Memorial Day Weekend – Part 2

IMG_7233On Sunday morning, I took the parents out for breakfast.  We almost lost KK’s sweatshirt there but someone ended up finding it and we were able to get it back by the afternoon.

IMG_5702We later went to church but it was cut short when Jes’ mom came in to retrieve us so that we could meet up with his dad between meetings.

IMG_5710In the afternoon, Jes and I went to Dayantha’s house to visit them and to meet Oliver.  He’s almost 7 months old and so adorable.

IMG_5712I realized we hadn’t seen them since last year’s Hawaii trip for Yoon’s wedding.  Krissy was in the very early part of her pregnancy then and hadn’t told anyone yet.IMG_5726It was nice being able to catch up with them finally.

For dinner, we met up with Pish and his family for our usual Thai feast at the usual place.  Marie and her family were in San Diego this weekend so it was a smaller group this time around.

Unfortunately KK slept right though dinner and missed out on the good food.IMG_5737

Before heading back to the Magical House, we went to Creamistry for some ice cream made with liquid nitrogen.  Alice loves playing in the steam.IMG_5743We all shared a little scoop of Cinnamon Crunch ice cream.  It was yummy in its own right but made me miss Secret Breakfast.

IMG_5798On Monday morning, it was time to pack up and drive back to SF.  The drive was long and challenging because of all the congestion on the interstate.  There were times where the traffic would go from 70 mph to 0 in just a couple seconds.  Scary.  It’s nice to be home after such a long drive but I already miss my family.

Memorial Day Weekend – Part 1

IMG_5572I was supposed to work on Monday but one of my co-workers was kind enough to work for me.  So, we jumped at the opportunity to drive down to Cerritos for a long weekend.  We hadn’t been home since Christmas!!  On Friday after dinner, we drove down and arrived at the Magical House by 2:30am.  A long drive would not be complete without a stop at Del Taco when we got there.  After 6.5 hours, a red burrito never tasted so good.

On Saturday morning, we were up pretty early and Brother came over with the family.  They took KK to Disneyland for the morning and I got to hang out in my pjs for a few hours.  IMG_5611Since Jes was still sleeping and my mom was taking a nap, I decided to treat myself to a pedicure before lunch.  The lady I had this time was really good and I got a nice foot/leg massage.  Aaaah.

IMG_7145The family sent me photos throughout the morning and it looked like KK was having a great time.  They got her in for free with and I saved $93!!  Sweet.

IMG_7174For lunch, we went to Anaheim Packing House.  I had never been and it was pretty cool.  It’s like a hipster food court that serves alcohol and has entertainment.  IMG_5696Here’s a cocktail that Jes got.  Smelled so good…

IMG_5619I ordered a porchetta sandwich from one place and pho from another place.  Meanwhile, Jes got Indian food.

IMG_4035For dessert, there was ice cream for everyone.  It was perfect because the weather was pretty warm and muggy outside.  IMG_4041 Look at these two kids with their ice cream cones!  So funny.

IMG_5675For dinner, we drove up to Pasadena to celebrate Hannah’s graduation from Biola.  We went to a cool little ice cream shop called Cookies and Cream after dinner.  We ordered lychee passionfruit with a lemon cookie for KK and Thai tea for me.

IMG_5672Here are all the flavors they offered.  IMG_5673They let us sample whatever we wanted, including the cookies.
