The Bee's Knees.

One of the hardest parts of graduating from school, as I'm finding out,
has been parting ways with my wonderful roommates. 
I miss coming home to their infectious personalities and sharing stories
of our days and laughing until our sides hurt. 

However, this past weekend, we were finally reunited for a few glorious hours!!

While going to school in Greeley, we all fell in love with a church called
Christ Community Church. 
It was an exceptionally welcoming place and spiritual and practically perfect.
(We especially loved attending the Saturday night worships, as they provided us 
with more opportunities to sing and praise) 

This past weekend, CCC put on their 3rd annual Sharefest.
Most simply put, Sharefest is an event for church members to go out into the Greeley community and do good deeds.

We were given the opportunity to help a man repaint his house.
Although I have no training, someone handed me a paintbrush and a bucket of
paint and let me at this man's house. 
No need to worry, I stopped after I painted the side window.....just jokes!
(turns out I'm really good with a paintbrush)
His house looked great once we were finished!

It was a perfect way to spend a Sunday. 
For starters, I was with some of my best friends. 
I was also given the opportunity to broaden my horizons and meet new people. 
AND, I was able to help out a complete stranger. 
I'm thankful I could take part in such a beautiful and fulfilling event.
It was a wonderful and very rewarding day!

Love this girl to death!

The rest of our weekend was a blur of Labor Day sales at Centerra, devouring ridiculous
amounts of sushi, cooking, and laughing uproariously together.
No matter the distance, whenever we come back together, it's like no time
or distance has come between us. 
I love these girls to the moon and back.

They're the bee's knees.
