MR BLACK/PAPER party behind the scenes -

and this is how it all began . . .

-

-

we were "backstage" pre-party

as jo, tim and i got ready and helped the kids into their costumes for the evening.

it was half the fun of the night.

-

-

of course, "costumes" in this world

run the gamut from luke's tuxedo to jo's custom gown by bic owen

to assless aprons

and aviator helmets.

-

-

i was fond of rusty's choice.

-

-

then the night, began . . .

-
