2011 Family Reunion @ Las Vegas, Nevada
|
Arrivals
Seeing everyone again after such a long time was amazing. There's nothing like family! We just felt more like ourselves as we greeted each other. Memories flooded our minds as more and more relatives joined in. No one could help laugh due to the many hilarious moments we've shared with each other, reminded to us by our mere appearance. |

The Preparation Meeting
At the Firefly Tapas Kitchen & Bar (3824 Paradise Rd.), we got together for some pre-reunion cocktails. We had planned for some coordination for the reunion but our absence from each other's lives for so long prompted interjections of laughter and gasps of hearing each drama we've missed.

Reunion in the Afternoon
Our reunion officially started that morning, Saturday, June 25th, 2011 at the Durango Hills Community Center YMCA (3521 North Durango Drive), as we started to come together to set up for our lunch. Neal & Ruby compiled our family information in myheritage.com and printed out our family tree that stretched over 30 feet (seen as the backdrop in our pictures to the right). Families started to come and join us - some, we met for the first time. As always, there was a lot of food, a lot of laughing, and a lot of catching up. |

Reunion in the Evening
After a quick change of clothes, a 15 minute nap, or shower, we all headed out to the Republic Kitchen and Bar (9470 South Eastern Avenue). |
