Sweet summer roof.

Quinn had set up a bunch of portable burners so there were lots of pots in action.

On Saturday morning Quinn & Sarah invited a bunch of people over to 3A...
meredith + apt 3a
Good times.

Here we go! (PS - Jared's expression in this photo makes me laugh so hard).

On Sunday night Mer and I went over to 3A to hang with Quinn and Sarah.

Relief all around (even the Canadians were stoked).

Around 11pm that night, a whole bunch of us headed over to 3A to watch coverage of the election results.
meredith + apt 3a
Great success!

Before she could answer, I got down on knee and popped the big one! She was so surprised that at first she didn't say anything. She just kept looking around totally surprised trying to process what was happening.
meredith + apt 3a
Yay!
meredith + apt 3a
As the surprise wore off, she just started laughing and laughing. Her first words back to me after my proposal were inspired by Bret Michaels and VH1's awesomely terrible Rock of Love. She asked, "Will you stay in this house and continue to rock my world?" Hahaha.
meredith + apt 3a
Hahaha.

While Meredith sat on the couch, all of the roof guests quietly sneaked into the apartment but stayed by the door out of Meredith's sight. With everyone in place, I took a deep breath and tried to pretend that I was just casually joining her on the couch. As soon as I sat down next to her, the noisy party instantly went completely silent and Meredith noticed that everyone at the entire party was looking at the two of us and aiming cameras at us. Before she could ask what was happening, I asked "Remember four years ago when you asked me out on this couch?"

After successfully getting settled in to the party without Meredith suspecting anything, Catrinel initiated the next stage of the plan and got Meredith to sit down on the very same couch that she'd been sitting on four years ago when we decided to go on our first date! (Cat was like "It's really hot - come sit here on the couch with me and I can fan us!" Smooooooth.)

Here's Meredith realizing that there's a whole bunch of her friends from out of town hiding in the corner!
Here's the whole thing captured on video courtesy of Siege. (My favorite part is after all 15 seconds of kissing and the room yelling of the word "woo," it gets quiet for a second and Sarah goes "WAIT, DID SHE SAY YES?")

After the fireworks were over, everyone went back downstairs to the apartment...
meredith + apt 3a
Stay classy, everyone!
meredith + apt 3a
...and then Siege stopped by for a quick rimmin'!
meredith + apt 3a
...it was photo time! Brandon crept in for a cuddlin...
meredith + apt 3a
...she's snuck away for a nap! Once the rest of the party got wise to Mer's disappearing act...

In the end, Team NoJenny won! (Meredith decided to represent for Jenny by popping out her knockers!). After Cranium, we all hung out for a while and then someone noticed that Meredith had disappeared. When Meredith disappears from a party, it's usually because...

Team 2 was Gurj, Siege, Katie and Meredith.

...everyone just kept yelling out "FEET FEET VAGINA-FEET!"
meredith + apt 3a
Back to the game!
meredith + apt 3a
Katie, Siege, and Gurj trying to figure out Meredith's pantomime. In the middle of our heated game, a timeout was called when it was discovered...
meredith + apt 3a
Wooo! Party! (Looking at the cupcakes, I'm guessing this was somebody's birthday party? Sorry I forget who!)

Sarah using Meredith as a puppet! (PS - Check out Meredith's sweet-ass souvenir shirt from Stingray City! This was her favorite shirt, but then two days later, Steve Irwin was killed by a stingray and she was like "Fuck, now I can't wear it because people are going to think I'm being smarmily-ironic about his death!" Hahaha).
meredith + apt 3a
...and headed over to Apt 3a to play with Sarah and Brandon in a boys vs. girls battle of the sexes!

We sat around shooting the shit and drinking beers and somewhere along the way our lil' gathering turned into a...
