Girls trip!

Last weekend I took the girls on my own down to LA to party at baby Owen's 100 day celebration. We had such a fun time hanging out with all the cousins and eating yummy Chinese food. I was a bit nervous taking the girls on my own but we made a big deal about it being a Girls Trip and that they needed to behave themselves. It seems to have worked because for the most part, they did well. Can't wait to do more of these with my girlies in the future! Here's some pics from the weekend festivities. 

Ready for blast off! 

Nora LOVED hanging out with Owen.
In fact, she spent most of her time cooing at him
instead of playing with the bigger kids.

Don't you want to just eat him up??

I took out my wedding dress to show the girls
and let Evie play with my veil.

All dressed and ready to par-tay!

ummm, Nora, do you like Chocolate?

Thanks, Auntie Samantha, for the yummy chocolate cupcakes!

Cousin Oliver with Auntie Gale.

Auntie Meredith and the gang.

Owen fell asleep in the car on the way to lunch on Monday.
He little hands were holding on to the toy. So cute!

Such a sweet little face!

Nora loves her Yee Yee!

Saying goodbye was the hardest part.
Evie loves Ian and often calls him her best friend.

Snuggles on the flight home.
It was a late flight (got in at 8;30) and
 Nora was pretty cranky by the time we landed.

Japan trip

We got back from Japan about a week ago and we're still talking about what a great trip it was!  Japan has never been super high on my places to visit but for a lot of reasons (I've never been, it's clean, it's safe, it's different) we took the plunge and booked it as our summer vacation this year. It helped that our friends, the Wongs, went last year, raved about it and loved it so much they were going again and we were able to coordinate so that some of our trip overlapped with theirs. It helped even more that the yen is at a 10-year low (maybe all time low?) against the dollar, which, aside from airfare, made everything quite affordable.  Look how low the yen is! We lucked out that it kept falling after we booked our tix in Dec. Since this was our first big overseas trip since COVID and with kids (or, lets face it, SINCE kids), I dove into prepping for our trip - including trying to keep up my Duolingo streak of learning Japanese for at least a few minutes everyd

Family time

I had to do a quick trip to LA towards the end of July to say goodbye to my Uncle Pang, who passed away a few weeks earlier. I have fond memories of fun cousin time at his house in Palos Verdes and Uncle Pang taking us to the beach when we were younger. I remember how he delighted in making us kids squeal with laughter by pretending the car ride was a rolleroaster - we'd take sharp turns and all of us kids would slide to one side of his Volvo station wagon or he'd slow the car down to a roll and we'd all chant that we couldn't let the car stop and it would inch slowly forward at a stoplight.  Although it was a sad reason to get together, I think he would be happy to know that the weekend was also a wonderful get together with family. Because it was fairly last minute, none of the kids flew over which meant us "adult cousins" were able to have long talks and linger over food. Kin and Meredith were able to host a summertime bbq at their house and we had a nice t

Glasses

Nora got glasses! Now all of us in the family are four-eyes, haha. Her prescription is low but she was super excited about getting these. When she is older and hates glasses, I'll have to remind her how happy she was to get these!
