Just in case you were wondering...Yes, I'm now enjoying my new job with all my kiddos but I can't tell a lie there were quite a few days when my whole room was crying and all I wanted to do was sit down and cry with them. I've heard my fair share of "MAMA" wails over the past 4 weeks. Friday we made chocolate covered bananas and that was probably a very big turning point with our class. All the kids were on their best behavior and had so much fun doing it together. My co-teacher and I were also able to share some pretty good laughs as we cleaned every surface and face that was covered in chocolate.
The banana pop event was the start to a very good weekend. We made a quick trip (besides the hours of Chicago traffic) home for our friends Amy and Matt to celebrate the start of their forever. The wedding was beautiful in the Kasson Catholic Church and the reception that followed was a blast in the Mayowood Stone Barn. Of course I took way too many pictures and whittled it down to 89 good ones and 1 sweet video (Yes Amy, I'm going to make sure you get them all!) So now, without further ado, I give you Amy and Matt Badzinski. (And a few cute ones of us ;)
