July Round Up - Part 1

I look forward to July every year because that's when my entire family gets together for our Annual Wong Vacation. Each year becomes more exciting because the family just keeps growing - there's always a new baby to fawn over or a development in one of the kids to praise. This year was a bit different since we were all on different time constraints - our usual 3 day shindig was cut short to a 1 day affair. We decided to steer clear of the heat in LA and spent the day cruising through Santa Barbara...by foot.

The weather in SB was fantastic - low 70s and cloudy skies. We began our 2 mile trek along the beach towards the pier (or rather towards food). The kids were definitely troopers and walked the whole way without any complaints (that cannot be said of the adults haha). We ended up at Brophy Brother's for some awesome fish & chips and steaming clam chowder:


Every kid in the family is really growing into their own personalities and it's great to watch the dynamics. Jonathan is now 7yrs old and going into 2nd grade. His two sidekicks, Kaylen and Ian, are both going on 5. K will be joining Jonathan on the school bus this year and is headed to kindergarten. Ian is also heading into kindergarten and LOVES planes. And the movie Cars.


The 2 younger girls, Navs and Reya, are going on 2. I think they were a bit wary of each other upon introduction but after the requisite matching outfits picture, I think they warmed up. Navs likes to eat and so does Reya...so why wouldn't they not get along?!


And little B, growing up so fast. He's nearly 1 years old and such a happy sturdy baby. He's not old enough to tumble with the big kids but by next year, it should be a different story. Charmain & Sang got him an iPoo onesie - so freakin cute!


The future...


Stay tuned for more adventures!
