You literally can't have a bad day with these guys around.
best
...and then puppy batteries would run out. Look at how her head is hanging totally limp! Hahaha. Dead tired!
best
Hahaha. This photo makes me laugh out loud. (I also like how there's a rat in the background.)
best
...and their matching Anvil shirts. Awwww. Thanks for inviting us, Sar! We had an awesome time.
best
Aw, really?
best
Heroic. I want an oil painting of this scene.
best
10 MORE POINTS! Yes! The whole bar was very interested in the spectacle of all this going on at 2:50pm on a Saturday. The best part about doing tequila body shots is that you don't even need to pour salt on your hand first, because people are naturally salty! Yay!
best
Hahaha. Check out the winning smile and graceful poise. This guy is 100% professional. Other bartenders take note. (PS - Check out the guy in the background making an "Oh" face.)
best
Meredith looks like a Royal Tenenbaum in this photo. Hahaha. So good.
best
I love how her stupid feet go in opposite directions. Landing gear up, please.
best
Maddy, like most miniature daschunds, is a complete and total love bug.
best
Look! It's got a belly that's almost two hand-lengths long!
best
...and then they settled in together.
best
I love how Maddy looks like she's sitting in a little hand-seat. Hahaha.
best
...there was a shriek of glee! Jen had found the tiny baby in her cake.
best
...FOR THE WIN!
best
Ease on in...
best
Awwww, look at how Murdo's cradling her little puppy butt.
best
SMASH THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!
best
It took her all of about 10 minutes to use her razor sharp puppy teeth (and tiny puppy raptor claws!) to create a puppy-sized hole in the gate's mesh that she could easily wriggle her way through! Most adorable jailbreak ever!
best
Maddy was forced to slink away in what is probably the most adorable picture of dejection ever taken.
best
Awwww.
best
Trotting around doing some exploring. (Look how long her front leg looks! Ha!)
best
This is your new home! You live here now!
best
See? It was so unbelievable. This photo looks totally staged with her little paw draped over my shoulder, but this was how she wanted to ride right from the get-go. It was about this time that we realized we'd gotten a weirdo.
best
As soon as we got her into the warmth of a cab, she stopped with all the strange mewling noises she was making and immediately settled down. We were trying to hold her on our laps, but she kept climbing up and wedging her self between our backs and the seat. It seemed like she really wanted to sit perched up on our shoulders.
best
She arrived wrapped in a blanket inside a tiny crate. We took her out and she was cold, shivering and making adorable "mewling" noises. We took her out of the crate and she was delighted to be with us immediately. We couldn't get over how cute she was.
best
...Iron Cross hub caps (with a skull in the center) and awesome "HONKY LIPS" graffiti on the passenger side, rear corner-panel. Someone paying awesome homage to...
best
Happy January 2009!
best
Party soldier.
best
Meredith told Bob that she wanted to punch him in the face and Bob shrugged and said "Go ahead then. Punch me in the face. Hard. Do it." Meredith was happy to oblige (and I was happy to snap this picture just BEFORE impact was made). The look on her face is awesome. "I know I shouldn't be doing this BUT..."
best
Once more with Bob falling down!
best
...which led to a huge impromptu party sesh on the beach!
best
Hahaha. So awesome.
best
My parents cutting some serious rug. My dad is ALL about the hustle. Yes!
best
Brett and me.
best
Congrats, you two! We're so happy for you! (Photo by Nick Adams Photography)

Amy and Brett. (Photo by Nick Adams Photography)

Yes! (Photo by Nick Adams Photography)
best
Check out the awesomeness! Soooo good! (Photo by Nick Adams Photography)
best
Peanut Butter Dreams (while wearing a little neckerchief!).
best
Happy Birthday, Ellen! We love you! Check out how zonked out Piper is.
best
Piper loves peanut butter.
best
...and satiate everyone's caffeine cravings with a delicious new concoction he called "TEA-PUCCINO!" It was like the Grand-Slam of dad jokes. This picture rules.
best
After the show, Gina took us backstage and we got to say hello. So rad. Thanks for having us, we had a great time!
best
Adorable.
best
...transform into an operatic songbird with a decorative lamp shooting out of your head! (This is basically Lisa transforming into a Dr. Seuss drawing)
best
Who's gonna do the extra left-over shot? Awwww, yeah. Sneaky style!
best
Haha.
best
Hahah. LOVE THIS. Ollie, Amanda, Karen and Sarah get ready to shoot 'em. (All expressions in this photo are great but Ollie gets an A+)
best
As soon as I saw this photo, I was like "THAT'S OUR DOG." Meredith was excited and was like "YES!" (Later, Meredith told me that she didn't think the dog was all that cute but she trusted my judgement. Haha).
best
Haha. Every time I've seen her sing she blows the doors off the place.
best
<3
best
I love how Fatty's pulling his titties up out of his suit jacket to try and get with the program.
best
(Nervous laughter)
best
After discovering that my camera was basically a "panty x-ray" device for those black stretchy pants, we did a round-up.
best
Later on in the evening, I took a picture of Jen bending over with the flash on and it went right through the pair of shiny, stretchy black pants she was wearing. I also really like how it looks like KT is pressing on Jen's asshole like she's ringing a doorbell. Bonus points to The Wang for laughing between her legs. I call this photo DING-DONG-DING-US.
best
I gave her step by step instructions and stepped back to try to capture an action shot. Less than a minute later, BLAMO! Check out the action shot I managed to capture of Amanda cutting the bottle top clean off!
A couple days after the party, we all received an email from him with a link to a surprise video he'd edited together with all the clandestine hula hooping video he'd shot. It. Is. Amazing. My favorite part is the highlight reel of everyone throwing their hands up and leaning that starts around the 1:45 minute mark (right after Siege does the "white man's overbite") and just keeps getting better. (PS - Make sure you check out Ellen's sideways "tit-sway" at 2:14. Amazing.)
best
Peggy does not approve of the hussy Bobby's recently taken to hanging out with.
best
Effortless cool. Haha.
best
So good. Shot by Tim Zaragoza.
best
Leigh gets her very own mini me. So jealous.
best
...my dad took us next door to see Bruce's condo. He'd already done a bunch of work to "Brucify" the place. Check out the MEGACOUCH he put in the living room. It's the only couch I've seen where sitting isn't an option. You can ONLY lay on the thing. It's basically like having a leather bed in your living room.
best
After I got back, Meredith and I got krunked on Pina Colada wine coolers (I love how tropically festive it looks next to the holiday basket in the background)...
best
Finishing up.
best
All of the houses have screened in back porches.
best
...but because the only birds we ever see are pigeons, this felt like some next-level Jurassic Park type of action.
best
After we'd gotten Meredith ambulatory, it was time for us to be taken on a tour of the new community. We traveled by GOLF CART of course. Check out my parent's ride! On the front it says "The Battjer's"...
best
Bar's still OPEN!
best
Is this my drink? I love this photo so much. Party on, party soldier.
best
Hahaha. This is my favorite photo of the night. Bonus points to Berk for STILL having the Cosby sweater on.
best
Court and John Berk! The open bar ended at 11pm, but Court made an executive decision to throw down some plastic and keep the party train rolling. Yes! Love how the Cosby sweater has made it over to John at this point.
best
Edie has junkyard teeth! Edie has junkyard teeth!
best
White man's overbite!
best
It's good to have friends.
best
This is a fantastic ugly face. It looks like she's tasting the most terrible thing ever and it makes me laugh every single time I see it.
best
He looks like a friendly holiday walrus.
best
OMG. Back in the day, Leigh used to be out late every single weeknight in the Lower East Side - so much so that she became friends with some of the garbage men that had that route and they used to give her and her roommate Jessica rides home to make sure they got home safely. Haha. We got out of Lawrence's party and when a garbage truck passed us, Leigh hailed it like a taxi AND THE GUY STOPPED. Hahaha. Let's hear it for free rides!
best
RAGE! This gets the award for most cathartic birthday moment.
best
I tried to sneak my arm in for a sneaky photo and this is what happened. Hahaha.
best
A bug pointing out a bug.
best
Right after parking, we found Ray and Simon outside doing a lil' pre-gaming before...
best
On Monday, Meredith and I went out to NJ to meet up with the rest of my family to attend my grandfather's funeral. After 2 long years of being in and out of the hospital and a long, slow, decline, he finally passed on. Love you, Grandpa. We miss you lots.
best
A-dorable.
best
It's like a photo of Peter Griffin going skiing! (PS - Remember when Fatty and I borrowed all my parents old ski gear to go skiing and it ended up looking like we were going to an 80s party in Williamsburg?)
best
And soooo many great photos. Check out my parents posing for this clutch ski photo circa 88.
best
Uncle Bruce and my dad back in the day. 1974? 75? Not sure, but it most definitely pre-dates me!
best
Me and Brett with our dog Sam.
best
Hahaha. Chris and me are swashbuckling corsairs.
best
Choose life, indeed. This photo is so pefect. Mandy as George Michael is something I will never be able to unseeeeeeeee! Happy Halloween!
best
Speaking of epic, later on that night I met up with Mandy and Lawrence who were dressed up as WHAM! HAHAHAH.
best
Let's not forget the bronze sheen and perfectly-penciled chinstrap. Man, this photo simultaneously makes me laugh and shiver.
best
Halloween was on a Friday and that kind of sucks because then EVERYONE comes into town and the streets get a little messy. I was moseying down 2nd Ave on my way to a party and I randomly ran into Josh and Jenny. A full two years before the Jersey Shore debuted on MTV Josh absolutely murdered with his douchebag costume. (Check him doing the shocker and everything!). Jenny was the Wicked Witch of the West. Man, I can't stop looking at Josh's outfit. Ok, and that killer pout. Genius.
best
At the office a bunch of people dressed up - but all costumes took a backseat to Aziza totally SLAYING Thiller-era MJ. So perfect.
best
Oscar the Grouch!
best
Edie's expression in this photo is the dog equivalent of when Ralphie's mom makes him put the bunny suit on in A Christmas Story.
best
Edie was there wearing the Crayola Wiener Crayon outfit that Meredith Leigh made. (Sorry, Leigh! I forgot!)
best
Hahaha. I love this photo. Me, Mer and Millie show off our see no, hear no speak no evil TRIO.
best
Hahahah. Epic.
