As a kid, I dreaded slumber parties. In fact, I think after maybe one or two I pretty much steered clear of them. The staying up late, the bad pizza, the movies I'd never heard of, terrifying torture devices under the guise of "games." I actually thought of never leaving the house again after I heard of spin the bottle. I guess I've always been a little bit of an old woman.

But now that my friends are all old too, it's a different story. We got WILD this weekend. We went out to Thai food and spent a whopping $10 each. We put on makeup (thanks, Jessica). We made brownies (thanks Amanda). AND, get this, we slept in until 8am! We did BRING some wine (Molly's contribution, of course) but nary a bottle got opened.






So for those of you who don't know...I call these "my friends from high school" but actually, we all go back pretty much to Kindergarten or a few years later. All except for Tuxedo, that is. He's new to the group, but he fit right in, especially when he snuggled down to sleep under the covers between Janina and Amanda.






Thanks Amanda and Rico for letting us take over your new house! And thanks for a fun weekend everyone!
