Happy birthday!

This last week has been too much fun! It all started with a crazy nerve wracking solo for a trek fireside. The song I performed was written by the 2nd counselor in the bishopric, Brother Reynolds. It was an absolutely gorgeous arrangement, and I was thrilled to sing it. The only downside was the huge spot on my dress from last Sunday's Top Ramen (second picture below). It doesn't look huge, but oh believe me, it was!! Watch out for that Ramen...it can do some pretty low things if you catch my drift. We also held a surprise party for my friend, Amber, and Jeanette baked a cake for the occasion. Celestial bliss is hardly a good enough description for that cake. It was divine (third picture below). Last but not least, we celebrated the Fourth of July this week. The day was filled with parades and some amazing fireworks. However, I was lame and forgot to take pictures of any of it. Therefore, the selfie Ryan and I took in the car will have to suffice (first picture below). I'm beyond grateful to live in such a great nation, and beyond that, such a great community.  I live among some unbelievably talented people who I am so blessed to call my friends and family. Looking forward to finding out how the rest of this summer adventure will unfold!:)

All my love,

Kim
