I'm so lucky

To have a friend like her.

I'm going to miss her while she's out changing the world. But I can't really complain when she's out....changing the world... :) I guess I'm just blessed to have her in my life at all.

I want to run away:

Recently someone asked me what my biggest dream was. I wasn't sure what it was but now I know. My biggest dream in life is to travel. Every time I see a picture of somewhere far away I just want to be there that very moment. So these are just a few places I WILL go someday.

EGYPT :)

Paris :)

Tokyo :)

NEW YORK :)

London :)

England :)

Ireland :)

Athens :)

And there are so many more. But just putting these here make this dream a lot more official. Someday I'll make it to all of these places...someday my dream will come true. And that just makes me happy :)

Dance:

Dance in the rain.

Because life is to short to stay inside and watch it through your window.

Even when you're afraid you'll slip and get hurt, Take that chance. Because it could become the best decision you ever made.

And if you do slip and you feel like you can't get back up, It will make you that much stronger when you do.

So take chances. Dance in the rain. Get hurt. Stand up. And believe in yourself.

Listen to :)

Today everything makes me happy. I'm happy for my friends who make me smile everyday, even if they have a sunburn so bad they're purple :) I'm happy for summer. Going barefoot and running through sprinklers. I'm happy for hard things that make me stronger and beautiful little sisters. For music that feels my head with memories and rain that makes me remember the things I don't want to forget. But most of all my big sister, erin, makes me happy. She is my biggest example of love, understanding, endurance, joy, and patience. I know she will always be there for me because she always has. She never lets me forget I'm important even if I don't feel that way. I love my big sister :) And thats what makes me happy today :)

Today has just been the best :)

My family came to visit from Tennessee and this is my handsome little cousin that I just adore :)

Dispite my sisters broken back she still makes me cookies that taste like heaven :)

The sunset was the perfect ending to the perfect day. It's crazy how the sunsets always amaze me here. They make you remember how lucky you really are :)

My name is Madi. And just like everyone else, sometimes i forget to look at the happy things in life. The little things that just make you smile and make life worth living. So this blog is dedicated to the things that make me happy and hopefully along the way it will make you happy too :)
