Five Things That Made Me Smile

Instead of writing something super prophetic today, I decided to keep it simple and just share some fun and awesome things from my life recently. So here you have it, the things that made me smile this week!

1. I volunteered at my church's Vacation Bible School for the first time this year and I had an absolute blast hanging out with my group of five little girls all week. The week went by way too fast in my opinion! I can only console myself with the fact that in a week and a day I leave for Camp Otyokwah for a week to staff junior week!

All five of my little girls!
2. Tomorrow I get to coach some of my little soccer players in a 4v4 tournament. I won't get to coach most of my kids again this year as some of them made different teams and I will be coaching different age groups, so I'm super excited to see them tomorrow! I'm taking two teams, one group from my youngest team and one from the older group of little ones. Plus we ordered some super cool t-shirts, so we'll be styling!

All three of my teams from the fall
3. New manicures. There is just something I find so fun about painting my nails. I don't wear a lot of jewelry and the stuff I do wear is very simple. I dress and do my hair and makeup pretty simply too, so doing fun things to my nails is always a fun way for me to show some personality. This week I went with a pale purple with a little bit of glitter!

4. I got to see some of my extended church "family" way more this week because of VBS and it was wonderful! I miss getting to see the Lehman's all the time, and once a week is barely cutting it for me! I loved talking with Rachael every day and seeing my little Kasen punk every evening when VBS was done. Getting hugs and kisses from that little dude will never get old, and my favorite thing is when he yells "I LUB YOU TIFFY!"

5. Last night my roomie and I had a campfire and made s'mores! It was comical watching her and her friend trying to light the fire but then we got it going (once I stepped in and used my old Girl Scout skills haha) and had an awesome time sitting around eating s'mores and just spending some time with each other. Campfires are one of my favorite things about summertime!

I build a darn good fire
It's been a pretty good week here! I'll try to post some more next week and I'll hopefully have some pictures of my girls from tomorrow! Next Saturday I get to see one of my best friends get married and then I'm off to camp for a week, so I'm sure I'll have lots to share after all of that! Have an awesome first day of summer!
