CAKE

this time next week i will be on my way to europe!!! i am SO excited!!! we are going to ireland, england, spain, italy and france. i am going with Ale, Kim, and Erin. ale put our first initials together and found that our initials spells CAKE. so we are going to have a blog while we are there to keep family and friends up to date on our travels: http://cakeineurope.blogspot.com/

so excited to see this

anyway, this is my first time leaving the country and am semi-freaking out that i'm going to forget a billion things and be totally unprepared, but regardless i know i'm going to have a blast and its going to be an adventure. there are just so many amazing places in the world i feel very very grateful to go see some of them. i can't wait to meet new people, try new food, and just be amazed by everything around me.

here's some pics of the girls of CAKE at various get togethers.

we love america!

so patriotic and random. don't look too closely at my nails--i was in a hurry and am in general never that great at painting my own nails.

getting ready for the color run. erin wanted shorts so kim cut her some! teamwork.
