like ballet,) drunk dancing and dancing on the top of a 50 foot rock during a sunset. 

Yes, this was a little terrifying. Anything for an Instagram.

3// Music. Songs that take all of my scary thoughts and serenade me until I think everything is okay. 

4// A clear sky full of stars. Imagine the whole world being under one sky. Especially the people you want to be around but can't. They all see the same thing.

5//Cadbury eggs season. Okay, so this season is lasting a solid 6 months but I am okay with it because  we only get one chance on this earth and Cadbury eggs are maybe the closest we will get to heaven. 

6// Fenway Park. America's most beloved ballpark and Shannon's most beloved summer destination. Next to Mayflower beach on Cape Cod that is.

7//  Coffee. I'm a girl who appreciates her caffeine. 

8// Friends that know when you need them without having to say so. Those are the best. 

9// Random flowers.  I don't like Valentines day flowers. I want random flowers just because someone was thinking about me. Better yet, make them pink and make them peonies. I will love you forever. 

10// A glass of wine a day. A good day, a bad day or just to relax. It really is magical for any circumstance. 

11// Sweating. I know this is so gross but I love when I actually sweat. If it is due to an awesome workout, well that means I'm accomplishing something. If it's because I'm laying on the beach- well, I'm laying on the beach and all is right. 

12//Feeling small. When I stand at the foot of the ocean or under the stars my problems don't seem quite so bad after all. 

13// Lululemon clothes. That makes me sound like a brat but any company that makes it so that I don't have to wear a bra and my but looks great. I'm in. 

14// A job that allows me to do this after my boss leaves. 

Hi Fallan! 

15// Two jobs that provide a paycheck and smiles every. damn. day. 

16//Hockey. Give me a goal, a fight, a good penalty- I want it all. 

17// When my makeup comes out perfect and I look in the mirror for like a second and think "hey your eyes look nice today, Shan." Just me? moving on.

18// Fresh fruit. 

19// The dysfunction that is my relationship with my best friend and cousin, Katherine. 

"Wait, what?"

20// A full bank account. For a little while at least. On that note, I should pay my credit card bill.

21// Country concerts. Lots of tailgating, a few ridiculous pictures, a dash of love and a whole bunch of singing. 

22// Sundresses and flip flops. I would wear this everyday if I could. Add a wedge and a statement necklace and I'm prepared for any occasion.

23// Colors. I have always loved mixing colors. 

24// Traveling and making plans to travel. I wish I could be a gypsy that travels the world with nothing but a backpack and flip flops. Warm parts of the world, obviously.

25// Driving with the windows down and country music up as loud as I can stand it. 

26// The first moment of a vacation when you are overwhelmed with excitement, anticipation and relaxation. Woah, what? Yep, it is perfection.

27// Blogging. I love writing in these blank pages everyday and I particularly love this post. 

28// Festive selfies when everyone is watching and I just don't care. Fourth of July- Yolo! Just kidding.

29// Morning runs along the beach.

30// Wedding planning via pinterest with no desire to get married anytime in the near future. 

31// Hoodies and sweatpants in front of a warm fire. 

32// New love.
