a stellar weekend

So seriously, after such a couple of stressful weeks, of which I shall spare you the details, we had such an amazing weekend of fun and frivolity. Our college boy came home with his friends, and together our two families shot up the coast to Santa Barbara to see Jerry Seinfeld, live and in person, one night only, sold out, and it was hands down one of the greatest evenings ever! SO. FUNNY. I am not a big comedian fan on average, but come on - this is Jerry! JERRY! Our friends Lisa & Dave had seen him before and loved him, so when they heard about Santa Barbara we bought tickets well before the holidays last year and the countdown to "Jerry" began. Well let me just say, our entire family enjoyed every minute of his performance. I laughed so hard my stomach muscles (rarely used) still hurt, I've never seen my eighteen-year-old smile so much at one time (he admitted his cheeks were sore), and even the Mouse laughed through the entire performance. So enough said - if you ever get the chance, GO.

Ah, here is my favorite thing in all the world, my three boys all under the same roof. And doing something fun together, like watching a movie. When they're laughing, and enjoying each other's company, and having a good time without hurting each other. Or without breaking something. 
And what weekend would be complete without me Nairing Daniel's hairy arms? That's right. I promised him that if he showed me how to use Photoshop to put a watermark on my photos then I would Nair his hairy arms. I think that's a pretty fair trade-off. And he totally came through on his end of the deal so of course I came through on mine. Besides, he helped me with all the groceries too. He's so helpful that way. And it's not his fault that he's the Missing Link. The poor guy is so hairy I have to shake his sheets outside before I can even wash them. Poor guy. It drives him crazy. So the least I could do is Nair his arms. Oh I love that boy :)

What a terrific weekend - I hope you had a great weekend as well.
