Later that night, Gurj, Quinn, Ellen and Kaitie came over to our apartment to watch Sunday night TV and eat all sorts of terrible food. Ooof, Dominos Pizza. In NYC! The shame, the shaaaaaame.

Someone brought a nice bottle of Johnny Walker Black which someone decided we should all do shots of.

Then a couple songs later, Meredith, KT and Siege joined the party and we all nerded out together. Just cuz you're getting married doesn't mean you gotta grow up or anything! Thanks to everyone for keeping the surprise a secret and for coming out to help me surprise Meredith! It meant so much to have so many people we love be there to share that huge moment in our lives!

On Friday night a whole bunch of people came over to our place to hang and play some Cranium!

Four days later, I finally was feeling well enough to get out of bed. Meredith and I were supposed to go out to New Jersey for Christmas Eve, but I was still feeling pretty awful so we decided to stay in NYC.

And then we came back to the apartment, met up with Meredith, and got crunked on the housewarming wine Ellen had brought with her!

Then, we headed back up to our brand new apartment! Here's Meredith, totally over-joyed back at the new apartment after discovering that our new apartment had FIVE big closets which meant that one of them could be used as the new Rat Hole. (Meredith likes to drag a mattress and blankets into a tiny closet and read books and take naps INSIDE the closet with the door closed.)

We finished around 5:30. Here's Scott, Matt, Mer and Murdo celebrating after getting the final item into the apartment. After all the lugging, we decided to all head out for Thai food and feed everyone that helped with the move. Thanks so much for helping everyone! Every day I feel lucky to have the friends that I do. ;)
