RE: The Summer BBQ this past Saturday June 28th @ Newburgh, NY
From: Jaime & Castia (your hosts)

HEY ALL, my wife and I would like to formally thank and appreciate everyone from dr1 that made it out to this annual event and helped out in every way possible to make this a SUCCESS! FYI, I do not have an official head count as of yet....but I will say that we counted the number of cars that were parked in at or around my front lawn and vecinity and there were 35...so the actual number of people that attended will easily double that! :)
THANK YOU ALL for coming and please forgive us for the unfortunate scuffle that broke out, FYI that was squashed and taken care of quickly. I hope that didn't scare anyone, apologies to anyone that this may have upset and or children that may have been scared, my wife and I are truly sorry and want to put that behind us....asides from that we both hope that everyone enjoyed themselves!
FORGIVE ME if I looked like I was confused and or overwhelmed. The number of people was so great and hard to handle....must be how happy I was to see the turnout. I apologize because as a host I want to give everyone their due attention and if I didnt spend as much or any time with my guests please do not take it personal, I tried to do what I could to keep everyone happy....I AM HAPPY, I hope you all are as well
A SPECIAL THANKS TO:
dreamsource for hooking it up with the tasty suds! the BUD LIME was a big hit! My wife wishes you well and hopes to see you again soon! You are closeby so stop by anytime

hey guys, yes the scuffle was stupid stuff that happens when too much alcohol is consumed...i have to keep a close eye on that next time and make sure we do not have troublemakers come around....in any case, the real troopers did stick it out.
hey M.A.R. my wife's family left because of the kids really, stuff like that shouldnt damper a BBQ like this, but rather than be put in danger and or want to avoid problems they decided to call it a day. no big deal, we still had good numbers and LOTS of food! glad you were a part of it! :)
bronxboy [miguelito] my buddy Gerb says whatup, he was the one you kept bugging over the freestyling! he hopes to continue to step to the challenege anytime! LOL

You know what Jaime? If you hadn't brought that little scuffle up it would not of appeared on this site.

Not one person from our group made a big thing out of it because it wasn't.

As you can see from the posts, every comment is positive. We realize the effort that you and your wife put into the event and we respect and appreciate it.

To tell you the truth, I thought the worst part of the BBQ was when they let me butcher the beautiful game of dominoes!!! I had NO IDEA what I was doing!!!

I should of been the one being escorted off the premises for my horrendous performance!!!

Hey Berzin, I brought the incident up because my wife stressed to me and wanted me to let everyone know [especially the dr1 folks] that she is truly sorry for what happened. She didn't want anyone to be shocked by it and it means more to her that everyone had a good time and not worry about it. I told her just look back at the number of people that were there and the support we got from everyone. This was truly a grand event we will never forget [and wont let anything lessen the good time we ALL had].
As for you on the domino tables with all the viejos...LOL, you butchered it alright, it's all good we still love ya! I need to buy me one of those tables, it was perfect for the games! LOL

Your wife was just wonderful and she handled the situation with dignity and class, so PLEASE tell her she has NOTHING to apologize for.

Yeah, I can't play dominoes and I don't dance salsa. Then again, I'm only half puerto-rican so I guess they had to leave something out!!!:cheeky:

I was trying to mess with them but they weren't having it.

One of the guests told me that I had to count the different combinations, but I was like "I ain't counting shyte!! Thats' too much work!! I'll just sit here and lose!!!":cheeky:

"Aprender a lo bruto", thats' my motto!!!!!;)

I didn't notice a bump but I knew who she was from the beautiful wedding pictures I saw in the house.
