Fun Friday!

Well lets just say that today was a BUSY Friday to say the least! We started off our day in Kindergarten today with our African marketplace. Our kids have been studying Africa for the past two weeks and they made goods to be sold in the market today. They got to come in and barter with us to buy some things for themselves! It is always one of my favorite things that we do each year and this year was no exception...the word "Jambo" means hello is Swahili which I why I chose the song for this post just in case you were wondering! Anyways here are a few pictures from the market!



After school we had a baby shower for one of our first grade teachers, Andrea, who is going to have a little boy in just a few weeks! We got to see some 4-D ultrasounds of him and they were really quite amazing!

After the shower we went back to Melissa's room and I got to cut James's hair! Our neighbor usually does both of our hair but she had surgery a few weeks ago and is unable to cut hair yet so James was stuck with me doing it instead! I was a little nervous at first (and I think he was too) but it turned out pretty good if you ask me!

Here we go!

The "before" shot...doesn't he look happy?

Well Melissa and I are off now to go see The Wizard of Oz which is being put on near us and it includes a lot of students from our school as munchkins so it should be fun! Never a dull moment around here...hopefully we will get some rest and relaxation in at some point this weekend though!
