Life Lately Vol. 1

Hey, y'all! I'm so excited to be starting a new Friday series instead of my usual Friday Picks! Basically, every other week, I will be sharing a little update about what has been going on in my life recently. On the other weeks, I will share links I've been loving. I've wanted to start this new series for a while now so y'all can get to know me better. I feel like there are so many aspects of my life that I don't share with y'all, and I really want that to change!

Hand Lettering // I've mentioned this before in my Liebster Award post LINK, but recently I've been teaching myself how to hand letter. I'm not a pro or anything yet, and I still have a long way to go, but I'm really looking forward to improving on this even more and just wanted to show y'all my progress. Stay tuned for a post on some hand lettering tips and tricks in May or June!

Cocoa // This was also mentioned in my Liebster Award post, but in case you haven't heard... I got a bunny! My sisters and I received this little ball of fluff for Easter, and she is the cutest thing ever! She looks like a little stuffed animal, but I promise she's real. I've been wanting to share pictures of her ever since I got her, but she's so fast and I've had the hardest time getting her to stay still. (P.S. add me on Snapchat at livethepreplife to see a few videos of her every now and then!)

Soccer // My school's soccer practices started this week and it has been a blast! Although it means staying after school every day and being extremely sore sometimes, I've really enjoyed being on the team! Our first game is next week and I can't wait! It's also really fun because some of my best friends are on the team with me, including Sarah (her cleat is the one on the left in the above picture, and you can find her at @color.me.preppy on Instagram or you can click the link to her blog here.)

Also - a new blog theme is coming really soon, I promise! I really want to get it up this weekend, but we'll see...

How was your week?
