We’re sad that Legg Mason is over. We had the best tennis in the world every night for the last week and had so much fun catching up with friends who love the sport.

Crush Party!
|
| |
 |
|
We went to Glover Park’s Kitchen 2404 Thursday night as hostesses Michael Kors’ Mandi Howard, Alexandra Hunihan, Katelyn Calonkey, Angie Jusino and Sophie Pyle took it back to college with a crush party. Girls invite their crushes, and at the end, each gives the guy she really likes her heart (pinned on during the night).

The gals invited a few good guys to celebrate. Here Bambi Osborne is with Penn Oil Foundation’s Roby Penn.
