Oh, What A Weekend

This past weekend was jam packed full of fun. 
I am still recovering from it. So tired. But, so much fun. 
The last day of school was Thursday, so the celebrations started on Thursday night.
We biked to one of our favorite Mexican restraunts for dinner & margaritas.
 
Yum.
Friday was Teacher Work Day.
Every year, my school has a breakfast that Friday at someone's house. 
This year, the breakfast was at my house. 
It sure was a crazy way to start my weekend...hosting over 65 teachers for breakfast. 
After the breakfast, I headed back to school to finish up my grades & cleaning up my classroom. 
Then, it was off to Napa for the Rehearsal & Rehearsal Dinner for the wedding of Brittany, who was one of my youth group girls 10 years ago.
 
 I LOVE Napa. Love, love, love,
 
 So much fun at the Dinner & such a beautiful night.

 The next evening was the wedding. This is the wedding that I needed a long fancy dress for, since it was a black tie wedding.
THIS is the dress I ended up getting for the wedding. I LOVED it. So comfortable.
Classic. And, long enough for me! #tallgirlproblems
I said my verse & a few words at the ceremony & totally got teary. I'm so emo.
The wedding was absolutely GORGEOUS!

 


 The wedding was at Domaine Chandon (champange!) So, they sawed off the top of a bottle of champange with a sword!
 So cool!
 It was such an elegant wedding.
 Most delicious wedding cake I have EVER had.
 The gorgeous bride & I

 Gotta love the photo booth:
We shut down the wedding at midnight & guess what was waiting for everyone in the parking lot?
 A FREAKING ICE CREAM TRUCK!!
 So excited. I love ice cream.
 Oh, and that cookbook I am holding? That was our wedding favor. I KNOW. Crazy.
 The bride & groom:
 This was our first night away from all 3 kids. My first time leaving Luke overnight! 
The bed & breakfast we stayed in had the most comfortable sheets EVER.  Kevin spotted this sign as we were about to check out.
 
 We could order sheets!!!! And, I totally did. They arrived today. You have no idea how happy I am.
 We headed back to our house Sunday afternoon....So long, Napa.
We were hosting my family for Father's Day!
Didn't have time to make a cake, good thing Costco had this 7 layer chocolate cake.
 Three amazing Father's:

 It was a weekend to remember.
Thankful we have no plans this weekend....I am still recovering!
So tiring, but worth it. So much fun!

  17. I love the wedding photographs! And the location of the event is great. I'm planning a wedding myself, so now I'll consider a wedding like that as well. I still can't believe that I'm getting married in a few months to a person that I've found on this source because I wasn't expecting it to be that serious at all. But to be honest, I can't imagine a different person next to me.
