Merry Christmas

Happy New Year

Happy Grand-Parenting

2015 is a good year for both Fei and Tony.  It is the 5th year into retirement for Tony and 3rd year into retirement for Fei.  We finally got a chance to do things we enjoyed most which are grand-parenting and traveling.  We had several chances to visit Benjy and Lucy in Oakland and had opportunity to have every Wednesday as grandparent day with Talia.  Benjy is 6, Talia is 4 1/2 and Lucy is 2 1/2.  They are the joy of our life.
