For dessert, Ms. Chloe baked red velvet cookies.
When it was done, she parked herself with her book and she was in her own world.
Shane also joined in. So proud of him for reading a lot these days too. He’s gotten into reading Rick Riordan’s The Heroes of Olympus Series and really enjoying it.
A perfect afternoon.
I love Poke and it’s so easy to make it at home.
I used wild yellowfin tuna steak and yellowtail and marinated it with soy sauce, sesame oil and honey. Throw in some seaweed salad, scallions and cucumbers over rice and that’s pretty much it. 
We’re enjoying being at home today just hanging out..making mess in the basement. 🙂 We’ve been getting over jet leg and transitioning to our regular routine this week since the vacation has been rough. Yesterday was still busy with kids sports/activities, a birthday party, errands, etc and today Andrew’s leaving for a business trip for a few days so we’re just chilling at home after church. 
Chloe’s little spa nook. 
Before Andrew left, they played ping pong in the basement. Andrew striking a pose for the camera…lol.
Our walls are so bare…You can see I don’t really spend much time here. Nothing’s hung on the walls in the basement.
We walked into the shop because of its cool name!
RYU stands for “Respect Your Universe”. Cool.
We strolled around Robson street before heading back to our hotel. What a day.
We stopped by the village once last time to ice skate and have early dinner before heading back to Vancouver.
Fried pickle.
We’ll miss you ~~
Where else but in Whistler could you have performers entertain you with an electric mix of music, dance and spinning fire? 
After a few morning runs, we got on the Peak 2 Peak gondola ride to Blackcomb mountain to have lunch at Christine’s.
Fabulous view, creative and deliciously prepared food & excellent service on top of the mountain! I could have stayed here for all day.
My first Bloody Caesar. 
Time to relax, cozy up by the fire after a hard day of skiing. 🙂
Shane finds my ear muffs very nice and warm. So cute.
Dinner at Basalt. 
Dessert at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.
For the next three days we’re skiing/snowboarding together with kids.
Magnificent views…all around us.
Wife, Mother, jewelry designer &
graphic designer /Creative Director, I am HaeWon Cadence Ryu. This is a glimpse into my life’s blessings, passion and inspiration.
This blog came to fruition after I began motherhood; I wanted to be able to capture every millestone of my two beautiful children - Chloe & Shane as they journey through their early years. Since the launch of my online jewelry site, cadencelee.com, I’ve come face-to-face with having to juggle multiple roles. As a result, I have decided to feature some of my designs and inspiration alongside postings of my precious family. For me, this is the perfect medium of work-life balance.
