    Hualalai with Mom & Dad Rhee

    After spending 5 wonderful days in Oahu, we went over to Kona for the rest of the week to meet up with my parents. We sent them to enjoy Maui while we were in Oahu. Thanks to all of Grace’s travel, she was able to set them up in a beautiful corner suite at the Westin at Ka’anapali Beach. I think they may have been a little too spoiled because by the time they got to Hualalai, they seemed to be missing their spacious digs. In any case, we had a really wonderful time together there. We all golfed together one day (mom drove the cart and took pictures). Eemoh’s kids wanted to do something special for mom and dad’s 40th anniversary this year, so they treated them to a helicopter ride across the island to see the lava flows. Grace and I golfed together again that day.

    We enjoyed Hualalai on our honeymoon. Since then, I wanted all of our parents to be able to enjoy it, too, so we were very glad to have mom and dad enjoy it with us. Hopefully, next time, mom and dad Park will join us, too. This was our last hurrah before the baby. It was a wonderful trip beginning to end.


  • Rhonda and Ky’s Wedding in Oahu, Hawaii

    Rhonda and Ky’s Wedding in Oahu, Hawaii

    We traveled to Oahu, Hawaii to celebrate Rhonda and Ky’s wedding with their family and friends. As this was our last trip together before the baby, we decided to stay in a hotel in Waikiki. Most of our other Kellogg friends rented houses together near the beach in Kailua. Erich was staying in the hotel next door, so we were able to do a lot together. We played golf at a beautiful (and difficult course) on Saturday. It rained a lot and was pretty muddy out there, but it was fun. Saturday night, we met everyone for dinner in Waikiki. The wedding was held on Sunday, October 22nd, at Moli’i Gardens in Kualoa. The bride and groom arrived in Hawaiian style on a boat. Our beloved Federico Papa officiated the outdoor ceremony. I must say that it was a very touching and emotional wedding and after Ky’s speech to his bride and parents, there was hardly a dry eye under the tent.

    The celebration lasted well into the evening and Ky’s old Navy buddies provided much of the color. Here are our pictures from the trip. However, their wedding photographer did a much better job of capturing the beauty of both the event and the couple – check them out here.

    Tigers vs. A’s

    Being born and raised in the Detroit area, we were thrilled to see the Tigers make a run for the World Series. On October 10th, Simone, Marty, Grace and I were able to catch a game in Oakland during the playoffs. We had great seats. Ted (one of my favorite people from 2Wire) happened to be sitting right behind me with his son. They were rooting for the bad guys. The Tigers won!

    You know the sad ending to this story…

    Daniella & Ray

    Saturday evening, we joined Danella and Ray to celebrate their wedding. Grace and I have both known Ray since college. After reconnecting, we were very happy they were able to make it to our wedding last year. Ann and Jeremy, Gina, and of course their good friend, Art, were all there. We also ran into a few other old familiar faces from Michigan and Cranbrook connections – it’s always a small world. Congratulations to the beautiful couple!


  • Theresa & Matt’s Engagement Tailgate

    Theresa & Matt’s Engagement Tailgate

    On October 7th, Andi and Greg hosted a Michigan tailgate to celebrate Theresa and Matt’s engagement. It was an absolutely stunning football Saturday in Ann Arbor. The crew on hand for the big Michigan State game was large indeed. This was our first time meeting the beautiful Jolie Tru Lobdell. Also, Maeve TenBroeck Taras made her first Michigan appearance. We were lucky enough to meet her on Friday over at Jeffrey’s parents house, where we also had the pleasure of catching up with the Drs. Taras as well as the dogs, Max and Colin (who has warmed up to me after 10 years).

    The Carlsons, Burnetts, Allards, Carnes, as well as Rana and Nomaan, Rowan, CB, Durbin, Cohen, Fritz, Regan, Lamarchial, Marty, Simone, Brownie, Dr. Jin Hong Park and Christine Chung (the lone MSU fan), were all on hand to toast the happy couple. Of course, Fall 89 was in full-force to honor our pledge brother, Matt. It was great seeing everyone, though briefly. Thankfully, the good guys won the game. Go Teresa and Matt and Go Blue!

    Amanda Huang’s 1st Birthday

    On Saturday, September 30th, Dora and Ben had the whole gang over to celebrate Amanda’s first birthday. There was quite a spread and the highlight was the tallest banana creme cake I’ve ever seen. We took some home (so Ben wouldn’t eat it all) and enjoyed it for a couple of days. Happy Birthday Amanda!

    Mom, Dad, and David Visit Us

    The weekend of September 23rd, mom, dad and David visited us at our new place in Burlingame. Charles also joined us for the day. It was a short visit, but we were glad to have them over. Hopefully they’ll come over more often after the baby comes.

    Sugar Publishing Party

    Friday was incidentally my last day at Avistar. While I appreciated and enjoyed my short time there, Brian had been getting the band back together from Sugar Media (Arthur, Krista, Brian D.) and invited me along. They had already been hard at work to turn Lisa’s pop culture passion into a real business. On Saturday, September 17th, the whole team had dinner at Bistro Aix. We met the rest of the crew and headed to Lisa and Brian’s afterwards for smores with Katie, Jack, and Lucy.

    This is going to be fun…
