Hooray for Visitors

We were lucky to have my mom and two of my aunts from Korea come and visit us for a week. We started the week by going to Korean BBQ to celebrate Mother's Day. It was so yummy!

Grandma and Paige. Paige LOVED my mom from the first day she was here even though it had been a little while since she had seen her.

My mom with her two sisters. Can you see the resemblance?

Paul loves Korean BBQ and eats it by stabbing the meat with one chopstick.

We spent the next full day at Disneyland.

We spent the next couple of days in Vegas. We tried to do a Grand Canyon Air Tour but the flight was cancelled due to bad weather :( We still had fun touring Vegas.

When we got back to California we took a day trip to the Griffith Observatory. If you haven't been up there, you have to go see the great views of Los Angeles and the Hollywood Sign.

The last day they were here, we took a trip to Santa Monica Beach with some friends.

For Memorial Day Weekend, Paul's youngest sister and husband came for a visit. We spent the first day at Disneyland. They were nice enough to take us to the exclusive Club 33. We have been wanting to check it out for years and we finally got to go. The food was delicious and we had a great time. The Club also gave us passes for Space Mountain and The Matterhorn which was awesome. This trip to Disneyland was especially memorable because Little Paul got to go on Space Mountain for the first time! He is finally tall enough (barely). They measured him for about ten minutes because someone (mom) told him to stand on his tippy toes when they measured him. It was cute.

We loved spending time with you and Ben too especially since that time these days is pretty rare. I'm glad we got to do a couple of our favorite things with you. Thanks again for taking us to Club 33!

I'm glad you are living it up before you leave California. I can't believe how big Paige is!! She just gets cuter and cuter. And of course Little Paul is so handsome. It is too cute how much fun he has with Melania. Miss you!
