1. The weather is amazing.
2. My blog reader is down from 1,339 unread blogs to 513. That's progress, people.
3. The kids and I had a great day shopping including buying one top, one pair of pants, (with 20 and 30% off coupons) a pair of clearance sandals, and Season 1 of iCarly making the ride home very peaceful.
4. Olive Garden's never-ending pasta bowl.
5. Starbucks iced raspberry mocha.
6. The house is somewhat picked up and the laundry is caught up.
7. I found super cheap birthday party supplies and made Claire's party invitations on Scrapblog.
8. In 50 minutes the kids will be in bed and I will retire to the couch with my drink in one hand and the remote in the other.
9. Perfectly brewed iced tea.
10. Two complete strangers told me what good kids I had today.

What wonderful little things we have filling up our lives. And how great to be acknowledging and thankful:)
(Now I am really wanting a iced raspberry mocha...yum!)
Hey that does sound like a great day!! Don't you love it when you get compliments about your kids from strangers?!! Actually anyone! ;o)
The weather here is beautiful too! Fall will be here soon! So excited!
It sounds real fine, Mrs.John Deere Mom, real fine. I can feel the contentment.
good thing they were perfect strangers or they would have known better LOL.
sounds like a GREAT day to me!! i dream of the day that i get a compliment that both my boys are well behaved!! (if its not one, its the other) daddy has to make a mad dash through the mall today after the 2 year old sprinter, oy!!!
I would have added that you didn't have to be at school.....=) Thank God for weekends.
YAY for good things! Dress Barn coupons???
I think number ten is the best! It always makes me feel good! (Except when it happens right after I have told them how awful everyone probably thinks they are!) LOL
Love your new header!
Man, the teeny tiny amount of times my kiddos are actually behaving out in public and someone comments, makes me want to cry! Then, I quickly get over it playing ref and breaking up a fight.
Sounds like you have a lot going for ya! ;) I've never heard of scrapblog but I'm going to check it out...
I would say that's a great list! Buying things cheap is such a rush for me. I was in Kohl's yesterday and I got the shirts I bought even cheaper than they were tagged. Now that is a good day. lol
WHat a great day! Now I want Starbucks....
Awww, number ten is my favorite!! I LOVE your new header--it's fantastic!! Hey, there's a question on my blog today that you might be able to answer--stop by for a visit! :)
Sounds like a fantastic day! Left you something on my blog!
Found you through Bren :-)
I have to tell you something I am a huge fan of office supplies too, lol. It must be the teacher in us :-)
I have to give you props for getting your reader down from that high of a number. I am bad...I mark all read.
OOH! Olive Garden has never ending pasta bowl again! Thanks for sharing! :)
That is a great day for us too. We found a fun new things to do with the kids this weekend and I finished it off with a caramel mochiata and your deliciously postitive blog post. Thank you for the perfect end to a great day!
OOOOOOOOOOOOo I have to try me one of these.....Starbucks iced raspberry mocha
Love the new blog design!
Great list! Just stopping by from SITS to say hi. We live on a farm too, I love the picture banner at the top of your blog, it looks great.
Sounds like you had a great day! I love Olive Garden's never ending pasta bowl! :)
Yes, iCarly makes my children extremely happy, too!
And now I'm very hungry for pasta. :)
You know your kids have behaved impressively when a total stranger comments on them! Congrats, mom!
just stopping by from SITS to say hi; hope you'll do the same.
Number 10 can make any day a great day :) Love your new photo collage header, you're so cute!
That does sound like a great day! I could go for some Olive Garden!
Wow. I absolutely love Olive Garden!!! I am really glad that people are continuing to find good on a daily basis. It seems to be a trend with some of the blogs I frequent.
Okay I need to try that pasta bowl! And I need to get a day like that...but the Gods must be mad at me!
Sounds great! I'd be rejoicing too. ;o)
There really is not a lot better than hearing perfect strangers compliment you on your children, is there? Especially at the end of a crappy day, it's like the heavens open up and God says "Good job!"
:-)
I'm loving the list all very good things.
Aw, #10 is super nice :)
