dinner with ryan and jenn - amy leslie johanna jenn
amy, leslie, johanna, jenn from the halloween costume party filled with teachers letting loose. amy's costume was one of my favorites--especially when she got out on the dance floor. - leslie and brien
leslie and brien brien showed up sans costume. the penalty: putting on one of the hostess's formals. (my costume was scavenged from my closet after realizing that i'd weeded out most of my fun dress-up wardrobe. where is my goth dress?) - johanna and brian
johanna and brian as you can see from the next few pictures, my life is peppered with bri/y/a/ens. fortunately, they all spell their names differently. - melissa leslie bryan mauli
melissa, leslie, bryan, mauli melissa and mauli were two of the (4) hostesses. mauli (a night fairy) was selling cups for drinks for $3. - fruit from marina cove
