tagged together in 56 photos pauly + meredith Pauly came over on Friday evening and we braved the drizzling rain to check out... A little later that afternoon, Pauly came out to see the place! Pauly came back to our place on Wednesday and we... Grey shirt gang! Later that night Siege and Annie came over... We got shit-hammered and ended up going back to Matt's place! ...and had a couple of snacks while we waited... So excited to check it out after hearing about it for so many years! ...joined forces with Pauly & Cynthia and drove out to Queens for a day at... Beach & Dim Sum food coma recovery party / nap festival at our place! DESTINATION! ...but then their eyes would snap open and we'd all have to pretend that we weren't just taking sneaky sleepy photos! BUSTED! Hahaha. Action shot. The only thing better than the beach is leaving the beach to discover the ice cream man. Gurj rolled over and realized her wet bathing suit made a happy face. Haha. So much blanket real estate. The beach was practically empty this time around! Searchers of the Sea, indeed. Still managed to meet up with Pauly on the way! Wooooo! Still beardtastic, though. ...to pick up the all the painted pieces of the awesome loft that we hired Pauly to custom-build for our new apartment! Later that night Pauly and Amanda came over. Buds and snacks. We even had family night when we got home! On Wednesday Pauly came over. LURKdorable! Holy shit, this was an epic day. Later that night Pauly came over for Family Night and he showed up with CINNAMON ROLLS. We got drunk. Gretchen, Mer, Jaymes and Pauly! Happy birthday, Jaymes! Double fist hoist. Haha. Around 6pm we decided to pack it in for the day. ...Far Rockaway Beach 60th Street! ...met up with Pauly and took the A train out to.... 2am. Leigh, Lisa, Pauly and Mer. It was a perfect summer night so we took full advantage of the roof. The tide started coming in around 4:30 and I dug a "preventative trench" to protect our towels from the encroaching seawater. Later that night Lisa and Pauly came over for family night. Then later that night, Lisa and Pauly (and Pizza the dog!) came over for Family Night. Take two: Now with more puppy cuddling. And then much later on, Lisa and Pauly came over for family night. I set up the timer on my camera and put it on top of the TV to take this FAMILY NIGHT PORTRAIT. A little before midnight, we hopped in a cab with Lisa and Pauly and headed out to Williamsburg to attend... NOW! THROW THEM IN THE AIR NOW! On Sunday, Pauly and Lisa came over for FAMILY NIGHT and we played more ski jumping on Wii Fit. 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 helped Pauly with something on the computer. Pauly put Lisa's tiny leather vest on and suddenly he went from having a manly carpenter's beard to having a Gay Cowboy in the Village People beard. Mer and Pauly. Friday night tall boys! Lisa, Sarah, Meredith and Pauly Mer and Pauly. Handsome beach kids. Here's us walking down the street totally wasted even though it was only 11:30pm! A short while later, ta-da! And it was also one of the first nights we hung out with our new family-tv-night buddies Lisa and Pauly (seriously you should click that link and watch their video, The Broker, right now). Here's Meredith with Lisa ...
