I think I have an abnormally high number of dreams...not so much anymore, I might remember 1 or 2 every week or so, but even as recent as last year I would sometimes have 3 dreams a night almost every night. Of course I had more, but I wouldn't be able to recall them. Is it normal for a person to remember 5 dreams a week?

The only thing unique about you is your ability to remember more than 1 or 2 dreams a night. Everyone dreams multiple dreams a night, but most aren't conscious of them when they awaken. I believe this is mostly because the importance of the dream isn't necessary to their waking self.
In other words, the more important a dream is, the more likely it is that you will remember it. Of course, once you start remembering important dreams, non-important dreams start to be remembered as well.
Dreaming is the mind's way of cleaning mental house, so to speak. Everyone does it, but to the degree that we are aware of it varies, not only from person to person, but even from night to night. It's not unusual to go a long stretch with either remembering alot of dreams or not remembering any. Dreams go through cycles just like people, so normal is almost self determined. Normal is what you learn through experience, so if remembering 2-3 dreams a night is what happens to you, than that is the only 'normal' you need to worry about.

No, it's normal to have that many dreams. A person can actually have anywhere to 6 to 8 dreams in a night. Last night I had 3 that I can remember. All this week, I have had 3 to 4 dreams a night. But prior to that, I did not have a dream it seems like for two weeks except for 2 or three. So, it's different for everyone depending on what experiences you are going through on a daily basis.

Yes, it is normal to be able to remember 2 dreams a night! If you enjoy dreaming and taking a look at them, you train your brain to recall tham! Really! And a lot of dreams means a busy psyche. It's good, it means your thinking about what's up for you!
