Casual Friday + Moments of the Week

I recently had someone leave a comment asking why I always smile 

in my photos because I look "ridiculous."

So here is a photo of me trying not to smile.

I think I look hungry.  Or judgemental.

 So here is me smiling!  Because I like to smile.  

And my yellow H&M bag demands a sunny disposition gosh darn it!

I'll take it a step further and post this super non-serious photo. 

I can't help it...I love how I feel in my new white Paige skinnies!

I'll end with a quote from Buddy the Elf,

"I just like to smile!  Smiling's my favorite."

Moments of the Week:

The Moment Where I Kinda Love My Dogs:

I had a pinched nerve in my neck this week.  Super painful.  So I would lay down on our hardwood floor to try to get some relief.  And this is what happens...  

Puppy kisses take away all the pain. :)

The Moment Where I Kinda Dislike My Dogs:

Long day at work...

Some kid dropped his sloppy joe on my new light pink suede heels.  

A teacher guessed my age to be seven years more than I am.  

And I packed a poopy lunch (my own fault...but I can still feel sorry for myself).

 Looking forward to coming home, I open my door to this lovely sight:

And yes...it almost looks as though they are congratulating 

each other on a job well done.  Jerks.

Thanks so much for stopping by and being a part of my "ridiculous smiling blog" :)  I love hearing from you, whether it be in the comments, on twitter or via email.  You quite simply...make me smile!
