Recent Decisions...

So much has happened in the last month. I know it has been more than a month since I have written last. Things have been crazy with school and wedding planning. I am sure this blog is starting out identically to my last entry...

I know you don't want to hear all the boring wedding details...so other than the wedding...I have really been enjoying teaching 5th grade. My students have come a long way from the first day of school. I have been immersing them in language development, sight word recognition and spelling. They love chanting their words on the word wall. This week, we are going to a VOA function. VOA is Volunteers of America, a company we are an affiliate of. They hold a fundraiser every year at the Metropolitan. Our class has been chosen to sing at the function, which is on Wednesday. We get on a bus at 7:50, go to the Metropolitan, sing, eat breakfast and go back to school. It should be a fun time. And then, on Friday, we are walking to the Children's Theater to see Madeline and the Gypsies. What a fun-filled week!!

I have been going through pictures to scan for a slideshow for the wedding reception. It has been really fun seeing pictures of Chad and I when we were young. I had seen all my pics but I was seeing Chad's for the first time. I am keeping the slideshow secret from Chad. He knows I am making it but I am not going to let him see it until our reception. I am SOOO excited for this surprise. I can never keep a surprise long enough, so I really hope I can keep this a surprise.
