A Very Merry Ted and Carrie Berry Weekend

This weekend was a short but sweet burst of laughs, memories, and great friends. Ted and Carrie made the trek from Cincinnati to visit sunny Durham (for this lucky weekend anyway). We did Cook-out, pancakes, 9th Street, church, sushi, junk food, lots of "dishing", meeting some friends, Arrested Development, and a hearty Elmo's brunch. It was just like the extravaganzas of old. We can always pick up right where we left off and never miss a beat, which is a good indicator of kindred spirits in my book. Not to mention we withstood a colossal overflowing toilet incident and the subsequent messy clean-up. Amidst that adventure, I was reminded of the fact that whatever disaster befalls Carrie and myself will surely end in fits of hysteria and laughter. (Don't forget we were stricken with scabies together in college. After things like that, you learn to laugh at the ridiculous scenarios in life...not that we wouldn't anyway.)

Without further ado, here are some highlights of our most excellent weekend.
It's always a good time with the Berrys and I am so grateful to count them among my life-long friends. Thanks for the visit, and y'all come back now, ya hear? Snort snort
