Cousin weekend

By
Over President's day weekend, Ian and Owen came to visit and the girls were beyond delirious with happiness and excitement over seeing their cousins. Evie will sometimes say "Ian is my best friend", which Nora has now added "Owen is my best friend". It's super cute and so great to see these kiddos playing so well together. Cross your fingers that lasts forever! 

It was a fun filled weekend of hanging out at home watching the Olympics, visiting the Museum of Flight and a nearby brewery, and trekking up to the pass for some sledding action. Here's a few snaps of the fun!

They spent hours playing with this marble game.
It was a good Xmas present from PohPoh and Goong Goong!

We watched the videos we took during the day and apparently it was funny.
So cute and sweet how these two are buddies!

The only "good" group shot I got of these kiddos in the snow.

Even Owen went sledding and loved it!

There was also a good snowball fight. It was Scott versus....

everyone else!

Owen thought it was funny when his mommy would smash snow in her hands.
 Nora's reverse snow angel!

Happy as a clam playing with the snow. What a difference from last year!

You can't really tell in the pics but the snow was new and soft and deep!

Japan trip

By
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

By
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

By
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!
