Silver Wedding

We just got home from Bakersfield after eating breakfast at my aunt's house. I'm still tired from the 2 hour drive but I dont want to rest or sleep..so I decided to transfer all pix to my PC and upload to ofoto while blogging. =P

It was their silver wedding celebration last night at Coco Joe's. Darwin was assigned to be the DJ and I'm the photographer. My aunt was asking me if we'll going to put up a business coz it's a perfect match.. you know for parties and all. Hmmm, it's just a hobby I guess but who knows =P Anyways, we got there an hour early and the restaurant is still closed, so went to Sonic for lunch. We don't have Sonic in LA and the place is kinda nostalgic coz you'll order from your car and eat it there. But since it's gonna be too messy, we just ate at one of the "few" tables outside.

We went back to Coco Joe's and met up with my relatives and introduced Darwin. They like him =) We setup the DJ equipments and my cousins helped as well. They have a really nice ambiance, it has a tiki theme and everyone is wearing a Hawaiian attire. The party started at 5:30pm sharp but the food was not served until 7pm. Ooohh, I was sooo hungry so while waiting for food, I took a lot of pix.

The food was Ok.. maybe because I'm still full from the burger I had at Sonic. I got to meet some of AJ's friends and there's this one cute girl who's only 14 that's being paired with my cousin Sernan. Oh, young love. They look cute together.

There were about an hour of presentation before the REAL party started. DJ Darwin started playing Top40s until my aunt requested 70s/80s music for the oldies =P Oh, Darwin was bringing down the house, everyone was dancing and I'm so PROUD that my lovey is spinning. =P

When it's time for HipHop, youngsters (including me.. hahaha) went to the dance floor and showed what they can do. It was funny when my cousins danced coz they did this crazy step I've never seen before. I went back to check on Darwin and there's a lot people asking for "their" song but there's this one crazy guy who requested for "sweet" music. How can you make a transition from hiphop to sweet?

The party ended at 11pm sharp and we left after 30 minutes. We went to my aunt's house for the "after party" and Darwin told me that it's only like 7pm coz everyone is still up at 12mn. =P We had dinner, videoke, beer and margaritas. We called it a night at 2am.
