Giant Twister board December 18, 2015 We have been busy preparing for the kid’s Christmas party this Saturday. We painted a giant twister board for the event. Both Tahlia and Keely got to help out and they had a blast testing it out afterwards. We will have about 30 kids over and we are really anxious to see how the kids will interact and if they will enjoy the games we have prepared.
Keely’s reaction to our old photos June 11, 2015 You guys could not get used to the fact that your father used to have long hair. I almost tricked you and told you that that was a photo of me with my first boyfriend. Tahlia almost made the mistake of saying in disbelief.. “Mom, you would never date someone that looked like ….. hey that’s Dad…”
2014 Year end letter December 31, 2014 Dear Family, I thought it would be a good year to start the tradition of writing a year-end letter. 2014 was a really spectacular year for us. At the start of the year we travelled to Korea and experienced winter wonderland in all of its glory. There were so many amazing experiences for all of us on these trips. Our trip to Korea was simply magical and it was everything that I had […]

Old videos Keely telling the story of The Three Bears (2 years old) October 30, 2014 https://youtu.be/kkrXpaMGcFA Dear Keely, I showed you some old videos today from 2010 when you were just 2.5 years old. You were happy to watch them. After watching the videos you secretly drew a card for your sister.

Don’t Handsome me October 27, 2014 https://youtu.be/u9N-VokI-9M Dear Tahlia, This is an old video from Jan 2010. You were so cute and made up your own words and just couldn’t stop laughing at yourself….
Kai Ma’s visit in Taipei October 12, 2014 https://youtu.be/Fy7yWF4qe50 We were really lucky to have Kai Po Po and her friend Margaret Po Po come to visit us from 10/8-10/12. They stayed at our Yong Kong apartment and we got to see them everyday. We had so much fun together with them.
A drawing for Ryan’s baby July 22, 2014 Dear Keely, Keely you are so unbelievably thoughtful. You found out that Ryan was giving birth soon and you really wanted to see her. We went to see Ryan on the day that you stayed over with Grandma and Grandpa so you couldn’t go. You didn’t show any disappointment but you replaced it with determination to make something for Ryan. You didn’t even tell me what you were working on and you […]
