Thank you Del, Arnie, Oralia, Della, and other Reunion coordinators and contributors! You nailed it! It was wonderful to see everyone, especially my dear sister Juana's beautiful daughters Mona and Ashley, and nephew Erik (of the Wenatchee SWAT team!) and his wife and kids. You are so special and I'm so glad you joined in. Taylor is a doll!!! I hope to be able to see more of everyone in the years to come. I missed Michael Del and Mia alot! And Matt, Amanda, Aaron, Alex, it makes me smile just to see you! And although everyone was very busy I was feeling so blessed to have such a great group of people to call family so if I didn't say more than hi and hugs, I'll catch up next time. Brenda, Mark, everyone is so interesting! And Brenda please know that I can say Miranda and Marcella in the same sentence now! They made me smile so much with their sweet dance routine. I must say I felt 100 years old seeing the kids all grown up with their own children. Del's performance, and Arnie's, Gabriel's great show! Wow! Lets do it again! Nikki, thanks for sharing your pictures, I'll share mine the same way. Arnie, thanks using your skills to put Brenda's photos onto the DVD . LUV it!! It really felt like a family reunion and hopefully we can make it better for next year and thereafter, bringing everyone in closer. I look forward to meeting Rodney (I used to babysit you!) and his family. I think we're going for the same dates for the reunion next year since everyone seemed to be able to plan for mid July.... Love ya, mean it! Hasta la vista Whitney Gonzales

this message goes out to ALL family memebers: It has been 26 days since our reunion, and I, for one, think it was a fantastic reunion. Please share your reunion pictures via this website with everyone, I know I would love to see them.Also I have a CD of pictures that Brenda Lee took ,and I am trying to put it on this site, so keep checking to see if I've figured out how to do it.Until then , contact me to get a copy if you are interested, there are some awesome pictures in this cd, and Brenda Lee did a great job snapping these picturesTHANK YOU!! BRENDA LEE! Also, I know that Whitney and Della have expressed to me their desire to head up the family reunion committee next year, ( and please correct me if I've misunderstood, I have before ,cause I'm old and senile, so forgive me Whitney and Della) but if everything is as I understand it, I think we should start communicating our ideas to those whom would take the lead, and let them know we are willing to contribute whatever is needed. I am interested in a date for the reunion as soon as possible, because we have family (the Alvarado branch) in Texas who need to make plans for this long trip to join us, so I hope everyone reads this and keeps in touch, Love ,Estella P.S. I almost forgot, Mia will be attending our reunion next year, and she is also interested in being on the planning committee, I know that this crew will add spark to all the planning and I can hardly wait to see what great plans they come up with.

If you are at a loss of what to bring to the reunion. Please think about bringing a salad (pasta, fruit, jello, taco, you get the picture). We could use more salads at "Stella's" and "Sun and Fun". Thanks!

This is so exciting! It's hard to believe it's really going to happen. It's been a long time coming and I for one am going to totally enjoy it. I'm looking forward to seeing all of my nieces and nephews and their families. What a great family. Hi Aaroneous, Hi Otis, Hi Rhino, Hi Amanda, Hi Ramjet, Hi Chams, Hi Ashes, Hi Mona, Hi Pickle, Hi Roses Poses and Hi JR Pies. And when I meet the Texas gang I'll butcher their names too.
