A Simple Saturday

We took a break from the crazy busy shopping crowds that were EVERYWHERE today and headed to the movies. "This Is It", the movie about the Michael Jackson concert was really good! It kept us entertained and inspired Tyler to try a little Thriller moves afterward. I wish I had caught it on film! Before the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks were there (well statues of them) and the boys thought they should strike a pose. Aidan lost his nerve once people started walking into the theater but his brother had no cares! After the movie we grabbed a quick bite at a cute little patisserie and then headed for home.

do you see someone peeking?

Dad's Little Helper

Our sink is leaking. Great.

Han is pretty handy and went to work on fixing it right away. Lucky for him, Ty-Ty is also pretty handy, or likes to get his hands into whatever is going on at least. He was "assisting" and doing a good job at it.

Flashlight? Check!
Screwdriver? Check!
Nuts, bolts, hoses, and lots of other things to hand over? Check!

All that's missing is his plumber's crack (Tyler's not Han's, thank you very much).

Lucky 7

We celebrated Aidan's 7th birthday with a small party here at home. He invited friends from school and they partied the afternoon away! The theme was GI Joe, and Sergeant Han was in full combat gear. We feel so blessed to have Aidan as our son. He is growing up to be a such a kind, caring, and intelligent young boy. Time flies too fast!

Happy birthday to you, our handsome boy. We love you more than you'll ever know!

The End of Another Soccer Season

Aidan played another year of FC Fremont soccer. It was set up differently this year, they called it Academy instead of teams. Apparently this is the way the Europeans play. All in all, Aidan had fun. His coach was awesome and he made some new friends. At the closing ceremonies, the coaches presented their players with ribbons and high-fives.

Halloween Fun

We celebrated another Halloween with the Kwons, McDs and Stewarts. We enjoy meandering the quiet streets of San Ramon where the kids can run from house to house and we adults can mosey along behind them. Uncle Gene went all out and even decorated his house to look haunted, complete with scary noises, fog, and ugly monsters! It was spooky fun!

Snake Eyes and a zombie trick or treat

Halloween is over, can we say candy high?

Pumpkin Patch Fun

We took a field trip to Half Moon Bay today. We needed to get our pumpkins and decided to go to the best place on earth! Headed out bright and early and made our way to Lemo's and Pastorino's Farm. The Kwons met us up there and the kids were knee deep in "punkins", sweets, and tons of fun!

That's a pretty big punkin Ty!

Makena and her Samchun

According to Aidan that was DELICIOUS pumpkin pie!

the boyfriends, oops - I meant best friends

Kylee making the most adorable growling sounds I've ever heard!

load 'em up and move 'em out!

Tyler's First Picture Day

Tyler is enjoying preschool very much despite the fact he doesn't want to take naps, I mean he naps everyday without fail, but he likes to protest it over and over. Today, was picture day, his first picture day. I asked what he'd like to wear, because he is VERY particular. He had decided many days prior that he would be wearing his blazer and a tie. He stuck to his original wardrobe decision... I love his eye for fashion!

I love this heart melting smile!
