it's the little things:: text messages & an extra egg

It's been one of those weeks that this series was created for. It's been a rough week, guys. The little things this week have meant more than ever.

... a really awesome neighbor who has quickly become a friend. And thankfully, she was there for me the other night when I was attempting eggs benedict, had the hollandaise all ready and then got ready to make the eggs and... didn't realize that Chris had hard-boiled the rest of the eggs the night before. My sweet neighbor, Nicole sent over some eggs and even included an extra "just in case".

 ... texting with my Dad. I haven't talked about my dad much on here, partly because it's so hard to put into words what this man means to him. It's safe to say he is one of my very favorite people on earth. Can't wait to hug him SOON!

... my new camera bag! Weird how something so "big" turns into a little thing during a week like this. But it definitely was something to make me smile! I love my Kelly Moore bag and can't wait to use it in Maryland! 

(If you're confused because you thought I bought an Epiphanie bag, you are correct. I sadly am returning that bag. More on all that in another post!)

Bonus little things::

... eating cupcakes with cream cheese frosting with my friend, Krynn and talking about life. 

... lots of wonderful tweets and cyber--hugs from sweet friends. 

... Chris surprised me with a trip to get Froyo last night! :) 

... homemade iced coffee with whipped cream and cinnamon.

Can't wait to see your posts this week! If you are new to Aisle to Aloha and linking up for the first time (or hey, even if it's your fifth!), make sure you say hello! I'd love to meet you! :) 

I'm taking a bloggy break the next two weeks, so the next linkup will be on November 18th!

party rules.

1. Only link to your specific blog post, not to your blog's main page. See here for more explanation. 

2. Grab a button and/or include a link back to this post so your readers can come see what the fun is all about! You can find the code for the button on the sidebar or on the "little things" page.

3. Make sure you visit (and comment) on other posts linked up-- what fun is a party if no one talks to each other? Make some new friends! 

4. I reserve the right to kick you out of the party if you aren't playing nice-- so make sure your post is relevant to this party and is actually a "little things" post (ie. no giveaways, random posts from last month, etc.).
