Kim shares summer happenings [week 1] (=

I hope I'm doing this right (haha!) but for only having a week of summer I think it's started off to be pretty fantastic.

Volunteer for a day (week? :D )
Last week, from Monday through Friday, I volunteered at my church with something a lot of churches have called "Vacation Bible School." It was only from 8:30-11:30 every day, but I grew so attached to some of these kids and a few of them were pretty attached to me! (Literally)

Have a party

Actually I just remembered the Saturday before this week we had a pretty awesome party at my house. Since my Dad's birthday was Tues. June 11 and my boyfriend's was Thurs. June 13 and my brother's girlfriend's was Wednesday June 5, we had a combined thing as a luau! It was a lot of fun! My boyfriend's younger twin brothers and their friends at some point we're saying back and forth, "If you shoot the ball into the hoop from there, she's all yours!" Referring to the pool-basketball set we had. It was hilarious. We also had a roasted pig--which I know is not for everyone, including me (vegeterian..hehe!) but the party crowd was really excited. We had a pumpin' DJ and a lot of friends and just an awesome time.

Cook/Bake Something

The day after my dad's birthday and the day before my boyfriend's (Kyle) birthday, I spent a lot of time preparing a surprise for him. I baked a cake and blew up about 30 balloons (it was supposed to be 100+... oops!) and my dad set it up in his room while Kyle and I did our VBS church thing (at the top). The cake was actually supposed to be an ombre cake, but I only had 1 box of cake mix so I decided a 2-layer 2-color cake would be fine, but I did NOT put enough food coloring! I wanted blue and green. For some reason, after adding 3 drops of blue I thought, "Hmm. Maybe adding a drop of red will make it a darker blue--even dark purplish!" It did not. I had a grey layer and a light green layer. BUT CAKE IS CAKE AND IT WAS DELICIOUS. And if anyone has seen Patch Adams, that was the effect I was going for in his room, which also didn't live up to expectations, but Kyle was still very happy and surprised. (10 pts to me? ;D )

Go to a Concert

That night, and some of you will probably cringe when you hear this, I went to a One Direction concert with my nieces. It was actually a lot of fun! I got a few of their songs..hehe. It was just a really entertaining concert and they are great live performers. There were so many girls there and they were going crazyyy! I vined quite a few moments of the concert if anyone has vine!

I don't know how that spacing worked out.. but it is what it is! Anyways, I had a pretty awesome first week of summer. Looking forward to sharing more with you guys! But I'll try not to cram it in one post!
