Mey, thank you for your open invitation. It makes me feel so welcome at your place kahit na in reality I know it is impossible for me to attend dahil super far ako diyan. I envy you guys, you live so close to each other. So what if you have to drive a few hundred miles to Maryland, eh ang sarap naman ng blue crabs doon and you experience the warm hospitality of Mey and family plus meet up with "special" friends.

Have a great time! Enjoy life, it's too short! Send us photos ASAP.Don't forget to work on the scrapbook! You've done a good job already so keep it up! Veron, would love to see it in 2010 when it is finally completed !

Thank-you for the invitation, I wish I can come but I used up all my PTO(paid time off) this year.I look forward to seeing your pictures of the minireunion.You have a beautiful family!

Mey P. Sanchez said...

Thank you Melle, Oddie and Cynthia. Wish you could be here too. Oddie, is the 2010 reunion just for class 1978 or is it like the one held last July 4? I'll try my best to attend, God willing.

oddie said...

Hi Mey, it is similar to the July 4reunion at Foster City, however, we will have class 78 only reunion prior to the event @ the house, like what we did at Sarah's. You will enjoy it, I promise you.....
Please come......

Hello Mey and Everyone, Oddie's house is super! I believe it can accommodate all the nightingales, hala Oddie nag-imbita na sa bahay mo walang pang opisyal na imbitasyon, though I am not yet done with my video presentation or blog presentation kasi kung anu-ano ang sumusulpot na gawain hindi ko tuloy matapos ang aking presentation though my storyline na at ang ending ay sa escondido, or Oddie and Caloy's stairway to heaven.

Sarah said...

Hey Mey, thanks for showing your family pix. We realy had fun last July's reunion. Hopefully mas marami pa ang maka join in 2010. May mini reunion pala kayo. Kung malapit lang yan, I would have come. Ruth, akala ko ba magba back to back tayo(concert)sa karaoke sa bahay. Wala lang time as everybody was busy doing something.We'll plan that in San Diego in 2010 sa house ni Oddie.

Type ko iyan karaoke, Sarah, sabihin mo sa akin when the time comes and magdadala ako ng bala or dapat pala iyan ang dinala ko sa inyo. Hindi ko alam na type ninyo ang karaoke. Akala ko dito lang uso iyan eh. Wala nalipasan na ako ng panahon.

Melle said...

Hey, Sarah and Julie diyan tayo sa Pilipinas mag karaoke, sa January sa Araneta Coliseum or sa Ultra tayo nag concert LOL

Flor/Liza Bolos-Odi said...

Mey,Thank you for the invitation.It is nice to see your family. Sayang,but I'll try to come next time.

Melle said...

Liza, welcome to the blog! Wow, you have made me so happy! When you see Cecile and Chato, turuan mo sila how to do it. I remember Rachel gave us tutorial on how to register/sign-in in one of her recent comment, it is a very helpful tip. Regards to Obet and your 3 boys!

Mildred said...

Liza, it is too bad that you will not be able to make it, we will miss you.. I will bring my two girls because we are coming from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I hope that some of the Nightingale will bring their children too.

Telly said...

Hi! Mey. I'd love to be there and meet up with you guys but it is not possible this time. Enjoy and have fun. I will look forward to seeing you at San Diego on 2010.

Ruth C. said...

Sayang nga at hindi natuloy ang karaoke sa bahay mo, Sarah.We'll make sure na mayroon karaoke sa bahay ni Oddie in 2010 plus ballroom dancing tutorial din with Cora and Celso :):):)
Mey, wala pa akong coverage for my work on Aug 9..Pls pray na makakita ako para makapunta ako sa inyo..I do not want to miss seeing all of you again..
O sige..

Mildred said...

Please Ruth, you have to come, I need those crabs... LOL.. SERIOUSLY you have to come, we are going to drive 10 hours from South Carolina to see you guys, so please come!! We are staying at HOLIDAY INN SO I CAN HAVE a lot of time with the Nightingale so try your best to come.

I missed the July reunion, I will not miss this time, so please try!!

Melle said...

Ruth, I will pray for you. Don't worry makakakita ka ng magcover sa iyo! Kailangan din ng paparazzi doon kaya dapat kasama si Val. LOL
Take plenty of pics and don't forget to sing the Happy Birthday song to the celebrants. Ruth's birthday is August 22nd and Sarah August 25th. We have only 2 bday celebrants for August in our updated roster.We also have 2 couples celebrating their wedding anniversary in August.

I was disappointed to read Veron's e-mail that she couldn't make it for the 9th, but I totally understand. I'm sure we'll see each other another time-pag-ni-raid namin yung bahay niya unannounced, right Veron?, we'll just have to make sure she'll be home at that time. We'll try to make sure we have time for KARAOKE, but pls. don't let me sing, I'll have my husband do that part for me. If somebody can teach us line dances or ballroom dances-("can you Ruth?") we're more than happy to learn, bring your music pls. I have a few line dances I can share myself, so we can burn off some of the food we'll consume esp. the crabs that Ruth is bringing...he..he.. so we're definitely set for the 9th-sure attendance by Lele, Chato, Cecille, Tess n husband, Ruth, Mahgene n husband and Mildred and family. Haven't heard from Amy and Susan yet, maybe they'll surprise us, I hope.
