chris prepares plates full of grilled meats. he works both the grill and the smoker. a plateful of wings is about to hit the party!

amie moves in from the rain. on the other side of the apartment, donovan guards (and samples from) the keg, which is conveniently situated near the front door.

jack and sam, friends for years, catch up. along with other guests, they were happy to travel from out of town for the wedding.

below sam consoles, bonnie (anticipating that she would later hide in the windowsill, convincing everyone that she'd snuck outside and creating a partywide search for the not actually missing cat).

as dave and anne party, donovan hides in the corner and takes on the role of guy taking sneaky pictures.

even when it rains, chris couldn't be happier while in charge of the grilling.

soon, everyone finds themselves inside toasting the couple who plan to wed the following day.

KEGSTANDS! this party needs kegstands. all of a sudden, partygoers find themselves upended and drinking from the keg.

after saying he'd do it if i do it, dan finds his legs in the air. upon returning to an upright position he realizes that his nose might be covered in beer. eric couldn't be happier!

sam's up next!

jeremy feigns shock!

and then anne gets in on the action!

those not partaking in the kegstands either check their fantasy baseball teams are stare in awe wondering how they became people who would do kegstands at age thirty.

"me? you want me to do one?"

alex reacts to a long night of celebrating.
