Dave, Lize & Sascha.
liz
The joy that it brought Frank was priceless.
liz
Liz with the birthday boy!
liz
After cake, we headed outside to watch Frank do his most favorite thing in the world....
liz
...that there's a cake coming!
liz
Hahah. I love this photo! He still has no idea...
liz
In addition to a holiday party, it was also Franks' birthday! Here's Liz sneaking up on Frank with a cake mid-song.

On Saturday evening, Grant and I headed out to Brooklyn to Frank & Liz's. We played Cranium with some friends of theirs and then...

Who wants an ice cream sandwich? (This photo makes me scream with laughter every single time I look at it)
liz
BON APPETITE!
liz
Frank entertained while Liz tended...
liz
Later Saturday night, we headed out to Frank & Liz's apt in Brooklyn! Liz decided to make KNARFs (Just "Frank" spelled backwards - Frank's way of taking a whole pizza and folding it in a half into a giant calzone) but their oven was on the fritz...
liz
On Friday night Liz and Frank came over for dinner!

I love this photo of Frank. I'm not 100% sure, but I think this cake was for Lydia's birthday.

liz
Liz's ugly-face.
liz
Then Liz busted out a birthday cake! Happy Birthday, Frank!
liz
Just in case there was any doubt about who planned this party (*cough* Frank's Mom *cough*), all the guests received silver lasagna serving spatulas. So awesome. Congrats Frank and Liz! Now get to work on some grandchildren already, will ya?
liz
Cutting the cake.
liz
Frank's dad and Liz.
liz
Seth and Liz.
liz
Seth cutting Liz's hand off.

Heather, Colin (formerly known as "Big Daddy" who from this day forward will be known as "King of Clocks" or K.O.C - go ahead, say it out loud!), Liz and Frank.
liz
Grant and Liz (who look like they're brother and sister in this pic, no?)
liz
Liz and squinty me. (It was so bright outside I could hardly open my eyes with out sneezing and tears pouring down my face).
liz
Yay! Mrs. and Mr. Picarazzi!
liz
Best picture ever! Liz and Frank making the rounds to all the tables. (Boy, this "small party" is getting to seem more and more like a REGULAR WEDDING! And Liz, isn't that like a wedding dress you're wearing? Mrs. Picarazzi totally tricked you two into HAVING A WEDDING! Hahahaha.)
liz
The first dance!
liz
Awwww. (Rumor has it that Frank had to go to dance school for the party. Thought you'd be able to avoid that with the whole "sneaky beach wedding" thing, eh? WRONG!)
liz
Yay! Frank and Liz taking a walk down the aisle in front of the crowd. (That'll teach you to sneak off to an island and get married!).
liz
Congrats, guys!
liz
Frank kissing Mrs Picarazzi for the very first time.
liz
Carrying the bride across the, uh, beach thresh hold.
liz
Here's a pic from their ceremony that they emailed out to everyone. Pretty rad, huh?
liz
Newlyweds Liz and Frank. A little after 1am, I left Fatty's and headed over to Misshapes to visit...
liz
Fatty, Liz, Mike, Colin and Heather.
liz
Liz showing off her awesome shirt.
liz
And then egged on by our cheering, Grant launched into...
liz
Siege, Katie and Liz on the shiny, pleather couch.
liz
After the show, the newly enaged Liz (aka - the future Mrs. Frank Picarazzi) show off tha rock. Congratulations you two!
liz
On Sunday, Fatty and I headed out to Brooklyn to meet up with Colin, Heather and Frank in Prospect Park. After a few hours of tossing the 'bee around, Heather suggested we check out the Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival at the nearby Brooklyn Botanical Gardens.
liz
Liz and me.
liz
Liz napped.
liz
Liz and the Birthday Boy.
liz
This photo makes me happy.
liz
Some of us hitting it harder than others.
liz
Liz took a nap in Seth and Erinne's room and when we went in there to wake her up, look what we found!
liz
Something about tits! Ha!
liz
Sooo good! (PS - Note the dribble mark on Liz's shirt).
liz
What's up, seven people in a compact car. (PS - Check out Fatty's "I got a chick on my lap" face. Hahah)
liz
After our duet, Liz led the ladies in song.
liz
Something by Madonna. Borderline, maybe?
liz
Stern Liz, Heather, Colin and Colin's hair (it's so volumnous, it's become a separate entity. In fact, from this day forth, Colin's hair will be called Bill).
liz

liz
Liz, Fatty, me, Birthday Boy, Heather and Colin.
liz
Here's Fatty and Liz getting ready to surprise Seth.
liz
Somewhere in the backwoods of Vermont, we ran into this cool little diner that was made out of a converted railroad car and decided to have lunch there.
liz
Awww.
liz
We woke up early on Saturday morning, thought about skiing for a half-day, but when Fatty informed us that his pulled muscle still really hurt, it was the only excuse we needed to reset the alarm for noon and go back to sleep. We made it into the car a little before 1pm and started driving to Boston for Seth's surprise party.
liz
Later that night, we hit the "town" and had some pizza at a restaurant named after...
liz
Just because Liz caught us acting like girly-men didn't mean she was going to wear anything else but...catjamas!
liz
Liz as "nordic breakfast model."
liz
Shortly there after, I wiped out pretty badly and we decided to hit the lodge for some lunch and hot totties.
liz
The next day (Thursday), Fatty and I headed up to Midtown to the Girl Scout's offices to pick Liz up (she had to put in at least a half day).
liz
After we checked into our hotel room, Fatty and I decided we were going to see if any bars were open and Liz decided she was going to go to sleep. As we were getting ready to leave, she came out of the bathroom in this hot number and explained "Frank (our good friend and Liz's fiance) made me take the flannel cat pajamas - he didn't want you two clowns thinking anything dirty - and these flannel pajamas that, as you can see, have cats on them, will no doubt prevent that." Hahaha.
liz
Vermont is far away.
liz
And after we were done taking pictures of us doing things that you probably ever shouldn't do in front of a sign that says "Girl Scouts"...
liz
We still managed to somehow get caught in rush hour traffic leaving the city and it took us like 2 hours to get 45 miles away. Slightly discouraged, we decided to get some roadside food. And Fatty decided to make the best face ever.
liz
There's Little Fatty in the background! Then Pepper (wife of Little Fatty), Frank, Liz, Regular-sized Fatty and me.
liz
Monday night we all headed over to see Frank and Seth (who was in town from Boston) sit in with some hot band over in jazz/blues bar in on Grove Street in Greenwich Village.
liz
After a long day of moving, we all headed back to my apartment on the Bowery where Frank and Liz thanked us with pies from Lombardi's! Mmmmmmmmmm! Best pizza in the world. Then after dinner...
liz
Later that night I went out to Frank and Colin's place in Brooklyn to watch the Superbowl. (They actually had two TV sets set up right next to each other: one with the game on mute, the other showing HBO Sunday night TV! Hahah. Curb Your Enthusiasm was so much better anyway.)
liz
Me (complete with gay camo hat?) and Liz.

liz
Some people just don't learn.
liz
Frank and Liz caught in a gratuitious ass-cupping.
liz
Add a little Liz to tha mix and the next thing you know...
liz
See? I'll bet you know where this is headed...(ps - Liz, you have a sick onion).
liz
And I found the Fatty in a rare, intoxicated state getting frizzesh with the ladies.
liz
Around 3am, with the girls getting more and more out of control, I bid Fatty and the gang farewell and headed soutwest to Tribecca.
liz
Liz and Frank dancing. These captions are sort of boring, huh? Well, don't worry, things are about to get a whole lot more interesting.
liz
Meanwhile, back on stage, here's Liz Reich about to pop her Cherryoke!
