$80 Mashed Potatoes

This past weekend was Dylan's 10 year high school reunion. Since a 5 hour party with his classmates wasn't enough for Dylan and his friends, they turned it into a whole weekend extravaganza. There was the pre-party the night before, the pre-party the night of, the official reunion, the post-reunion sleepover (yes, sleepover), and the minigolf tournament.

Here are some of my impressions:
Highlights
Emma playing with her friend Macy at the pre-pre-party
Meeting Jeff's girlfriend
Matt Warner putting product in Dylan's hair
Reading the comments in Dylan's old yearbooks- "I will never, never forget you," "you have been my crying shoulder," etc.
The really comfy couch at the Stordahl's house- a perfect bed at 3:30 am

Lowlights
$80 for a mashed potato bar and flatbread sandwich
6 hours of sleep Friday night
Dylan losing the mingolf tournament
4 hours of sleep Saturday night

Had I actually been a member of the SRVHS class of 1998, the weekend would have been perfectly nostalgic. Dylan and his friends had a great time reuniting and catching up. We are so blessed by the friendships that were started in adolescence and have continued to grow over the years.

The weekend has given me hope that perhaps my 10 year reunion will be bearable..... probably not though!

Long lost friend Matt Warner and Dylan (see styled hair!)
