We had a really wonderful Mr. Cheeks' Birthday Bash '09 Weekend. I'm kinda tired and I think it can all be summed up with some bullet points. - It is possible to pull 6 grown men on water skis with our boat.
- It is a pain in the ass.
- Huckleberry jello shots are yummy!
- Good friends help clean up the place before they start the trek home.
- I have become a little bit fixated on sucking/biting/licking one of the other wives' nipples.
- There is no hot water tank that can accommodate 16 showers. Be flexible, people.
- Some boys are squeamish about touching worms and fish.
- Most hammocks aren't meant to hold 7 people. Six is fine, seven not so much. The flying leap probably did not help matters.
- Mr. Cheeks likes an audience. Ahem.
- Some city folks are squeamish about eating bluegills and sun perch for breakfast.
- Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock were extremely popular on the University of Michigan campus circa 1990. Apparently.
- Apologies to any family with an SUV taller than ours in the McDonald's parking lot in Houghton Lake.
- Skinny dipping is a pretty good ice breaker.
- I have peeled, scrubbed, chopped, rinsed, diced, cleaned, cooked, washed, sliced, baked, chopped, boned, swept and wiped enough for the entire month of September. Probably parts of October, too.
- Mr. Cheeks had a great time and said that he owes me big for my 40th in 3.5 short years.
- Is there such a thing as a sixteensome?
Heh.

I have some suggestions, just saying.
