emily's boulicious birthday blowout


this is emily: birthday girl, petanque powerhouse, and my superstar sister



and this is her hangout: the pitstop



it looks like just another racing-themed french bistro



with little cars stuck to the walls



but it's actually the headquarters of the louche nyc petanque underground



pictured here in a menacing pose



sara is widely rumored to be the ringleader



but emily actually pulls the strings



matt is the "cleaner"



and he's got lovely follow-through



tamar intimidates the competition with her shooting skills



while james is equally adept at the high lob



and jedi mind tricks



hannah wrote her doctoral thesis on ballistics



while i was studying zen with the petanque monks of marseilles



ethan takes more of a "p(et)unk" approach



whereas damon favors the esoteric "goofy foot" style



jan trains for cardiovascular endurance in the swiss alps



but in the end it's really about the boozing



and the smoking [we don't know this guy]



and the special ferrari petanque shoes [!]



and the occasional plastic stegosaurus
