OH What a HAPPY Day Link Party!


Welcome to the Oh What a HAPPY Day Link Party!

Time to celebrate what is giving us JOY and making us HAPPY this week.  It is so easy to get bogged down and lost in the negative.  Let's take a moment and celebrate the positive.

In thinking about the events in Boston this week, I debated how I should mention my thoughts; and if a HAPPY day party was even the right thing.  Again and again I returned to Mr. Rogers' quote.  Yes there is ugliness in this world, but the whole point of this party is also remember the beauty that we are capable of as well.

So this week I am happy for the helpers.  For the people who ran towards the scene to help.  For the neighbors who opened their home to strangers who needed shelter.  For the hospital staff still working to save lives... and specially for all those not there and not personally involved around the world who are praying for those who were.




I'd also like to thank all the lovely bloggers who joined up with us here for Oh HAPPY Day last week.  We had 52 in total Congrats go out to Krista @ Far From Normal for having the most views last week.


Now onto the Party


chicken nuggets and cookie buttsThis week's awesome co-host is Andrea @ Chicken Nuggets and Cookie Butts.   Isn't that just the best blog name and button?  Andrea's is a hard working mom, who is open and honest in her writings.    After you link up, hop over and share the joy.  You cannot miss the adorable pictures of her Chicken Nugget!
 

The rules are pretty simple: 

Have fun, say HI to our lovely co-host, and HI to as many other party goers as possible.  =) 

If you would like to spread the word, please grab a button and put it on your blog.  If you are interested in being a co-host, then just let me know!

  6. Hi, I saw your hop on google+ Newbie bloggers. I'm not sure if my post fits the hop, but the message is positive. I've had those words from Mr. Rogers front and center in my mind this week!
