Weekend highlights!

Here are the highlights from my weekend!

1. Celebrating Carrie, Ashley, and Hope's birthdays! (No, they are not triplets. Although, as Jeff put it, they are 2/3 of a triplet).

2. Playing "Imagine If" with my friends from Cleveland...Hilarious!

3. The joke wars: We hit this point in the evening when everyone started telling jokes. Some went over better than others. The best was Allison and Mike's dueling gender jokes (How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb vs. How many women does it take to screw in a light bulb).

4. Hearing about Ashley's experience dislocating her jaw. While this is not a highlight in Ashley's life, it was amazing to hear about the whole ordeal. Ash, I hope the pain is getting better!

5. Abby's baby shower: One of my best friends (and college roommate) is having a baby in February and her shower was this weekend. She is really cute and pregnant. I can't wait for little Molly to arrive!!

I hope that you all had great weekends too!
