Hello Mr. Mini Andrew

Happy birthday Dad!!!

This runs in the family

Desserts…so good…plate licking good.

We came out to pier 81 in NYC where we’re going to board on a dinner cruise to have a celebratory dinner sailing on the Hudson river.

Playtime with grandpa afterwards.

Kids and I are taking “Drawing with iPad” workshop today at a local Apple store.

I drew Shane and

my mom,

Shane drew a robot,

Chloe drew a willow tree and nature. 🙂

Every morning when I leave for work, chloe runs down the driveway following my car behind to say bye.

Shane’s camp-free today so he came to work with me. His Warlock drawing.

My mom, Chloe and I went to the city this afternoon for some furniture shopping and dinner on this hot steamy summer day.

We had dinner at Republic, one of our favorite noodle place. 

Then we went to Eataly for yummy gelato and bought some bread and fresh pasta noodles to bring home. Along the way, we made a quick stop at its Wine and Cheese bar which was so delicious and perfect end to our day.

Swim is going well, kids are learning to dive.

Shane did one week of chess which he enjoyed a lot.

They are also in an Apple camp, making interactive storytelling books.

I don’t know how this happened… I thought we were going to have a nice relaxed boring summer and I just signed up for a few things here and there… Apparently I didn’t really plan it well..or think everything through. Obviously…
I’m running around busier than ever during this summer break than during school season. Yeesh.

I’m driving the kids before, during and after work for these activities and I have my parents driving them (thank you!) as well as arranging for car pools with other moms.

Actually it is pretty nice and relaxing for kids and they are having so much fun. Andrew is having fun too since he gets to golf more.

A close friend of mine from church is moving to the west coast next week so we’re back at the Lont’s again for the Chung family’s farewell party. 🙁

Korean food!

Here it is again. The dab !
