Soph's Family Reunion Dinner & Caleb's Trojans Playoff game!!!




Caleb Hits!

This past weekend was very special and memorable. Our family hasn't gathered in one room (or field) for several years, with all members present! We were all here cheering on Caleb's team Trojans verses San Diego State!

Mom and daughters!

So it was very wonderful to have everyone here, especially big brother Daniel who flew all the way over here from Wichita, Kansas to celebrate Mother's Day with us!


Little bro went to Taiwan to study and hang out with dad for 2 years, and moved back in February to live and work here permanently! So I'm very excited about that!



Sis has started working in Feburary too, after staying at home w/little Kyle for 2.5 years. She's busy but doing well! Thanks to bro-in-law Bruce for caring for Kyle 'while she relaunches her career again!

Hmmm....Interesting way to bond?


We all met at Cox Sports park, the baseball park next to our house. We cheered like the spectator parents on TV, and shouted until we lost our voice. Big bro says, "I'm a Bruin (undergrad), but I screamed until I lost my voice!" Sis Debbie is truly a Trojan (grad), so she cheered without reservation. Hubby and I, well, we graduated from SD (undergrad), but we betrayed our collegiate team in order to cheer our son on. GO 'SC!!!!

Hubby made his super premium Ribeye steaks using cast iron and special S&P recipe, and we devoured all of them! Mom brought curry and special crispy center sponge cake from "expensive lady" chinese bakery in Rowland Heights. We all had a blast eating and playing with the kids afterwards.

Hubby steak!



Cake!

We treasure this time we have together and though we are not together all the time, we know that God is watching over each of us. The Lord bless you, dear family, and be with you in all you do!

Caleb is an amazing baseball player, I just about lost my voice for the Trojans and I am a Bruin! I am so proud of Sophie's dedication to be a weekly baseball mom and Mark's amazing hospitality, what a gift! I pray the joy of the Lord to breakout and completely overfill both Abigail and Caleb.

Sophie, Sophie ... You have a way of making people very happy. Grandpa Lynn and I were overjoyed to see the pictures of your family reunion. Thank you - thank you. I just HAD to write to your mom and tell her what it meant to us to be remembered. How wonderful it must have been for you kids to all be together with Mom - eating, laughing and playing together. So great for your kids, too. Memories flooded our minds of the early days when you first came to the States. We had not seen a picture of Debbie in a long time. What a pretty lady she is now. And Dr. Daniel - isn't he the handsome dentist! Does he still play his violin? We were interested that Steven spent two years with his Dad but had returned to permanently stay here.

Take care, you special one, and keep following in Jesus' footsteps. How grateful we are that you found your Mark. The two of you make strong witnesses for the Lord, maybe not by your choice but just because you are you.

Gods Blessing and love,
GRANDMA SUNNY/Grandpa Lynn
