Thanksgiving Family Fun

Sat Thanksgiving dinner with Mama's family. Uncle Hibbs made prime rib & yorkshire pudding - yum!

We helped put the marshmellows on the yams. We even got to snack on some for being such great helpers.

Silly dada and Uncle Hibbs borrowing our bikes. Please don't breat it!

Enjoying our Peet's hot chocolate with PoPo and GongGong while we were waiting for our prime rib to cook.

Thur Thanksgiving lunch - live crab and shrimp!

No plates or forks allowed. Just our bare hands on the juicy meat!

Wed - Auntie Emi & Uncle Roo's surprise engagement dinner! Auntie Emi still has her permanant smile on her face, esp when she looks at this shiny thing on her finger. We get to be ring bearers!

Thanksgivng celebration at school. We made pilgram vest, hat and drum. We sang songs of thanksgiving and had a snack feast together. We have so much to be thankful for.

Fun playtime with our "girl" friends

Cayden thanks for coming over to play with me while my big bro was at school.

Showing uncle Alby (Dada's college roomie/groomsman) all my Power Miner Lego sets. Thanks for playing with us!

Jamba Juice Field Trip

Our November field trip was to our neighborhood Jamba Juice. We got to go behind the scenes to see how they make smoothies. We even got to walk into a freezer. Since this one is close by, Ethan got to tag along too. For Dec, we're off to Christmas in the Park in downtown San Jose.

I was off school on Wed for Veteren's Day so I went to my alma mater (Google Preschool) to visit my friends and teachers. They had so many questions for me about kindergarten.

Playdate with Cayden and Lucas at their house this time. Always so much fun with the Tans.

Girls nite out at San Pedro Square in downtown SJ with college buddies. Mama's craving to go back already.

Our daily 7:30am family breakfast before school. On Friday, Dada made me a sunnyside up egg. A bit messy but so yummy. Thanks Dada, you CAN cook!

The "Girls" table at the annual SCU Thanksgiving dinner. This year was adults only so we hung out with Po-Po and Gong-Gong (Mama's parents) instead. We had a blast with them and Mama and Dada really enjoyed catching up with their college friends.

The "kids" table. Dada enjoyed bonding with the boys.

This week at church we packed shoeboxes of goodies to show God's love for kids around the world who don't have that many toys. We packed them toys, candy, toothbrush, toothpaste, crayons etc. I packed one for a girl my age and Doa Doa packed one for a 7 year old boy. Hope they like what we packed for them. This is our 3rd annual Operation Christmas Child project.

Writing a special note for our recipient to let them know how much God loves them.

Bye Bye Training Wheels

After taking off my training wheels last month I've been discouraged to ride my bike. But today I finally learned how! Check out my video below.

Mama and Dada were so proud of me, they prepared my favorites for dinner to celebrate my new biking skills! Anyone want to go biking with me?

Grandma has volunteered to come down from SF to help take care of us 1 day a week. Our first project was making brownies ... how'd she know I love to bake sweets? Thanks Grandma!

Weekly lunch with Goa Goa's kinder class. Mama volunteers to be on lunch duty and I get to eat with Jessica ;-)

Strolling home after dropping Goa Goa off at school.

On Sat, we had a class playdate at the local playground. More than half the class came out to play. 2 hour recess on a weekend - so much fun! Our parents had a great time too - think we'll be doing this every month.



Watch me go on only 2 wheels. Right after this, I got to go pick out a lego set my parents promised.

"Louie" Story

Happy Halloween from Mr & Mrs Potato Head, Woody & Buzz.

Woody and Buzz sure had a full filled Halloween ... Google party, classroom festivities, neighborhood parade, birthday costume party, baking sweets, trick or treating ...

Dada came to do his monthly reading to our class. This week he read to us about playing nicely.

Church small group neighbors enjoying the spooky treat at the community party. We came in 2nd place for best family costume.

Kinder class pic. What a scary bunch!

Woody is ready for the school parade.

Jessica (birthday girl, classmate and neighbor) had a clown come make us laugh so hard.

We made "monkey bread" cupcakes. So yummy!

Cayden - thanks for my be-lated b-day gift! Thanks so always coming over to play with me!

2nd class field trip - nature walk to Ulistac by our school.

Appetizer cook-off ... 8 of them made an appetizer dish. Dada mada a yummy one with prosciutto ham, basil and carrots. Very simple and tasty.
