GSB Five Year Reunion

Has it really been 5 years? You'd think it's been far more, given the explosion of spouses and babies at Ryan's 5 year Stanford Business School Reunion! Incredible to have friends fly in from all over the world to connect (very unfortunate that the Bay Area couldn't accomodate with good weather!).

Highlights of the weekend include LPF hopping with Josh, Kimberly, and Alice, brainstorming wacky business ideas with Beis, Messerschmitt, and Abbas, swapping kid-travel stories with Doug and Sarah, watching Spencer brave the carnival but get freaked out by the Falon Gong in the Quad with Jason & Tiffen, lunchtime conversations with Jason and Jeremy, cocktails with Noah (I still owe you one!), and an all-star dinner table of Josh, Kim & Alice (out from Boston), Dave, Nikita & Christina (out from the London), and Kenji and Jun (out from Tokyo). We felt lame-- dinner was 3 miles from our house! Thanks a million to Terry-Mama for babysitting!


Ryan & Dave-- I don't think either one of us had bags under our eyes like this 5 years ago before either one of us had kids!

Here's whose to blame.... Tyler and Christina, adoreably holding hands on our couch the next day.

Fantastic to finally meet Nikita and Christina.... definitely on our list to visit the entire family the next time they are out visiting Nikita's family in Trinidad!


We saw Josh and a very preganant Kimberly in Boston last September, just weeks before Alice was born. She's an adorable baby, and Josh and Kim are expert parents.

Our main conclusion from the weekend is that we can't wait another 5 years before connecting with some of these great old friends.... so watch out, we're resolving to stay in touch!
