My parents are making 5 dishes today for lunch, I am anxiously waiting for the meal with the excitement of a little kid. We went shopping in Ranch 99 yesterday and bought bunch of stuff, oyster mushroom, halibut, crab, lychee, etc. Ellie is enjoying her mid morning nap while we prepare for the meal.
I have to fly out this afternoon to Chicago, it puts a bit damp on my weekend spirit, but you do what you have to do to enjoy the moment. It is a great Sunday with the perfect temperature of 73 degree outside. Birds are chirping and neighbor's kids are playing basket ball on the street, things are just humming away.

Huntsville
Ellie got on the plane for the first time this weekend, oh well, more precisely, since after she was born, considering all these miles she has already flown while inside of me. She did better than I would have expected and was curious the whole time about the people, the buttons on the seats, and she gave the flight attendant a big smile and earned a set of wings and a full smile back. We had a long layover in Denver, plenty of time for me to carry Ellie all the way from gate 33 to 85, seems like miles while you are carrying a 18 pound baby, a heavy laptop bag and a diaper bag that's about to explode. But it is all worth it, Ellie was just fascinated by all things around her and kept her smiles.
Landed in Huntsville right on time, grandpa took his brand new metallic Subaru to the airport to pick us up. He literary just picked the car up from the dealership that morning. Hmm, that's the smell of the new car, just love it. Ellie was the immediate star and center of the attention from the grandparents as soon as we got home. Uncle and aunt and their kids soon arrived and lots of fighting on who gets to hold Ellie the first. Grandparents' sister and her husband also got here not long after, they just adored Ellie.
Weather was completely gorgeous in Huntsville, it was balmy 80 degree all through the weekend. I even started dreaming about retiring here, why not, waking up by the birds chirping at 9 in the morning is so much more pleasant rather than the annoying alarm clock at 4 every Monday. Oh well. it is ok to dream at least.
