more birthdays!

Our friends Katy and Jesse also had birthdays within the same few days...
(so did many other friends of ours... Nikki, Min, Kathleen, Priya, Dan)

party like it's 19... um...

We decided to go to our local on-campus pub for some New Year's Eve festivities and celebration.






















I feel like Pub just isn't always complete without Peter and dancing. :)

last pub

This is what we do when we aren't ready to go home yet... play outside in the ice and snow...

Rosie the riveter, Mike, and 2 robots walk into a pub...

Eva was helping Doug paint...










Beka was Rosie the Riveter.

Doug was Mike from Mystery Science Theatre.

Our wonderful host that takes care of us each week, Carolina and her husband Dan.
Doug managed to win most obscure erudite costume which meant a $15 gift certificate to a local grocery store.

Beka managed to win for the costume that most represented Union's values and a $20 gift certificate to the same local grocery store.

Mason won first place with his baby Jesus costume... absolutely awesome! ↓




With a snarling professor Snape →

And Jerry as Jeremy Kirk ↓




Joe was the Bran in Raisin Bran (there were two raisins running around too!)







So this was really funny when it happened... but the picture makes no sense now. →


















We liked the guy who dressed as a Mormon and then handed these out to people...
