College Visit Road Trip

We went on our first family college visit touring a few UC colleges, USC, Pomona, and Cal Poly. It was a lot of un

We met up with Ashley and Conor, their friends since they were kids. The family moved to south California so we don't meet as often as before.

On family trip, Max and Renee always hang out very well and go everywhere together.

Renee took the opportunity of beach sunset and did lots of poses.

On the last day, we stayed at a a fancy resort. The restaurent was really cool.

Max went with his Kungfu team to perform at the Golden Gate Warrior game for the third year. This time they are performing during the half-time break.

Max continues with his training for the Summit High Adventure.

We ended our month with a visit to one of the populare restaurant close to SFO airport.

One-Wheel and Performance

This month we didn't take many pictures.

We bought one-wheel during the Christmas for Max (and for me too, actually). As we hoped, it has become a bonding toy for Max and me. We will go out from time to time and take turn to learn how to ride it. We record our own sessions and compare our stats. Max learned it much faster, though. He even watched video on line to learn tricks that I am still too scared to try.

As the first chair, Renee went to many performances in the community. She is expected to be able to perform solos in these events soon. Renee took this with pride and responsibly.

Max went with one of his buddies and his family for a ski trip in Heavly. They went up and down all the black diamond slopes!

Even though Renee has not been to many outings, she kept her engagement with the scouting program by going to the troop meetings and support when she can. This is from an event where the troop is formally accepting two Cub Scouts from a nearby pack.

Snowboarding and Dance

February was another month with lots of actions but fewer pictures because they are out there on their own!

 

This is actually from January. Max also went out for a second trip where they really camped in the snow. I am still waiting for the pictures to be uploaded.

Here is Renee with her dance team. Dancing has been a good stress release activity as Renee is getting ready for the college application.

Max wanted to learne snowaboarding. So we went to Boreal on an overnight trip. When they were younger, we used to do this very often. Here is one blog post from 11 years ago!
