summer time!

Summer time has finally arrived! And I have welcomed it with open arms.
Spending days just relaxing, sleeping in and doing nothing but catching up on my shows and bonding with my cat.

This past week started very hectic. Graduation and grad parties galore. Too many to even count. But they were all so much fun. They are such a great time to see all of your suppor and the people who love you and wish th best for you. It has also been weird though, just thinking about the fact that, it was me just one year ago. The exciting walk down the carpet in my white robe in the Tacoma Dome, the grad party and family coming in from everywhere... seems like it was just yesterday. But now we are welcoming a brand new class into our midst at college. A new freshman class and an entirely new set of people. It just crazy to think that although this year simply trudged by at times, this year has just flown past me. Such a whirlwind of events. Meeting new people and trying new things and going new places an having adventures. It's just crazy to believe that year number one is over and gone.

After the craziness of graduation settled down a bit, I got a break, although I got to take Claire the graduation present that I ordered for her to her house... which lead to an invitation to the cabin... which is always a fun time.

 

The last day of school for the district was on friday and so Maddy and Hannah and I had a little photoshoot at Sunnyside beach and at Chmbers Bay. They were both lots of fun and really gave us a good chance to hang out and just begin to feel like it was really summer time.

Kimberly came over friday night and got to spend the night... she got here pretty late friday night, but this morning, we went and got our nails and our toes done and the nail place down the street which I LOOOVE! We had such a great time, just a girls day and getting to see her again was so much fun and much needed :) I hope that we get to hang out again before school starts back up!

Now I am just really looking forward to the time that I get to spend in California soon! Although I will be pretty sad to be away from home already, but it will be nice to get some time in the sun and just playing with kids. Also, for the third week that I will be there, I am going to be in San Fransisco with my family and I am so excited! We will be in Danville and Monterey to see and spend time with my mom's cousin Cathy and her husband Garrett.

It's always an exciting time there... but for the rest of the summer, I will continue to have my mind on Guatemala. Just for al the things I am excited for and for all of the unknowns. And all of the clothes I got for the trip :) haha! But it should be a lot of fun and i just really miss my team a lot!

So full of joy and love right now. God is so great.

love love love always :)
