We decided to have a Purple Party for Olivia's birthday. This was the most organized party that we had ever had, and tons of fun.
Kissy face pictures started early that night. We still try to coordinate open and closed eyes, it rarely works.
again...
Isabel... CLOSED eyes. :-) heehhehe
The band playing. Gavino is pretty awesome!
It was Gavino's birthday too, so Olivia and he blew out the candles.
The man in the middle is our Organized Crime professor. He was doing a jig, and Harasyn and Lauren joined in.
Lauren has to put her drink down to do this dance.
Petrus doing a solo.
CHEERS!!!
This is Patrick, I don't know if he has made it in a picture before. He's a lawyer from Canada. He is responsible for making sure that our glasses are full at all times.
One more try!
Petrus and Olivia dancing.
Birthday dance!
Emily and Michelle doing a "nice" pose at the food table.
Awww... kisses.
After a while Olivia's boyfriend Harry took the stage to entertain. Emily decided she was going to help him sing "Sweet Home Alabama."
They couldn't remember how it started, so I said "Big wheels keep on turnin', carry me home to see my kin" but due to the mindsets (i.e. hours of wine) they couldn't get past big wheels keep on turning, and then went into Proud Mary
Emily, Kate and Julia. Notice the purple! It was supposed to be an everyone dress in purple party because the Italians wear head to toe purple (old and young, male and female, they all wear it), some took that more seriously than others.
:-) It was a FUN night!! :-) HAPPY BIRTHDAY Olivia and Gavino!
You look like you are having a blast! YAY! Your professor looks like a trip. Your blonde friends looks a little like Nicole to me. Do you see it too?
ReplyDeleteI see that, Cherise. Clay and I think that Emily and I look kinda alike- LOL, Katie can't get away from us- we have dopplegangers in Italy! :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW Katie, you have KILLER cheekbones in those kissy face pictures- I am totally jealous! Totally "blue steel" :-)
ReplyDeleteCherise~ Harasyn? They do look alike! I hadn't noticed before.
ReplyDeleteHeather~ You and Emily do look very similar, although I am sure a lot of that has to do with the hair color, style and skin tone. :-) Gingers! :-)
Thanks for the cheekbones comment. :-)
