The MPI had a Christmas party this year, and for once I was not travelling and able to go. It was quite a lot of fun, at least as can be had with two cherubs in tow and some degree of responsibility to try and maintain. It was also a great chance to grab some shots of the different folks at the MPI. The photo below shows Brienna with J.
The photo below shows N on the left and D on the right, I'm not sure about the woman in the middle. Brienna has done a lot of work with N on various projects and thoroughly enjoyed the collaboration - hopefully it can continue when we head over to the UK.
The photo below shows D with her husband F and their cute little girl. They are from Mexico and I had an interesting, if sad conversation with F about the "War on Drugs" and its effects on their country. Sadly, I can't really see how the situation in Mexico can really improve until this absurd "war" ends, which at the present time is nowhere in sight.
And of course, no Christmas party would be complete with a visit from der Weihnachtsmann, in this case, D. D, and his wife I, have been a really great addition to the social scene, organizing a bunch of fun gatherings at their place, including a Halloween party where D had the most amazing tiger costume. I think it took Aralyn at least five to minutes to really understand that it was D underneath the stripes, whiskers and tail. This time she wasn't so easily taken in.
