Last year you celebrated your 5th birthday at shushu‘s condo in Austin

You and Jiejie built this castle at shushu's place

You must love this present very much

Mar. 26, 2023

Baba and shushu took you and jiejie to ski in Killington Vermount

Shushu took this picture,  you were following baba down the hill with heavy snowing and hard wind

Must be very difficult! but you did it!

Just like shushu said on the instagram "Start them young!"

Yes, baba cannot wait you and jiejie can ski with him on those double black trails

Baba told nainai and yeye:

"one season of work from magic carpet to her first double black diamond over the weekend"

BRAVO! 

Meimei, you're amazing!

You overcame the fear of the height, the steep slopes and all moguls

From now on you can do anything as long as you made up your mind!

You completed Junior kindergarten and there's a small ceremony for relatives to attend

Yeye and nainai were so happy we had the chance to visit your classroom and met with your teachers and classmates

You were only 5 years old, you should be going to kindergarten in Sep.

But after evaluation by teachers and principle

you will be going to 1st grade instead

Meimei, you will be the very youngest in your class 

You will face academic and physical challenges everyday

But yeye nainai have confidence in you

You will overcome any challenges

But remember don't put too much pressure on yourself

Nainai has two sons, so had never had the chance to braid hair for girls

So I really like to do you and jiejie's hair

This hairdo looks really cute on you

You and jiejie really like yeye! two of you are yeye's 心肝寶貝（xin-gan-bao-bei)

After attending uncle Michael's wedding in New Jersey

You, jiejie and mama will fly to Taipei together with yeye and nainai

Will not see baba for almost 2 months

You and baba could not bear to part with each other

In Taiwan!!!

You and jiejie will experience hot and humid weather for almost 2 months

Visted live seafood market and had a yummy lunch

A live lobster

Did you notice that lobster doesn't have a big claw like Boston lobsters have

Because this is a Taiwanese lobster

First experience to shrimp fishing

You and jiejie took a number of different classes while you were in Taiwan

Dance classes and Wushu

Both of you love Wushu very much

A try out class of kickboxing

Tennis lessons

Swimming lessons

You loved to play at ACC playground

Of course shopping at NET was the most fun

This pretty hair ornament was your pick at POLA

7/17/2023 Monday

We took high speed train from Taipei to Kaohsiung Zuo-ying station

Yeye rented a SUV then drove to Kenting

We stopped by National Museum Of Marine Biology & Aquarium

Very impressed!

 In those 4 days, We went to Eluanbi Park, southernmost point of Taiwan

Visited local museum where displayed some Japanese aritst works

We also went to Paradise Of Deer in Hengchun

This small deer was very nice, so you felt very comfortable to pat him/her

Lots of big deers were very aggresive

 This place was closed due to pandemic

The beautiful scenery and rocks along the ocean bank are truly amazing.

Had fun at Caesar Park Kenting hotel indoor playground

You and jiejie's happy faces showed how you love to play in the pool

After 4 days in Kenting, we went to Kaohsiung City

We went to Kaohsiung Music Center

You were the drummer and mama the guitarist

Jiejie the singer

three of you made amazing trio band

Great time at Tai Urban Resort in Kaohsiung

While in Taipei

At Grand Hotel

We all agreed that I-Ride Taipei was a fantastic experience

We should do it again with baba when you all come back this summer

Enjoy shampooing at beauty salon

With tai-a-po and cousins Maddy and Mia

With funny uncle Teddy

With the cuttest xi-er

And your favorite ACC burger

At photo studio probably was one of the most exciting experiences in Taiwan

You're such a cute and pretty girl

After spending almost two months in Taiwan

You, jiejie and mama went back to Boston

You must be so happy to see baba

Halloween!!!

You all went to Montreal for Thanksgiving Holidays

Shushu took this picture and said "Ready to ski race!"

Jiejie did this hairdo for you, looks very nice and cute

After last Febuary trip to Austin, baba mama took you and jiejie to Austin, TX again

for Christmas and New Year holidays

You look very nice with this pair of cowgirl boots

nainai doesn't know whether you've ever been riding on a horse or not

but I'm sure to ride on a horse at one of Taxes farms was the first experience to you!

In shushu's house, you helped to make different kind of food

Using dumpling wrappers to make scallion panckes

Taught by Pricilla-gugu

Looks really yummy

You also tried to make dumplings!

Helping to sprinkle cheese on garlic bread 

Yummy !!! nainai really likes cheesy garlic bread

We should do this when nainai yeye go to Boston next time

 After Christmas shushu came back to Taiwan

you and baba mama jiejie went to San Antonio

 I truly believed you and jiejie had lots of fun in Texas.

1/5/2024 Baba flew to Honolulu for work after taking you all back to Boston from Austin

Nainai and yeye flew to Honolulu from Taipei on 1/10/2024 to meet up with baba

Only for 4 days

Because we wanted to spend some time with baba before he turned 40

Nainai and yeye asked baba to bring back some souvenir we got from our Indonesia/Australia cruise trip

 Afterwards Baba sent this picture to us

You and jiejie were holding wooden handcraft animals from Indonesia 

Baba said you and jiejie love those

Ski season started

Baba took you two to ski almost every weekend, that's the happiest thing to do for baba

How about you and jiejie? must be very happy too!

After a day of skiing, jacuzzi is definetely a nice treat!

On the weekend of Baba turned 40, you all went to Killington to ski

Nainai and yeye like this picture very much

You all got a great smile

Our beloved granddaughter Haeley
