Bethany's 20th Birthday

Friday afternoon, Bethany drove Damarise, Janessa and me down to Chattanooga to celebrate her 20th birthday. We went to Cece's (an amazing frozen yogurt shop) and wandered around the art district of Chattanooga.

We found cute doors.

Mimicked statues.

And had a great time being together.

I am so thankful for Bethany and her friendship. She is an encouragement to everyone she meets. She has a smile on her face always. Her love for the Lord is evident in her life and she shares that with everyone. She's a huge blessing to me and I love having her on my hall, having her in my education classes, and getting to have her as a friend!

Happy 20th Birthday, Bethany!

Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day to everyone! :) Not that I am Canadian, but it is fun to celebrate :) What fun things have you done to celebrate?

Last night Damarise made and iced a cookie cake for youth group. She, of course, decorated it with the Canadian flag :)

It looked slightly pink, so we put on some fiery red sprinkles.

For breakfast, I made cinnamon rolls with maple icing :) Oh, and it was red :) 

I painted my finger (and toe) nails with the Canadian flag... although my maple leaf looks nothing like a maple leaf! haha.

:) And dressed up for the day! Red and white anyone? How about a red and white necklace.. or earrings.. bracelet... ribbons.. socks?!

And Andrew helped bring on the spirit of Canada too, with Dad's Canadian hat :) Thanks Andrew! :)

I hope you all have a wonderful Canada day... even if you don't celebrate it :)
