Another month has come and gone- so it's time for Ten Things to Smile About. This meme is usually the last Tuesday of the month- but with the Review Extravaganza and the holidays I put it off until today, so I hope you take the time to link up still- the linky will be open for almost a week.

1. Christmas of course
2. Having my mom here in December so we could craft and paint together
