This week we got to hang out with some old friends from college. It is easy to forget how uncomplicated and simple it can be to hang out with good friends, friends who have seen you go through rough patches before, friends who know how to offer a distraction when you need one. I don't remember the last time I laughed this much. It was probably back in college, when I fist met Sam. Not everyone gets Sam but, I've always loved his sense of humor. The deployments, miscarriages and long hours of the last couple of years hasn't brought out the best in anyone's sense of humor. This last week hanging out with friends who have been there since the beginning of us, sharing the inside jokes you thought died long ago and making new memories revived something in me that everyday life sometimes hides, laughter.

Everyone last weekend!
It sounds like you had a much needed, relaxing getaway! I am glad you got the chance to laugh so much, and to enjoy your friends and family time.
