July 12 our family gathered at Fawn and Joe’s house to celebrate Madeleine 15th birthday. The weather for the most part was good but a little humid. We had sushi for appetizers while we waited for the grill ribs and shrimp. As customary Chinese tradition Madeleine was given red envelope with money. Red means luck and that is what we wish for Madeleine as grows into a fine and hopefully a responsible young lady. We are not sure what happen but Madeleine name was misspelled on her cake. After she blew out her birthday candle Josephine some how got hold of one of the candle and proceeded to chew on it. We had the usual family chitchat and thankfully no Thi family drama, which is customary at ever-family gathering. As customary when the opportunity arises, the women in the family decided to go shopping. While the women were out shopping we decide to order a pay per view movie called “Cloverfield.” The not the best move in the world and the best way to describe the move is Godzilla meets the Blaire Witch project. The movie was a dizzying blur of action for about 1 hour and most likely would have caused a lot of motion sickness. Joseph was left in our care during this time. For the most part he was good and we were able to amuse him until he got tired and was put to be bed. The day wound down to pizza at 9:30 pm before the entire left for home. All in all it was a good day spent with family.
