Too Much Time on My Hands?... Perhaps

Now, This is the story all about how
My frown got flipped turned upside down
I'd liked to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I changed my frown to a smile so fair.


In Vancouver, WA born and raised
Hudson's Bay was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And shootin some b-ball outside after school
When a couple of guys
They were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and chanced to meet frown
Said I gotta move up to Prairie, a bit happier part of town

I whistled for a cab and when it drew near
The license plate said "SMILE" and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought hmm...'Naw forget it' - 'Yo homes to Brush Pr-air'

I pulled up to the school about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smile later'
I looked at my Smile
It was finally there
Restin upon on my face as the smile so fair.

-Keep on Smilin'- Peace out Yo!

It's Better to Smile, Than it is to Croak!

This happy little frog is HAPPY. When I saw this it made me feel happy all over. 1st off I love Tree Frogs... When I was young I used to catch them all the time. And I had an eye for them too. They are usually green or brown, so they blend in really well with their surroundings, but for some reason I could pick them up on radar like a hawk (Except I didn't swoop in and try to kill them with my Large Tallons).

I also love the arcade game frogger, don't know why that's relevant, but none the less, now you know one more useless fact about me.

So for all the *hoppy* little frogs out there (Sorry, I couldn't resist) may you never be spotted by a hawk, and may you always keep on smiling!


To the rest of you...

-Keep on Smiling- (too :)

Smilin is for the Birds...

All I can say is Wow, whoever caught this shot was one lucky duck. Even mother nature can smile upon us at times. So as you are out and about in your day, remember to look for the moments that emulate the happiness in everyday life.

This one's for Owen

If you don't know what I'm talking about click on Esther & Jeremy's blog to the right of this post.

I am so proud of Owen who will NEVER have teeth like this. My little buddy Owen knows what happens in our mouths at night... They get dirty!!! And if we don't clean our smiles this is what will happen.

So if any of you have kids that wont brush their teeth, just have them take a look at these two and I think they'll start.

The one on the right is my older brother Bart, and I'm the little whipper snapper to the left.

So remember kids... Brush and floss and take good care, cause if you don't your teeth grow hair!

-Keep on Smiling- (Unless you don't know what a toothbrush is, then please spare us:)

Smiling Bob - Dedicated to B.I.B.

Well... You knew that this picture had to *pop up* soon enough. For some crazy reason this picture makes us all smile just a bit more. Kinda silly, but there is just something about that smile that makes us all blush a bit and chuckle inside.

In honor of earth day here's to a smile that just may help you reduce your carbon footprint. I don't know how...but it just may.

Gym Class

I had a kid in my gym class that looked just like this, but I think the guy in my class could bench more than the gorilla.

But don't feel too bad for the gorilla, I think he has a better smile :)

Its amazing to me how truly connected animals are with Human emotion. They really do feel Happiness over things. I have a Boxer and everyday when I come home her little tail gets going about 1,000 miles per hour. It leaves ya feeling awesome! So, my dog smiles with her tail.

Smiles are a wonderful gift, they come with an almost 100% guarantee to make both the giver and the receiver feel good, and best of all... They are Free!

So later on as you go out and see someone who is not smiling, cast a smile in there direction, you'll be amazed when you realize the power that those little muscles in your face really posses.

I'd like to welcome all the J. Hilburn partners who were introduced to my blog today (Thanks Sally :) and hope that you will visit often.

Great things are happening in the world today and if your associated with J. Hilburn you are part of one of the GREATEST happenings out there!

-Keep on Smiling-
