best face forward

When you're open to seeing the good, it will reveal itself.

What a delight to look up from putting away pots and pans in the bottom cupboard, to find this smiling face looking at me.

I enourage you today to put a smile on. You never know who or what might smile back. Of course, we'd love to see anything you'd like to share that gives you a grin.

Very cute! I love finding these sneaky creatures in unexpected places. I found this guy sitting atop the tractor at a hayride last October.

And then I found this little bird while making breakfast...

love this post! here's an unexpected smile i didn't expect to get. I was shooting grass for picture spring, laying flat out and low to the ground. the next thing I knew, my dog Major was about to run me over! This is what happened instead:

I have only some wipeout photos today that I posted on your site yesterday. It makes me both smile and cringe at the same time.

This definitely made me smile. I love uncanny moments in life like this where you can't help but forget about the crap that makes your forehead furrow because something so silly makes you crack a smile.

Just like I love seeing my husband in a cat costume. Who doesn't?

What an awesome picture. I love it when things smile at me.

I'm going to be extra aware and see what I can stumble across.

Smiles to all of you lovely ladies!

These jerseys which are interestingly termed retro basketball jerseys are old school. Here is an example, men football jerseys, Kobe’s jersey at the present time, but the Lakers look 20 years ago. That would be an example of the throwback kind. Sports stars put them on now and again during games also.site:http://www.nfljerseyonline.com

Most of these jerseys state they’re replicas,sports jerseys store, yet in fact aren’t. They are the cheapest ones out there. They’ve screen imprinted lettering, additionally are made of the least expensive fabrics availableNike.
