Top Ten Tuesday!

Going for a quick and easy list today... I can't honestly say it's the top 10, because there are a plethora of pics that fit this description.

Ten Random Pictures that will Always Make Me Happy:

1.  Ahem, I took and edited this engagement pic of Josh and Rach, so of course I like it! lol  I love the muted vintage-feel color and think it's super-cute with the letters - I always prefer pics where the couple looks at each other instead of the camera! :)

2.  This is one of my favorite things about holding babies, when they wrap their tiny little fingers around your finger and just look so snug and safe and secure.  And this is the first time I held my nephew, Jace, the day after he was born!

3.  The hair, the puffy sleeves, the massive earrings, the braces... what's not to love!? lol  Vintage Glamour Shots pic of me and Rach, circa 1993 (my 3rd grade, her 1st grade year).

4.  I've been told numerous times how unsafe this was (we also staged a standoff photo where we all pointed the guns at each other), so spare me the lecture, but I kinda love it that we didn't care at the time.  It's a hilarious Christmas season memory, kinda the way Die Hard is an awesome Christmas movie to me. lol  I love how innocent and delighted we look as we're all holding deadly weapons. :)  I remember thinking mine was preciously cute.  Those tiny guns have so much kick to them, but I was unaware of that at the time.

5.  An iPhone pic I took at the end of my first ambulance ride! lol  After my wreck in July 2011 - no major injuries, but I went to get checked out just in case.  I remember they got a little cracked up that I was feeling good enough to snap a picture, so this pic just makes me laugh! :)

6.  T-man 'helping' Babah as she started to make the fruit salad!  I love his cute little Christmas PJs and his excitement over the little things, and I like Babah's Christmas earrings and shirt, and that there is the chocolate cake Mom and I made in the background.  (This was Christmas Eve 2011, when Mom was still fragile and recovering from several surgeries, so we did a breakfast for dinner theme at home Christmas Eve night with Mom's fam.)  This pic reminds me of all of that, in the best way.

7.  Weird choice, I know, but it does make me happy.  It's just a cutesy pic from Rach's wedding day - wearing her sparkling flip-flops and her 5 bridesmaids in our hot pink heels and turquoise dresses!  (I'm on the far left.)  Cuteness!

8.  This is a JSB pic (Junior-Senior Banquet, because CHA doesn't have proms) of me and several girls from my class.  I really loved my poufy hot pink dress, and I like that the pic is dated!

9.  I really love that no one but Chettles is posed and ready here.  (I also love that even though I wasn't exactly ready, I'm smiling, so it's a good candid shot.)  Just a fun Starbucks night with the group, after a jury trial (which I know bc those are the only days I wear suits.)  Also, I miss that pink iphone cover!

10.  And last but not least, Wintery cuteness at the Rhema lights!  I love each of these girls, and I love that we're all in coats and hats, and I especially love that I have on red, white, green, and snowflake earrings - I'm like a Christmas-gram! :)

Honorable Mention:
The "Boo Sammich" pic! :)

So yay for good pictures!  This Thursday, I shall shun the celebration of Halloween by putting up my Christmas tree and decorations early! lol  Get excited!!
