Chaz and Mercy's wedding

November 8th was a very joyful and memorable day for our family here on Maui. My cousin Carol's son Chaz got married to Mercy here at St. Anthony's parish. Many of the relatives and friends from Los Angeles and Oahu were able to attend this festive event. It was a great family reunion with lots of conversation, fun, food and music. There were close to 500 family, relatives and friends to join with Chaz and Mercy at the Wailuku Community Center. Pictured here are our cousins who joined in this celebration. It was a five day affair with the extended family here and from the Philippines. As you can imagine we had lots of delicious Filipino food and desserts. A number of our family members took time to visit the Island, went shopping and toured many of the attractions here in Maui. I joined my Uncles and Aunt playing golf at the family golf tournament. We also dined at some of the local spots including Tiffany's for ono food.
