Cousin Alvin's Wedding




July 17 was cousin Alvin's wedding party! We enjoyed the evening very much at New Asia Restaurant at Chinatown. This was the 2nd wedding party from a previous one held at Healdsburg at the Napa Valley area a week ago. I wished I was able to make it to that one as well, but was still working at Hong Kong. We literally watched Alvin grew up from a little boy with 'watermelon teeth' as his mom would say, to a 31-year old young man. We share the same high school alma mater and lots of fond childhood memories. I deem Alvin and his older brother Raymond as the closest cousins to us on dad's side of the family.

Cheers to Alvin & Melanie on their wonderful life together! I love celebrating good times! ;-) Above are some snapshots of the evening.
