IT'S FRIDAY!

TGIF! LOL, do you remember watching TGIF on CBS growing up? They would show 4 TV sitcoms in a row; Family Matters, Step By Step, Boy Meets World, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, or Hanging with Mr. Cooper! Oh those were the days! My best friend Anna would come over and watch that with me and my siblings and my parents would get us Little Caesar's pizza.

Sorry for the flashback moment! Anyway, I am so excited that it's Friday! Our Friday nights usually consist of Bountiful High Football, which is a lot of fun to support our brother Benj. He is really good and is so much fun to watch. Saturday will be regular Saturday--chores & errands and Sunday I am having my in-laws over for dinner. But the reason I am so excited for this weekend is that it's a 3 day weekend! You gotta love working for a bank--paid holiday for Columbus Day. I am even more excited because it is Nic's Fall Break and we will finally get to spend a whole day together!!! He has promised to limit his studying that day to 2 hours so we should be able to have a lot of fun. I hope that you have a great weekend!

Here are some Friday facts for you:

  • The first letters of the months from July to November spell the name JASON.

  • In every continent, there is a city named Rome.

  • 215 jeans can be made with one bale of cotton.

  • The reason why women's dress shirt buttons are on the left and men's on the right is because when buttons were first used during the Victorian period maids used to dress the ladies, and since the maids put on their shirts the buttons were put on the servants right side, hence the women's left. (Ashley's note: this is a theory that is believed to be true).
  • 38% of Americans eat breakfast everyday.

  • After chocolate and vanilla, orange is considered the world's most favorite flavor.

  • Americans consume the most peanut butter in the world. (Ashley's note: Not a surprise to the Browns!)
