A Housewarming

Our friends, Aaron and Jessica, have bought and are nesting into their first house and we were lucky enough to be invited to the housewarming party last Saturday! We braved the elements to get there (it had been pouring buckets for about two days in a row, and in case you haven't heard, Pasadena floods a little in that kind of weather) and it was totally worth it to be able to hang out with Aaron and Jess and Matt and Natalie. Here's some of what we drove through on the way over: There was a really good turnout at the party--lots of friends and family and people from work came out to celebrate with Aaron and Jess. They had a ton of good food and some really tasty spiked punch that Jess claims to have just 'thrown together'. Here is the only picture I could get of her and Aaron together:

Matt, looking classic as always...

Brian and Natalie demonstrating how inebriated they are NOT...yet...

With the exception of Jess's grandfather in the background, all of these people about to do a shot are teachers:

Aaron letting Matt feel his warm breath in his ear, and Matt liking it...

Aaron says, "Thanks for the hooch!"
