Is it just me or have you been noticing a trend toward HAPPINESS lately?  The brighter days this past week have certainly helped, but it's more than the sunshine. People are making an effort to see the wonder in small moments.  It seems to me there's been a renewed commitment to being happy, and well, I couldn't be happier about it :)

This week's new content will give you plenty of reasons to feel happy:
  • Three services at Grand Ridge Plaza (plus plenty of shopping and restaurant options) that are sure to make you happy!
  • Your gently used children's clothes, toys, and gear could make someone else very happy plus put some cash in your pocket; now is the time to consign with the Just Between Friends Spring Sale.
  • "If mama ain't happy, nobody's happy," and we suggest giving her a night off from cooking dinner.  Our list of local restaurants where Kids Eat FREE {or Cheap} Locally will make that happen!
