Parental Pictoral Post-game Post

My parents and my lovely young (though I won't say "little" because she's as tall as me!) 13 year old cousin came to visit for 3 whole weeks. 

It was fun and relaxed and slow and non-stop all at the same time. 
Family is like that.  

The cleanliness of my floors suffered greatly due to unnamed people who forget they're in Asia and must take off their shoes. But no one complains because dirt on white tile floors is negligible when held against finding extremely fast go-karts in our city, and when miniature Walt Disney World Monorail systems are handed out freely, and rainbow-y kitchen rugs are bought and gifted on the spot when certain 2nd-born daughters claim, "they'll go perfectly in my kitchen!" Waterfalls and satay and movies every.single.night. was it how rolled around here for 3 weeks. Enjoy some of the moments!
Our dear Kak Aygee is helping to free our children from rubberbands-off-the-ground-borne diseases that threaten to infect our middle son at any and all public outings.
"They can't fall in!!!" Yeah, right! Like safety standards exist here!

"Don't show your teeth. They think it's a challenge."




Wanna know the cure for pink-eye? Ketchup. And Ikea.
And if that doesn't work, an afro-puff and some chlorine will seal the deal.
"Satay!"
Rice you stab with a stick. Tell me how your night could be better?
Ok, ok. You're right!  Pinterest and glow-sticks in coke bottles polishes an evening off rather dreamy.
I know it's hard to look at our mugs when there's random camping guys' underwear on the rock next to us.
I swear we were really trying to make it a good one!


What American WaterBirds look like when they hatch in Southeast Asia.
 Thanks parents and Laina for shelling out big bucks to come all this way and do things like go grocery shopping and swim.  Our socks are blessed clean off to have the family we do!
