July 4th Weekend

(K has changed so much since last year!)

We had a great July 4th weekend with the whole Lim Clan! Uncle D, Auntie L and Cousin K drove 800+miles round trip to Sac from LA. Grandpa and Grandma drove from Napa. With the HIGH gas prices, we can't be more appreciative of you driving so far away!! We are very happy to see everyone before our big move to London!

Our family and Uncle K's friends had a traditional July 4th BBQ party. The weather was so cool this year that the kids didn't get to swim in the pool. However, the cool weather was perfect for our BBQ. We almost died from the heat last July 4th when we did a BBQ.

We had 4 kids in the house and (I think) they had a blast playing with each other! Di-di hasn't had a play date since early 2007, so I am counting this one as a play date. :) We also hung out by the river on Saturday morning. Grandapa, Grandma and Uncle K all taught Di-di some of their best golf moves.
A Chinese family get-together isn't complete without some good food:
Friday dinner, we had Italian cuisine at Bucca di Beppo.
Saturday lunch, we tried Vietnamese cuisine Lemon Grass Noodle Bar (The cheaper version of Lemon Grass Restaurant).
Saturday Dinner, we had Japanese at our favorite Japanese restaurant Taro's.

Uncle K, Auntie L and Cousin K are serious foodies, so we hope they enjoyed the food in Sac!


(K is an all-American girl!)

(Grandpa is our Iron Chef. Di-di to Auntie M: please don't stop me from touching the grill! :)


(I really wanted to keep Baby B, but his mommy and daddy were probably watching me like hawks!LOL)



(Grandpa does need to work harder to impress K, but he got her to smile for this picture!!:)
