things that have made me happy this week

I saw a post like this on Cider with Rosie the other day, and I though it was such a great, positive way to take a look back at the week! So, I thought I would give it a shot ;)

1 // Our little weekend trip to Burlington, VT. Aaron was working there this past week/weekend, so we thought it would be fun if I flew up on Friday morning to meet him, and we would spend some time exploring. I have never been to Vermont, and he just loves it every time he works there, so it was fun visiting together! I will do a whole post on the trip, but you can get a sneak peek via my Instagram (@emiliestorey)

2 // A break from school. We just wrapped up the end of the spring semester, and got almost 2 weeks off before summer semester started. That means I was able to get to the gym every day after work and spend every evening at home, instead of sitting in class! But we are back at it this Wednesday...but only for 12 more weeks - then I am done forever!

3 // Re-discovering Nashville. Do any of you watch this show? I'm not even a country music fan, but I really like this show. I watched the first season last year, and have just recently gotten back into watching it again on Hulu - almost made it to the end of season 2.

4 // Finally getting some sun after a couple of dreary weeks.

5 // Aubrey's dress for the wedding arriving in the mail - and it's absolutely gorgeous! She loves it, and it fits perfectly. 

6 // My dad getting a new job after learning on Monday that he was getting laid off after nearly 20 years with a company. He is laid off as of Friday and will start his new job the following Monday - what a blessing!! 

7 // TV in the evenings with each of my pups snuggled up - one on either side of me <3  

8 // Watermelons are back in the grocery store!  

9 // Watching so many Car Karaoke videos (side note - I <3 James Corden)

10 // Finding the perfect dress for our engagement photos this weekend -- now just need to pull one more outfit together in like 3 days! xx
