My case of happy dancing feet, wave riding, music romance, roaming the globe & searching the soul, getting lost in a sea of blankets, aesthetics of fashion/art, working magic in the kitchen, breaks for Pinkberry, lunges & 80's sweat bands, photobooth memories, stars that kiss the sky, kettle korn & movie spooning, livingroom picnics & dance party car rides, BEAR HUGS that linger, conversations till sunrise & kisses till sunset, banana pancake Sundays, LIVING FOR PEACE, DREAMING BIG, LOVE that spans to the moon & back... The simple things make me happy...
The best part of me & the best part of you....
