Twins turning 30!

 This weekend we went to Las Vegas for an early 30th birthday celebration for Wyatt and Scott.

This is a play-by-play of the weekend. 

*Disclaimer:  Some pictures may not be sharp, may be fuzzy, or just odd.  Please just take note that we were in Las Vegas and at least we tried to document it.  However, the positive is that I am releasing the majority of the photos we took, to realistically portray the celebration.*

Not only did we celebrate Wyatt and Scott's 30th birthday, but we also celebrated our friend, Luke's 30th as well.  We had dinner at Bobby Flay's restaurant, Mesa Grill at Caesar's Palace.

With Alex (Luke's brother-in-law) at Mesa Grill.

One of the birthday boys before dinner.


The other birthday boy, Luke, with his wife, Claudia.  We love these two!

Wyatt's birthday dessert...Mmmm....


Not exactly sure what happened here.

Take II.  This is MUCH better.


Let the fun begin!  The following photos may or may not have captions.  This is probably because I feel that there are no words to describe the moment(s).  I will say, however, that the following photos illustrate only the part of the night where we were waiting in line.


















After waiting in line for a club, and both Wyatt and Scott winning some money from slot machines, we decided to leave...

(This is Scott.)


Yes, folks...with a little help of "liquid courage", the birthday boys took the stage. Those are their Filipino backup dancers. :)



Unfortunately, one of the birthday boys fell asleep in the middle of karaoke-ing.  So, we all took the opportunity to take pics with him...

That's what you get for falling asleep!

Even DJ Sally wanted to get a picture!  The boys were pretty famous in the karaoke bar.

After so much singing the night before, we all required some R&R at the pool on Saturday.




Saturday night...
Money, money, money...


Two Asians and Twins.


Cake time before we hit the clubs.  Thank you, Juan for ordering a gorgeous and yummy cake!






Special birthday dance for Scott.



A mini dance session before the clubs.


Another dance for Scottie.  (Thanks, Rosanna!)

Cab ride.  Everyone "Asian" it!  (Obviously Justin and I were the only ones who received the memo.)


"Asian" it- Take II.  (Still only me and Justin.) 

"Asian" it- Take III. Yes, Rosanna!  Still unsure why Scott's eyes are so big.

"Asian" it- Take IV.  Sorry, my bad. 

P-A-L-M-S.
Again, I apologize for the following photos that may not have turned out correctly.  I tried.




I actually think I was supposed to be a part of this picture, but only caught Wyatt.

There I am!

Justin is way too tall!  I think I cut off his head in half my photos!





There's the other birthday boy, Luke!  CHEERS!

No, folks.  That is not Megan!  That's Christina!

Missy is so good.  She knew I was taking a picture of random people and she got in it. :)








Why are people's heads cut off?  Not sure.  I thought they were centered.




Another special dance.


Uuuuh...



Don't mind the man in the back.

And so the weekend ended. This was Sunday morning before heading back to L.A.  Sunglasses were not optional...even inside.


Bye, bye, Vegas.  You've been good to us as always...

Twins' 30th birthday in Vegas = SUCCESS.

God Bless,
Kat

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

A Kinder Grad

Kindergarten can really take a toll on the parents.  (Yes, I meant to say parents.)  I knew we were in for a lot of activities and volunteering, but I did NOT know that it would become a second job to be an involved school parent.  I was told that by volunteering and being involved, it would give your kids (and their classmates) all the benefits.  At a private school (especially a Catholic private school), if there aren’t any volunteers, there aren’t many activities.  So ultimately, I knew I had to participate.  Could I have cut down on the activities I chaired or took part in?  Sure.  Why didn’t I?  [Insert long sigh here.]  Because in the end, I realized that I wasn’t sending my child to a private school because it was better than the public schools in the area.  (We actually have great public schools in our district.)  I was sending my child to a private Catholic school so she could learn about her faith.  The most imp...

9 years later...

This is the story of a dentist-in-waiting-nomad, Angela (a.k.a. my sister, "Ate"-[for those who don't speak Filipino, pronounced "a-teh"]) and a basketball playing of an engineer. Freshman year: boy sees girl and never speaks to her. Senior year: boy befriends girl's sister and gets his chance. A winter formal came along. Boy asked. Girl accepted. Boy meets girl's brothers (eek!), mom, and dad (EEK!). They danced. Girl moves to San Francisco, then San Jose. Boy moves to San Jose. Boy moves back to Valencia. Girl stays in San Jose. This summer, girl will move back to Valencia. Soon, boy and girl will finally be getting married! 9 years later! I have yet to express how excited I am that my sister and Louie are finally getting married. (Not that they needed to tie the knot to officially make Louie a part of our family.) For nine years, Louie has become another big brother to me and an Uncle "Looouuuwweeeee" to my nieces- always willing to d...
