My little brother is now 32! To celebrate his birthday, we went out for a family dinner at Arirang in Parlin. My cousin David came, too! Above, Len holds up a Sumo-wrestler mug (straw hole in the front... too funny).

I do not think taking pictures of the kids as they catch zucchini in their mouths will ever get old.
Above, Ollie. Below, T (see the green streak?)

We somehow ordered fried rice, which added a whole new dimension to the hibachi show. The guy first created a snowman, then turned it into Lady Gaga, and then into a heart shape. He shimmied his spatula under the rice just-so, and created a talking mouth, into which he put eggs. For some reason, I found this hysterical. Should have gotten a video of that, but was too busy laughing.
Best part of the night was when they banged the gong, started the fancy-light show, and came out and sang Happy Birthday. The guy held up Len's arms, sang with his Japanese-accent, and put an ice cream cake down in front of him.


Len has threatened to somehow repay me on my birthday. Hahahahahaahah....
With full bellies and some leftovers, we capped off the end of a nice weekend.
Below, Jim shows off the bow tie he was wearing. Before this, we took the kids to MU to see a production of "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day". They love the book and we enjoyed the play. ("But there were no songs in the book, Mom." -- T)
Earlier in the day, as I was straightening up the house, I realized that it was pretty darn quiet.

Some boys just love to read.

Find a great spot, and make it your own.
Trenton is very interested in reading graphic novels, while Oliver thoroughly enjoys "Henry and Mudge".
"Eating the rainbow" for lunch.
