I threw a party for Paul last night, it was sooooo fun. I asked all the guests to bring a three minute prepared speech on the topic of their choice. We had some really great presentations. I think my favorite was “Commonly held myths about boobcakes.”
{Pictures clockwise: Rob and Emily wrote a song for Paul, Paul teaches how to draw a human, my lemon cake, and Christian gives a speech about bicycles.}

Great party (as always).
After the boobcake speech (with the best visual aids of the night by far), my next favorite was on giraffes. I had no idea they slept less than 2 hours a day.

That sounds so fun. I’m laughing and I don’t even know what people said. I’m not good at speeches.

Great idea Jordan. It’s like a built in variety show. Nate has asked me NOT to throw a party this year. He said he needs the year off.
Happy Birthday Paul!

Love the idea, but must confess I'd have massive anxiety preparing (and might pass on the speech last minute)
