Jenni's concert is less than 2 months away and if were going to do something special we need to start planning now. These are some of the things we've done in the past:
At Jenni's first concert we got her picture and "Las Tequileras" done on sleeveless black tops.
2 years ago for Jenni's concert at the Gibson we got rhinestone designs that say "Las Tequileras" and ironed it on to black tops. We also got the Divina butterfly logo and ironed it onto blue jeans.
Last year when Jenni was at the Gibson, we all walked in with a white rose and when Jenni sang "Amiga Si Lo Vez" we threw our rose's up onto the stage.
For this year's concert I think we should do something different, I don't want us to repeat anything from past concerts. Since we are such a large group (Tequileras) I wouldn't want to get tops made or all dress the same way since we all have different styles and it's hard for such a large group to agree on one thing. So please, if anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Also, since the concert is on a friday (August 10th) we won't have time like last year to get together for dinner before the show. I would like it though if we can meet in front of the Gibson to take a group picture and all go in together. The concert starts at 8:15pm (if they actually start as scheduled) so if we can start meeting in front of the box office around 7 or 7:30pm it would be great.
Tradition is that our anniversary party is the first weekend in the month of August. The first two years we had the party on the first weekend in August, the first one was in North Hills and the second one in Santa Ana. The third one was moved to the month of September (it was in Pico Rivera) because Jenni's concert at the Gibson was on the first saturday of August. Since Jenni's concert this year will be on a friday (August 10th) and some people will be coming from out of town for this it would be best to have our party the next day, saturday the 11th. So mark your calendars already for August 11th. The place, time and all the other details haven't been set yet.
THANK YOU..........Jenny goes to the party?.....I think that it would be nice for all of us to have the same color of tops so asi nos destingieramos y no confundirnos con todo el public that way pueden decir ahi estan l@s TEQUILER@S cause we all going to be together.....well es lo que yo pienso.
Hello Everyone....well...on the ideas I don't know...but as I had mention it before it would be a great idea to have it that sat...since most are comming from other places... and whatever it's ok with me ;)
Well i hope we have the party near north hills, since i leave here Y no tengo carro, so i hope we can have it near here...
Well, so far, history has not repeated it's self. In other words, all three parties have been in 3 different cities (1. North Hills, 2. Santa Ana, 3. Pico Rivera, 4. ????)
RE: CONCERT=) WHATEVER YOU GUYS DECIDE TO WEAR IS FINE WITH ME JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT'S UP. YEAP IT'S COOL TO MEET AT 7:00PM AT THE FRONT FOR FLIXS OH AND TO GET OUR TICKETS.. RE: PARTY =) ITS COOL WITH ME TO HAVE IT THE NEXT DAY AFTER THE CONCERT. WHAT IS NEEDED FOOD? DRINKS? BOTELLAS DE TEQUILA? D.J.? ALOT OF CAMERAS? A HOUSE....I HOPE IT'S AROUND THE O.C. AREA... MANNY CASH DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE RIDE...

In response to some of the questions and comments:
- Jenni has always been invited to each of our anniversary parties, she went to the first 2 but wasn't able to make it to the last one because of work.
- food? drinks? DJ? etc.- I think it would be best to do things like we have done it for the past 2 anniversary parties where we all chip in on the food, eating utensils, DJ and tables and chairs rental, but everyone brings what they like to drink (beer, tequila, wine coolers, soda, etc.)
- for those of you that are not sitting with the rest of us at the concert, you are still welcome to show up early for the group pics
- I will take the large banner that is in the last picture, but everyone else is welcome to make there own and take it to the concert.
- Mary, thank you for offering your house for the party, I'll take it into consideration
Finally, so far we have one idea for the concert already, I know you guys can think of more.
OK WELL I AGREE WITH THE ANIVERSARY TO BE ON THE DAY AFTER SINCE MANY OF OUR TEQUIS WILL BE HERE FOR THE CONCERT...ABOUT THE PLACE SORRY I CAN'T OFFER MINE...AS MANY OF YOU ALREADY KNOW MY FATHER IS TOO ILL... AND I DON'T THINK IS A GOOD IDEA...ANYWAY ORANGE COUNTY IS NOT TO FAR FROM WHERE THE CONCERT WILL BE TAKING PLACE...(THANK YOU CLUBBINGDIVA) AND ABOUT PITCHING IN ...TU YA SABES JUANITA JUST TELL ME DE ACUANTO Y YO ESTOY DE ACUERDO. AS A MATTER OF FACT, IF YOU NEED HELP WITH ANYTHING ELSE JUST LET ME KNOW OK? ABOUT THE ATTIRE, I THINK IS GREAT TO WEAR THE BLACK BLOUSES WITH THE LOGGO THAT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT BUT THIS TIME WITH BLACK STRETCHY PANTS SINCE LAST YEAR WAS BLUE JEANS... THAT WAY WE CAN MATCH IT UP WITH SILVER ACCESORIES FOR THE LOGGO TO STAND UP MORE OR WHITE TO WHOEVER IS WEARING THEIR WHITE HATS...WHAT DO YOU GIRLS THINK? AND ABOUT WHAT TO GIVE JENNI I AM STILL THINKING ABOUT IT...IT'S KIND OF HARD CAUSE YOU CAN'T REALLY THROW MUCH AT HER...NO VALLA SER QUE NOS PASE LO DE LA ROCK! ...LOL PERO PUES I AM STILL THINKING TO SEE WHAT SONG CAN WE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF TO GIVE HER SOMETHING.
HEY THE ANNIVERSARY PARTY IN ORANGE SOUNDS COOL. WELL THIS IS PRETTY CLOSE TO WHERE I LIVE (SANTA ANA). WELL IAM NOT SURE IF IAM GOING TO THE CONCERT THIS YEAR, BUT FOR THE ANNIVERSARY YES. I HOPE THIS TIME I CAN MEET ALL OF YOU.
yes, it includes all tequileras and tequileros. Make sure I have your email on my mailing list (if your an official tequilera than I should already have it along with the rest of your info). For tequileros, Greg has forwarded me the email list for the guys. For the party, the RSVP will be done by email and the address will also be sent through email, it will NOT be posted in the forum or anywhere else.
WE SHOULD ARRANGE SOMETHING WITH BUTTERFLIES SINCE THAT'S THE LAST SONG ON ON HER LATEST CD MI VIDA LOCA ....AND SHE DEDICATES IT TO HER GENTE....WHAT DO YOU TEQUIS THINK???

hopefully we'll get more input regarding your note Mrsperez.....but i think it's an idea to be considered since on her cd it has lovely purple butterflies all around it....
Atrevida I like your idea about doing something with butterflies, like inolvidablemariposa said, we could wear it in our hair, or also like a pin to wear on our clothes or as a charm on a necklace. I really doubt they will allow us to bring in live butterflies since the Gibson is indoors.
YOU KNOW I LIKE THE IDEA TO PIN IT ON OUR CLOTHES THAT WOULD BE CUTE....LETS SEE WHAT THE OTHER TEQUIS THINK....I WOULD PROBABLY SAY ON OUR SHIRT AND HAIR.... PURPLE ONES.....
HAY- CUATRERO TU Y TUS IDEAS.....IF YOU CAN FIND THEM OR EVEN MAKE THEM, BY ALL MEANS BRING THEM OVER I'LL WEAR IT ****IMAGINE THE REAL BUTTERFLY ON MY SHIRT WITH THE WINGS FLAPPING AS I WALK INTO THE CONCERT*****HOW FUNNY, BUT-INTERESTING- VERDAD DAYANA?????? OH TU QUE OPINAS....WE SHOULD FILL UP CUATREROS HEAD WITH A BUNCH OF PURPLE "ROACH-BROACHES" lol ANYWAYS KEEP THE IDEAS ROLLIN'
Okay, the party this year will be in clubbingdivas house (Orange, CA). I will be sending an RSVP email sometime next week so you guys can keep an eye out for it.
Does everyone agree on chipping in on the cost of the food, DJ and any other party expenses? We've done it this way for the past 2 years and this is the way it has worked out the best.
Drinks, we think its easier when everyone brings what they like to drink (beer, wine coolers, tequila, soda, etc.)
Time, what time should we start the party at? I think not to early because Jenni's concert is the night before, but also not too late.
DAMN,,,,ANNETTE AND CAYA YOU GUYS ARE STRONG PEOPLE TO COME OVER HERE AFTER WHAT YOU GUYS ARE GOING THROUGH.....WELL I'M SO EXCITED (HONESTLY) HOPING TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN..... :)
Clubbingdiva suggested something to save some money. If someone has an Ipod or mp3 with lots of space and has a large selection of music we can use that instead of a DJ.
I can't remember exactly how much the DJ charged us last year, I think it was about 300 dollars for 6 hours. He started playing at around 4pm, but everyone really started arriving around 6pm, so from that experience, if we do get a DJ we should have them start playing later and for less hours.
For those of you wondering about how much each person is going to chip in with, here are some numbers from last year:
we spent about 300 on DJ, 100+ on the meat, I spent less than 80 on the cake, eating utensils, chips, salsa and other stuff I bought for the party. I made the beans and someone else made a macaroni salad and the rice.
about 40+ people RSVP'd, about 30 actually showed up and we had A LOT of left over food. Everyone ended up chipping in about 15 to 20 dollars, it would have been less if we had bought enough food for just 30 people. What I learned from that was to really stress people to RSVP and if they aren't going to show up to let us know so this doesn't happen again.
well If you guys want to savemoney on the cake...I make the best cakes... so I can Make a cake for all the Tequileros y tequileras, Just Let me know what size or aproximetly for how many people...So que dicen, oh and tell me the flovor too.
DAMN,,,,ANNETTE AND CAYA YOU GUYS ARE STRONG PEOPLE TO COME OVER HERE AFTER WHAT YOU GUYS ARE GOING THROUGH.....WELL I'M SO EXCITED (HONESTLY) HOPING TO SEE YOU GUYS AGAIN..... :)
WELL GIRL....WHAT CAN I SAY MY TIA WOULD NOT WANT US TO MISS THIS OR CHANGE AND BE DEPRESSED....SHE WAS A STRONG WOMAN WHO DID MANY THINGS AND EXPERINCED SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS IN HERE LIFE...AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE WOULD WANT US TO DO...PLUS GIRL AS MUCH AS IT HURTS THE HEART I FIND JOY THAT MY TIA IS LIVING WITH THE LORD IN PEACE AND IS NO LONGER SUFFERING IN THIS WORLD!!!!
