I am finally done with exams! I am so happy! I celebrated by making my (first) chocolate pie...it turned out okay...I was slightly mad at myself when I saw this recipe for a Mocha Silk Pie over at Pioneer Woman's blog...it looks a lot easier and yummier than the one I made! ;) I think I'm going to try it next time.

So now that exams are over I should have a little more time for blogging...

But for now I'll leave you with the unedited gorgeousness (is that a word?) of the night sky.

I'm going to start doing a "Happiness Is..." post once a week...I'm going to post two things that make me happy.

Happiness is...

...these sweet girls. Check out how MeMe dressed Lilly today...MeMe was the mom and Lilly was her baby named Elizabeth.

...truffles and chocolate covered espresso beans (if you look on the bottom left you can see the boxes of said espresso beans). I think I could eat both all day long. They have been my constant companions studying for exams. :)

What are two things that make YOU happy this week?

Feel free to write a post of your own for "Happiness Is..."!

This is what our bathroom looks like right now...I didn't realize how much I depended on it before! I'll admit that I've walked in there (many times) to look in the mirror/wash my hands...I don't think this mess would do the job!

Oh, I read yesterday in this month's issue of House Beautiful that they're predicting that grey will be one of the new 'it' colors in home decorating...especially grey pared with white (click here to read our plans (it's in the second half of the post) for our bathroom)...we will have one trendy bathroom!

There will be one happy girl in this house when the bathroom is finished, that's for sure! :)
