happy birthday to me.

Sunday was my birthday, I turned 26 years old that day.
Here are a few things I would like to tell my younger self...

1. You should have forced Kenny to marry you when you were 21. Marriage is cool.

2. You need to workout more, and eat less candy. (wait, I need to tell my 26 year old self that too)

3. Buying a ticket to Europe 2 weeks in advance was the greatest thing you have ever done. You should stop buying jeans and do that more than once.

4. You need to stop saying bad words. (just kidding)

5. Your sister will become your best friend, then she will have kids and ruin everything! (just kidding, again) 

6. When you scooter, use both legs, your right calf will end up bigger.

7. Don't let your sister talk you into a walmart haircut. You will look like a shaggy dog.

Things 5 year olds say.

It's Monday, and Mondays are tough. So to brighten my Monday, and yours, I wrote a few silly things my kindergarteners said today. 

While teaching on the carpet I hear running outside my classroom than one of my little boys walks in the door.

Me: Hunter, were you running?

Hunter: Uhhhhh no, but two black boys were. 

While recently testing one of my little boys I asked him what rhymed with "pin".
His response: "pinis!" 


Aren't they silly? 

the ceremony.

We got married on a lake in the middle of the woods. It was magical. Since the scenery was so beautiful I didn't need many decorations. I lined the aisle with mason jars and white candles. Then made two simple banners to hang. It was a little windy outside and wasn't expecting that, my banners went a little wild. If that was the worst thing to happen all day, I was ok with it. Oh wait, we forgot all the beer at home and realized it 10 minutes before go time. Thank goodness for good friends!
