Today is a good day.

*My Dad says that (today is a good day) all the time, BTW.

Today 4 amazing things happened.

1. We found my tape measurers!! I was so lost without them. It was like walking around without my cell phone. Possibly almost as bad as walking around with out my contacts. I was getting very desperate and quite honestly depressed. I was carrying around 8.5x11 pieces of paper and using them to judge the size of all the things I needed to measure. It was a sad couple weeks. Which makes today and extra special good day.

2. Today I, Brittany Bowen, ordered my very first, ever in the history of my life, completely authentic Pottery Barn item. Purchased on the ACTUAL Pottery Barn website. Shipped directly from Pottery Barn itself, to my very own home. It's not here yet - naturally. But it will be. giddy.

3. In our lost cause search for my "misplaced" wii fit game we may have, inadvertently, torn apart our entire "media" cabinet. So, guess what I found? A stack of old SD cards (we are talking old like very first SD cards ever made) And, when I was checking them for long lost pictures I actually found some.

WOW.
That happens to be the best ever.

It's like finding long forgotten money in pants pockets (that happened to us once with wedding money. Didn't find it for 2 years. unfortunately it was checks... they wouldn't exactly cash anymore. lame. And yes, they were "lost" in my pants pockets. lame-R. Just one time I want to not be the one who loses things)
ANYway. Want to see what I found? Here goes

It's my baby girl! She is probably just barely over one, seeing that she got those scrubs from her Auntie Alyssa for her first birthday. Look how dark (and bald) she is!

Here is one of her with her daddy (who looks to be about 17 when this picture was taken. What can I say, I was a cougar.)

Now, the camera must have been discovered later in life, because on the same sd card I have these of Cooper (who is probably about 15 months)

and another Kami (at what looks to be 3)

4. Now, if this day couldn't get better... it just did. Also in that stack of SD cards I found a micro sd converter card. What?! Imagine my luck. So, not only did I inherit brand new long lost photos, but I also finally got to download my cell phone pics (which happen to be some of my very fondest photos) I'm not a big cell phone pic taking person (probably because I usually forget my phone takes pictures) but I never knew how to take them off my cell phone. I'm sure there are other ways then moving all my pics to Brandon's micro SD card and then using the converter to move them onto my computer, but hey, this way works for me.
I'm going to include those pics in their own seperate post for 2 reasons: 1 - this post is long already. 2 - I messed up the order in which I did things and blogger doesn't make it easy to "rearrange" pictures and text in a post.

Oh... I just thought of more reasons today is a good day:
-we moved our bunk beds, much better
-my amazing cousin took stunning pictures of my kids and I ordered the prints today.
