Oldies But Goodies

 After Christmas leave and on our way to Germany back in January, I couldn't find the charger to my digital camera.  For months I thought I left it behind in Colorado at my parents' house and Malu let me use his.  Well, lo and behold, the charger made its way out of the woodworks and I found three old photos of Sina and my parents, back when she was 4 and 5 months old.  They are too cute not to share.

~Eating Pho with Grandpa Mati & Grandpa Ruby~

~5 months old and waiting for our household goods to arrive to our newly-issued stairwell house; she was probably wondering when her crib was going to finally get here~

She has grown so much!  I can't believe it!
Happy Monday guys!

Friday Photo Flashback

Happy Friday everyone! It's time to join Alicia over at More Than Words for Friday Photo Flashback, where you grab your old photos (pre-digital), put your scanner to use and tell us your stories! This is my second time doing it and it's so much fun. I have a box of old photos in my closet and it was so great going through them to find one to scan for today. So many memories!

This particular photo of my brother, Jonathan, and I was taken in the early to mid-1980's in Hawaii. My dad was stationed there at the time, which was so cool because all of my mom's family lives there. Jon and I had grown up on the real kung-fu movies. You know, the ones where the guys' mouths move faster than the words coming out of them? At the time, the original Karate Kid movie had come out, so we were practicing our crane kicks outside of a Bob's Big Boy restaurant after breakfast.

I can't believe how tiny my brother was back then. So cute. And oh how time has passed. I must have been around 7 or 8 then. Over 20 years ago. Look how far we've come! Not to mention 2 additional Karate Kid movies came out and now the newest re-make starring Will Smith's son is coming on next month. And I'm going to see it!

Have a happy day ya'll and see ya back on here this afternoon!
