w/ Linda, Anne, Tasha, Rima & Mai

(Looks like I am but I was not holding that bottle, my students might see this )

At Hindy's 10th anniversary

Fun times with my girl friends.

Merry making time!

Blood is thicker

w/ my cousin Leah, cousin Francis w/ wife Kris

w/ Tita Minda & Tito Lino at Francis' place

after dinner at Izakaya Wasa went to Cheesecake Factory with my cousins

So after my brunch with Joey and family

my second cousin, Francis, and his wife, Kris, picked me up

He's a graphic artist and does photography

so we're on the same page when it comes to artistic rendezvous

Told him wanted to go to the Getty or MOCA or LACMA museums

but with time constraints and heavy traffic

they brought me instead to Mission San Juan Capistrano

LOVELY!

Too bad all photos are in his camera

since, uhmm, yeah, he does photography

Afterwhich, went to Spectrum to meet up with cousin Leah

We had such a good time laughing, teasing, chatting

They find me sooo funny!
Haha, I love it that they laugh at all my jokes and remarks

kinda like canned laughter, haha

Really sweet time with my relatives

then Francis' parents came over to his place

to see me

I enjoyed Francis & Kris' place

very artistic

wouldn't expect less from a graphic artist & his wife

Thanks for giving me my best restful sleep in the States

See you soon!

Montage with Joey

luxury hotel , Montage, with Joey

Monday, Dec 6

w/ Joey

by Joey's deck, Laguna Beach

Remember Joey from my post months ago?

Well, it's my turn to visit her

was nice seeing her cute kids

Though we had limited time as I have another appointment

Was great to see how she's doing

Happy Monday!

Sophie's room

the sweetest room

This trip, I demanded a tour of my friend's homes

Usually, they'll pick me up and take me out to eat

But this time, I demanded I wanted to see their homes

First stop is the lovely Cape Cod inspired home of Brandie & Roy

So cozy

and of course with a lovely view of the beach

Took shots of their daughter's room

Cutest girl's room

So sweet and delicate

Am sure the little girl feels like a princess in this room

Just an outward indication of the lovely family they have
Thanks for sharing!
