July 4th

We had a BBQ at Uncle Johnny’s house for July 4th this year. The kids played on the bounce house and in the tents. We also grilled and roasted marshmallows before the fireworks started at Artesia Park, Cerritos High School, and throughout the neighborhoods.

Moving Day!

The day as arrived! The movers came at 8am this morning and started taking things away to the truck. They worked very quickly and the truck was stuffed.

Maya came to hang out and stayed until we drove away. It was so sad.

9th Birthday

April 20, 2021 No Comments

Today is KK’s birthday!! She turns 9 today and I tend to get sentimental when the first born has a birthday.

She opened her gift from Auntie Jia and Uncle Jason and loves her new scooter!

In the morning, she went to school and found her desk all decorated. They also had a digital birthday wall with messages left by her classmates.

We also went to dinner at Trabocco for a tasty birthday meal.

The chef came out with a birthday treat and sang “Happy Birthday” to her.

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl! We love you!

We celebrated Janie’s 9th birthday at Auntie Jia’s house today. Auntie Jia and the twins decorated their house so nicely!

It was a safari theme and the boys enjoyed playing with their binoculars.

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!!

New Year’s Eve

We are all so happy to say goodbye to 2020. To celebrate, Uncle Johnny made macarons and the kids helped out.

Mama flew back in time to enjoy some hot pot and to do the countdown to 2021. This was the first time spent NYE with the family all together. Happy New Year!
