FATHER'S DAY 2008


Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there, especially the first time daddies!  

We spent a crazy 24 hour turnaround to Fresno and back. Hot weather, no running water, and two smelly dogs throwing up. What fun!  Since I was actually home for once on Father's Day, we went to the cemetery this morning. After a stop at Trader Joe's for flowers, we took Daniel to visit his grandpa's grave site. Although Dad has been gone for almost 14 years, I still miss him very much ... and his sense of humor. Daniel helped fill the vase and did the traditional three bows of respect. He also left a few things behind (helped "watered" a tree nearby, BOYS!), and thought it would be nice for his Indiana Jones and Professor Jones lego people to have a photo opt next to grandpa's picture.  We also stopped by great grandma (PoPo's mom), uncle Ray and his wife, and the other great grandma's  site.

Last night, after a grueling trip up to Fresno, we had dinner and a nice visit with baby Zach and his papi and daddy. What a good natured 5 month old! Daniel got an added bonus, more Indiana Jones Legos! (Just what a kid who loses little Indiana Jones people needs).  We hope to visit baby Zach again and maybe convince him to visit us and go to Disneyland someday too!

A visit with new papi Geoff!
And new daddy Clark too!
How cute am I... really!

No baby was hurt to make this video... honest!

Aw! I'm so proud of Daniel and the effort he made with his popo to speak Chinese. Wow! That's amazing.

I'm seriously eating so many nectarines. I should be worried. Is there any symptoms from eating too many nectarines? You'd know, right?
