Thanksgiving Party 1999

As a bit of background, my sister has been having a party on the Saturday after Thanksgiving for longer than either of us can remember. It started out as just her party, and then I started going, and then the FOM list got started (an email list that keeps us in touch), and then, finally, the significant others started coming. This year was especially great. Danielle was back from Ghana, with her boyfriend, Rob. Peter brought his friend Jennifer, I brought Scott, and Natalya brought Trevor. It was an amazing party. In this picture, front row: Peter, Trevor, Natalya, Rob, Danielle. Back row: Scott, Richie, Mike, Talia, Ilya, Whitney, Aaron, Jennifer (on his lap). Laying across the center: Lynne (me!) (We almost always have the laying-across-the-laps picture)

Most of the pictures taken that day were done by my mom after she and my dad got back from doing the visiting thing. Here are the Stuy Girls.
And here are the Stuy Guys.

This year, there were actually some couples at the party! Here's Trevor and Natalya, and and Lynne and Scott. (Dani and Rob didn't do a "couples" pic. Sorrry!

And here's Whitney and Natalya, who are not really a couple, but they look so cute anyway!
You know it's really funny how a bunch of people can look really funny out of context!
And here's the context. Actually, I was showing everyone the web site for The Day Danielle Came to Visit on my parents' computer. Ahh. It's all so meta.
You might say that someone falling asleep at a party is bad, but when Richie falls asleep at a party, well, that's just Richie. hehe.
Somewhere there's a roll of film with some more candid poses, but I'm not entirely sure where it is. When I find it and develop it, I'll add them here!
