This year we’re back at the Wei’s house celebrating thanksgiving with them!
Andrew’s helping with mashing potatoes. Maybe he’ll find his interest in cooking again…
Kids helped me make this herbed cheese dish.
My contribution to the feast, roasted butternut squash salad with warm cider vinaigrette
Mikaela definitely outgrew the turkey this year!
We’re so thankful for your friendship! Thank you for the wonderful feast!!
We’re playing Dr. Feel-einstein game. Kids have to put their hands in each numbered bag and guess which part of body parts they are feeling.
In the bags were:
The facial expressions were priceless!
Then, make Mummies : This is about to get really messy…
Kids decorated their own candy apples.
Chloe’s apple
I had so much fun thanks to all the parents who helped me entertain my little sugar filled guests. This was the best way to celebrate Halloween…with sweets and sweet friends. Happy Halloween!
Ready to go get some candy?
Yeah!
Our first trick-or-treaters! Our very own babysitter and his friends!
That’s it for the trick-or-treaters that came to our house. We’re now off but left a candy basket just in case.
Look who came to visit! Chloe’s babysitter as a baby. Cute. 🙂
Just down the street from us, they block off the road and all of the town kids come here to trick-or-treat. Awesome. We don’t even have to drive.
Kids met most of their friends from school!
Chloe’s inseparable bff.
Couple of houses even opened up their backyards for neighbors and had a block dance party. SO COOL.
When I got to my kids school field for the Halloween parade, there were middle school student marching band playing music. So cool!
Here comes second graders!
Chloe is a cha cha dancer!
There were some really cool costumes.
I can see her miles away.
Now the kindergarteners
I drove to their school FIVE times today, between the kids drop off, snack drop off & 2 parades! Glad the parade was worth it though. 🙂
Today was the last official soccer game of the season and Chloe broke out of her shell! She was on defense and managed to steal the ball and kick it away. What.
She’s been so timid about kicking the ball and had kind of a nonchalant attitude towards the games this whole season…which was fine. It’s her first time and I loved seeing her enjoy just being out with her friends on the field and we also loved Saturdays mornings as a family and seeing the kids play.
This morning it was freezing cold and raining but again the girls played a really good game. And when Chloe kicked that ball, everyone including the players and all the parents shouted her name and cheered for her. It was one of the moments that I will always remember. I was so proud of her and also really appreciated all the encouragements and support. We had great coaches and awesome team members. Go Blue Bombers! You were unbeatable!
Look at her in action!
I’ve been look forward to this event all year. I get to hang out with my awesome friend, sampling unlimited amount of oysters while listening to a fabulous polka cover band. AND we got to meetTyler Florence!
Andrew and I are going to AWCF Gala tonight…and we’re about to get photobombed.
We were so honored to be a part of this wonderful event.
Chloe went to her friends “rock climbing” birthday party 
Fun times. 🙂
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.
