Alice & Laura wanted to throw us a good-bye party- and boy do they know how to throw a party! It was such a special night being with all of those who are close to us here in Jakarta. From neighbors, to embassy coworkers, to Brian's international attache colleagues, to Macy's teacher even- everyone was there!
When we arrived, this giant personalized flower board was in the front yard greeting all the guests- and us-
This cut out was SO awesome & creative-
Brian with our British poker playing friends Ginny & Mel-
Aussie pals Luke & Katrice-
Neighbors Sym & Chris-
The Korea swag they found was such a surprise-
Kiera & Katrice-
Our backyard patio wine drinking neighbor pals- the Emmon's
Fanah was my fun alter ego-
2.14k others- our anniversary date!
I REALLY love this saying-
Most of the McCullough-Kirkham-Richardson kids-
Me & Kiera-
We brought over ALL our leftover wines & booze- which was a significant amount. Someone had to drink the baby bottle of liquer-
Of course the night turned into a karaoke party-
Sym & Macy's theater teacher turned our friend, Mr Allerton-
One more Elvira from this amazing duet-
The two Amandas-
Alice & Laura hired a Mongolian bbq catering company to come and make dinner for us. They set up outside and Alice's backyard was suddenly transformed into a poolside bistro-
All the kiddos-
"See you again"
I feel like I was telling Laura NO MORE WINE!
Our Indian friends, Ahmitab and Shivani-
Embassy coworkers and fellow pokeno player- the Weiss'
Our Bali buddy & Macy's teacher Keith-
Love seeing the phones in this picture-
When Shane is on the harmonica, it's a great song!
The gong was a great way to make everyone leave!
The final-final party crowd-
Oh how I hated for this night to end. It was so incredibly special. We miss miss these people who have poured into our lives and our children's lives and made our days in Jakarta so much richer. And on a happy note- I was finally feeling better! What a crummy time to be sick...
