One of the things I love most about my family is that everyone has a great sense of humor and thoroughly appreciates a good story or a teasing comment. In fact, my brother consistently holds the title of "funniest man on the planet" (for me) for his dry, smart ass remarks.
Last night was the most perfect night for that. My dad and his wife D. prepared great food and wine and had their friends over for a wonderful celebration. After we showed the ring and retold the engagement story, I sat at a table with B, my brother, and my dad and did nothing but laugh for hours. Then we listened to a Dane Cook comedy CD for a few minutes and nearly cried with laughter, and then kept going with more stories. Lots of stories about all the crazy things that happen with cars, that seemed to be the theme for the night. Seeing people get hit by cars, pushing cars in your slippers for 5 blocks to save the $50 towing fee, getting hit by blind old ladies, etc. On and on... It was a truly joyous night, we couldn't have asked for anything better.

Oh, how fun! And I love Dane Cook. You have to rent the video "A Vicious Cycle" because it just makes it that much funnier to see the physical aspect he puts into it. I laughed until I cried.
My sister M. and I for some reason can get each other going and then we can't stop. I just love to laugh and will remind myself as I age that laugh lines mean I've had a lot of happiness in my life.
