Christmas 2019

December 25, 2019 No Comments

Merry Christmas!! We all dressed up in matching pajamas this year!

Cousins came over early in the morning to exchange/open gifts!

Then we headed over to Toni and Thomas’ house to start the standing rib roast and make s’mores outside in the patio.

Janie helped out by peeling all the potatoes. Ankong helped keep the trashcan lid open.

It was fun watching all the kids play together.

All the kids got a new toy called a Springling. All had a different animal that comes with a spring-loaded container. They got really creative with how they played with them.

We had our annual Christmas get-together with Mama’s cousins and their kids. This year we made arrangements to buy $10 gift cards and each kid got to choose two.

We are in Southern California for the week! One of our first gatherings was at Uncle Dayantha’s house. Trevor (Auntie Yoon’s son), Oliver (Uncle Dayantha’s son), as well as Andrew and Sienna (Holly’s kids) came over for some fun!

Andrew brought over his chocolate fountain and the kids LOVED it.

By the end, chocolate was everywhere. Leela was thoroughly enjoying one of her favorite things in the world – CHOCOLATE!

The kids had dinner and a sleepover with Alice and Leela at Yai and Ta’s house. Uncle Johnny brought over spaghetti and meatballs from Olive Garden and it was a hit.

Space Shuttle!!!

September 28, 2019 No Comments

Today, we went to the California Science Center with all the cousins. There’s a cool aquarium area as well as a pretend play area but the thing that Peanut was looking forward to most was seeing the Space Shuttle up close!

He was pretty happy to see it but kept asking when it was going to blast off. He and Thomas were glued to the screen that showed the lift off on repeat.

Here’s Peanut giving a beaver a check-up in the pretend play area.

We love it when all 6 cousins get to play together!

The kids are back at Yai and Ta’s house for one more day before flying home. So Leela and Alice came over and they walked to Tutti Frutti for some frozen yogurt. So fun!
