Glad to see posts!!

I am so happy to see so many of you posting on here! I love keeping in touch with family! But, we are still missing some branches of our wonderful ohana! Seattle Strouds - how about some pictures of your remodeled house?? And of course, the kids!! And how about the Hirtz clan(s) - I am sure there are happenings in your family! Let us not forget the rest of the Saenz family and the Smith girls, I have enjoyed seeing pictures from the Goodwins - Heather and Drew - your girls are beautiful! Cameron - the wedding was gourgeous! Jay - where are you? Liz and Mike, we know you have a new baby -and i see you can figure out myspace - but all the aunts and uncles would love to see her! Hope I haven't forgotten anyone... Christian and Jay - lets see some pictures too!

Well, we have been back for a week now, soaking up the delicious sunny warm rays! No, seriously, the trade winds have picked up and it has actually been a little more windier than usual. But, I will take that anyday over the cold weather we had in DC. Our trip home was great! It was so nice to be able to see all of the family. I wish I had been able to see more. I am so excited that mom is coming in May to spend the month with me. Deans mom will be heading back East for his niece's graduation from VA Tech. Dean will be back again in the fall for the Dover Nascar race. Dad is working on getting all the newphews and sons in laws there... so let him know early if you want to go. I know he wants Dean to come in June for the Spring race - but we are still recovering from this trip.

Ok - I will leave you with some pictures of the beach.... enjoy!!

Engagement Party Pictures

Wedding Blizzard of '08

Hey everyone!! We just got back from the most fabulous honeymoon. We spent 12 days in French Polynesia (Tahiti, Moorea and Bora Bora). It was absolutely beautiful, relaxing and most of all warm!! Which was a much welcome relief after the 16 inches of snow we received as a wedding gift. :) That is the most snow Cincinnati has received in one day in the last 100 years!!!! Needless to say, we will not forget our wedding day.







As Kelly stated, the day turned out to be absolutely perfect. Even with all of the snow, everything really went off without a hitch. We were so touched by what everyone did to make the day perfect for us (Caterer spent the night at the reception hall, owners of the florist and bakery delivered everything, limo shuttled everyone, etc.) The only thing that I wasn't able to do was have my hair done, but god love my maid of honor, Lisa, and the bridesmaids as they ended up doing my hair and makeup...quite well i might add. :) Anyway, here are a few pictures. I tried to pull out the ones with all the family.

Hope everyone is doing well. Can't wait to see everyone. Need to find a time to do a reunion. :)

Love,
Cam and Sean

I had a wonderful time this week - I am so glad to have been able to see lots of family! If only it had been a tad warmer! Here are a few pictures that I took as well..... Lots of love and aloha....

Pepe & Michelle,Antonio & Danielle and their awesome children joined Henry, myself, our boys, Dad, Chris (yep he really came), Jay & Christian, Jeffrey (Hannah's son)& Blair all for and evening of pigging out at The Red Roost in Whitehaven. We all ate until we were miserable. There is nothing like hanging out with family!!! I hope everyone had a nice Easter holiday! Spring will soon be here! Post your Easter pics!

CAMERON AND SEAN GOT HITCHED AFTERALL.......

Despite about 14 inches of snow !!!!!!! in Cincinnati on Saturday, March 8th, Cameron and Sean were able to have a wonderful wedding. Aunt Paula said that the cake, flowers, minister and groom :-) etc. were surpringsly all there. (not the groom part...Sean we know you are a good man and would show up)

Cameron looked beautiful--no doubt. Fortunatley, they are now off on a warm sunny Honeymoon!
Hopefully we will see pictures soon.

My family was suppose to attend but 20 inches of snow in Columbus literally kept us home.
The entire family extends best wishes to you for a wonderful life together. Welcome to the family Sean (aka "New Guy")
