I guess when you got lots of little kids they are bound to get restless through a thirteen course dinner.

More from our time in NY. Note: E1 was probably the leader of the pack…

Visited relatives up in NY this weekend.

Fun vacation:

This is E2 and my duet version of Silent Night. I’ll try to get it in HD next time.

How can I be mad at my daughter who is so cute?

The next morning, mommy found her in our bedroom with an open jar of nail polish… I guess it was our fault for leaving it within her reach…

nail polish and kids do not mix

Warning: Kids and nail polish do not mix… especially if they are not being supervised…

We’re well into summer. Pools are open and the girls have continued their interest in swimming. More and more time at home since it is really hot. We’ve visited the Library a few times, but due to budget cuts, their hours are pretty short… 1-9 one days and 10-6 other days. At least they’re open eight hours a day. Favorite activities include drawing/coloring with markers and crayons. Art time with playdoh. Watching movies especially animated flicks.

We’ve seen some old friends and hoping to see more this summer. We have a trip planned for NY later in July and a trip to Philly in September. Both for wedding stuffs.

Congrats to my younger brother for finding his wife. Treasure the time together.

Congrats to our friends in Switzerland for their new baby boy, having children is a great adventure.

Church is in full swing. We’ve been teaching the High Schoolers for the past year and our little ones have been attending the pre-school classes. We are off this week for the summer retreat. We decided not to go this year, perhaps have a little retreat of our own. Pray for our pastor’s family as his mom just passed away. May God’s comfort be on them.

Stay safe and cool this summer. Blessings!

An interesting talk about reforming the education system. Looking at an industrial model vs. an agricultural model. Fast food model vs. customized model… How can we “fix” the education system? I think we need a little of both, depending on what one wants to study.

Seems like this summer has been filled with lots of swimming and singing… This is our rendition of Taylor Swift’s you belong with me… Enjoy!

As seen on TV. My wife alerted me to the Drain Claw on night about removing hair from clogged drains. But as usual I didn’t quite hear what she said so I ended up buying the Turbo Snake off of Amazon.

Turbo Snake – Original – Buy One Set Get One Free! – As Seen on TV

We got the buy one get one free set. Each package came with one sink and one tub/shower Turbo Snake. The sink one was thinner/smaller head and the shower snake had a bigger head.

Well, here’s a video of what we did. My wife has long thick black hair. So naturally a lot of it gets into the drain. We tested it. I’d say it did a lot of work, but for the price I paid, I expected it to last longer than it did. The grabber part (made of velcro) came off too easily and without it cannot grab any hair. So even though it says it is reusable, it lasted about 10 minutes of use and then we were through. THere’s probably more hair down there, but for now we won’t know.

Up next is Drain Claw.

Here’s the video for Turbo Snake

This from Mars Hill Church, Pastor Mark Driscoll

Spent Saturday at friend Jackee’s place where her dad cooked up an awesome meal.

Friday was Laser Tag and Sunday was church and then lunch with folks… now the kiddies are taking a much needed nap.
