my 100 favorite things

Gosh, I'm back so soon...The first time I read Jolene’s blog, she listed 100 things of anything and everything on her mind. This is the blog that got me thinking about becoming a blogger myself. I thought it was so fun and I learned some funny/cute things about Jolene that I didn’t know. As I was driving home today, proud of my accomplishment of actually following through and becoming a blogger, I was thinking about all my favorite things, hence my “100 Favorite Things” list – inspired by Jolene and of course, Oprah’s “Favorite Things”. I LOVED doing this! I totally recommend doing it too. Please note that these are not in any particular order, it’s really just a brain dump…
