What a weekend!!

I am currently ticked at myself becasue i finally had my camera at the appropriate times this weekend, but seem to have left it at Whitney's or Jordan's house! So, pictures to come...I'm a work in progress.

To begin, Friday night was a blast, going out with a lot of the friends I made in the dorms freshman year! Chicago has officailly turned 21 and so like good college kids we celebrated in Old Town! I unfortunatly had to leave early b/c Cabana Day Spa (my place of employment) was calling my name at 8:30 am. :( Someone's got to bring home the bacon, huh?

Like many of you know, I recently had my turn at 21 and for my birthday, Jody and Whitney bought me a ticket to go see Dierks Bently in Denver! The concert was on Sat. and Whitney, Jenny, Keelee and myself stayed st a hotel in Denver and had a GREAT TIME!! Whenever we wern't "boxing out" we were laughing hysterically! It was so generous of Whitney to take me with her and it was also GREAT to spend some more time with Keelee and Jenny! For more pictures and more detail (i did not get sick) , I will recommend checking out Keelee's Blog... http://www.keeleedipadova.blogspot.com/


After a long day of working on Saturday, followed by a long night of drinking and laughing and walking around Denver...the greatest recovery came when Jordan and I joined Jody and Whitney, and Jody's co-workers, Stephanie and Jeramiah for the 1st Annual Lighting of the Tree Dinner!!! MAN OH MAN! It is always a good time when hanging out with the in-laws (how lucky am I) , but it is even better when having meatloaf, creamed-corn (not cream corn), green-bean casserole, and King's Hawaiian Dinner Rolls ( a staple at the Jody Duvall household)! Golly, i really wish is had my camera right now, to show you how lovely everything was!! I got so excited when Whitney told me that next year Jordan and I get to host the 2nd Annual Lighting of the Tree Ceremony! What a HUGE blessing it is to not only have jordan and my immediate families living in Colorado (except Todd, he's doing great work in Boston, but i miss him being here) but to have such loving and generous, and fun old people living right here in Fort Collins... It's a great life were living!
