summer

last weekend my roommates and i planned a themed get-together.
theme: "sophisticated night out"
details: everyone dressed like rich/preppy kids (think white pants with polo shirts, cardigans and popped collars).
activities: badminton (complete with regulation lines on a grass court, surrounded by lush vegetation) , lawn bowling, and croquet.
food: burgers (with healthy all wheat, cracker thin buns), chips, cookies, fresh cherries, homemade ice cream
overall success: a-m-a-z-i-n-g night with lots of fun people and laughter.

i will admit however, i did come home with a couple sore muscles (that i hadn't known existed before) because of the intensity at which the badminton was played. there were some competitive spirits to say the least.
my wonderful roommate kelsey was behind the whole night, and threw together a fantastic summer evening.
there may be round two this weekend.

What a great idea for a party. I'm actually throwing my little sister a garden party for her birthday, and badminton is not a bad idea.

Love you girl!
