day 51: a banquet of beauties with no brotherhood. :)

Today was the day of the senior banquet for the high schoolers. Krisanna and I had the chance to help three of the high schoolers get ready all afternoon. :) It was just like dorm life all over again! We popped in a chick flick and ate chocolate as we got all dolled up! +

as far as the banquet is concerned? It was the best one i've ever been to... and i've seen my fair share of banquets over the years!!! it was at a caterer's house (who caters for NATO and is one of the top 50 chefs in the world), so the food was to DIE for! There were tables set up on the veranda covered in roses and handcrafted pewter plates and glasses graced with lemon wedges. The atmosphere was perfect and the weather was too. :) the family who owned the house let us pretty much have free reign. They told us that the bathrooms were upstairs, so as we headed up there, we were told by their son that each of the six bedrooms upstairs had a bathroom in it, so we wouldn't have to wait in any lines! The party-planning committee had done a great job. The teachers all picked a table on the end of the porch, and laughed the night away. I always thought that teachers at banquets just acted like they had fun to make the students feel awkward... but, no. we had more fun than the kids did, I think!!!!!

between the INCREDIBLE chocolate chocolate CHOCOLATE cake, the amazingly perfect strawberry punch, and the laughs of the teaching staff, tonight was the best banquet I had ever attended.

Maybe it just took a trip to Europe and having no date, but this is the best banquet yet. :) it was way fun to see all the highschoolers interact and be all funny. :) I almost miss those days... wait, just kidding! Great beginning for spring break!!!!!!!!!!!!!
