Isla in San Mateo!

We finally had Nara and Tracy over for brunch at our place. It was their daughter Isla's first time in San Mateo. After a harrowing entry into the world, Isla is now doing great!!!

Chinese New Years at College Park

Spencer and all of his classmates got dressed up in traditional Chinese outfits for the Chinese New Years celebration at his school. The morning started with an assembly in the gym that included lion dances and martial arts demonstrations, followed by a parade around the school. The morning wrapped up with an amusing attempt to take a class photo. :)

Astrid and Thad

Long overdue for a get-together with our old college buddy, Astrid and her husband, Thad, we finally had them over to dinner along with their two kids, Linnea and Eli. Great conversations and fun interactions between the kids made for a great evening.

Mamie's Visit

Mamie surprised us with an impromptu visit from Taiwan while she was up in Marin taking some dance classes. We met up with her at Greens for a tasty vegetarian lunch, right on the Bay.


Always fun catching up with an old friend. To top it all off, it was a beautiful day to be outside, and we even caught an exciting sailing race taking place right outside the restaurant. Gotta love San Francisco!
