When Sean and Sarah announced with about a week's notice that they were
going to host a barbecue at their place in October, I was a little bit
dubious; was I going to have time to make it? Would the weather hold?
It didn't take me too long to realize that I didn't care - I needed to go
up and see my good friends. It turned out that the weather was fine, and
I did have plenty of time, and all was well...

Let's Get This Party Started!
It took a few hours after I arrived for the party to really get started in earnest, but it did happen.
|
Hostess Sarah
Sarah always seems to enjoy being in the thick of things. (Michelle, Sarrah, Greg, Selena)
|
Emilija
Having a young child around always makes parties more exciting.
|
Emilija, II
Especially more exciting is how she was dumping apple cider on things!

|
Ingrida
Val's kid's expression was actually pretty cool, in that "I'm going to explode" kind of way.
|
Anand
Did I even have any decent pictures of Anand before this?
|
Eva, Profile
Behold the shorter hair!
|
Sarah
At this point, I believe that she was raving jealously over Eva's short hair.

|
Eva
It is a good luck. I approve, Eva!
|
Selena
One of Sean's newest co-workers, just come over from England. She seemed happy to meet an American that liked Terry Pratchett. I approved.
|
Neil
Selena's boyfriend, and another Sean co-worker. Really, I was impressed with the whole batch of Sean's co-workers...
|
Neil and Selena
The protective hovering was appropriate, given she'd only been in the States for a few days...
|
|
|
|
Greg
Another worthwhile Sean co-worker. At the very least, it's fun to know that I can still rant about Engineering (and I was only an Electrical guy!)
|
Doug
And one final Sean co-worker, who had recently finished a marathon. Whoo!
