For Natalie’s Spring Break, we invited Po Po and Gong Gong to San Jose to watch Natalie for the week. Toward the end of the week, we decided to go to Tahoe for the weekend since we’ve never been there and Natalie has been asking to see snow. It quickly became a big group trip adding in Big Uncle, Yee Po and family, Theresa, Uncle J and Tul, and a great auntie from Macau!

The house we rented was really nice! There were 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Natalie especially like the room with the bunk-beds.

At the top of the mountain, there was a spectacular view of Lake Tahoe

Also at the top of the mountain was food. As soon as we got up there, Tyler said he was hungry. So David went to buy him a hot dog. It was the most expensive hot dog (plain too!) we ever got. $10!

That afternoon we also drove over to the lake and everyone took a walk on the pier.

The kids had alot of fun playing in the snow

80+ degree weather is something we’ve been missing here. Finally we got some of that this weekend. Today we joined Uncle Chubber and Theresa on their Yelp adventure and checked out a place called Cafe San Jose. It was pretty good! We got to sit outside too, which was perfect with the sunny weather!

The kids shared some silver dollar pancakes

I got the spinach omelette. It was delicious!

Last night, Tyler was watching TV with me in my bed. During a commercial break, I rolled over and said to him “Let’s talk about how much we love each other.” He rolled over and faced me and said “ok!”

Tyler: I love you for one hundred thousand million days!

Me: I love you for one hundred thousand million gazillion gazillion gazillion days!

Tyler: Wow!

Then he rolls over and proceeds to pick his nose.

By the next commercial break, he was snoring.

I haven’t been feeling well and today while I was in bed resting, I asked Tyler to come take care of me. He said ok and sat next to me in my bed. I told him that hugs and kisses would make me feel better. So he would give them to me any time I asked. After a few minutes, he thought I fell asleep so he snuck away.

We had a a fun and quick weekend in LA last weekend. It was nice and warm in LA which was a nice break from the cold and rainy weather we’ve been having in San Jose.

Natalie had fun holding Kaiya. Little Kaiya.

We brought Po Po to Yogurtland.

The kids got to get ice cream from the ice cream truck.

At night, after eating dinner in San Gabriel, Uncle Way and Natalie picked up a cake for Po Po and we sang to her at home. Each of the kids took turns blowing out the candle so we had to sing 3 times.

A couple week’s back, I took the kids to Ben & Jerry’s for free cone day. Uncle Chubber came with us too!

Waiting in line. We waited about 20 minutes.

The line

Yummy ice cream. Both kids got mint-chocolate_chip. I got coffee. Uncle Chubber got ‘Imagine Whirled Peace’ which consisted of chocolate fudge peace signs, toffee cookie dough, and swirls of caramel vanilla ice cream. It’s named in honor of John Lennon.

Tyler ate his ice cream quickly, then finished the rest of mine, and then tried to have some of Natalie’s, but was unsuccessful in getting any of hers.
