An Outdoors Evening With The Boys!

Today, our power went out (PG&G's behalf) so I took the boys outside. First we visited the play ground.

Vang whined 'cause he had to wait for us to 
adjust the swing. 

Lee always have a good time! 

Finally smiling after he was pushed high in the swing. 

And then we went to the garden. I had the boys helped with picking 
mustard greens for their grandparent's dinner. 

And I made boiled pork with mustard greens; 
the lemon grass gives the soups so much freshness! 

And upon going inside, Lee grabbed his long lost friend, 
"cock-o-dial" and took him home. 

It's nice to spend time with the boys and be active with them but gosh, when someone else bothers them so much and they cry and cry, I get so frustrated! I make them both sit down at the kitchen table and eat their dinner without any television (which their parents always allow) 'cause I was so frustrated! By turning off the T.V., Lee ate hastily and didn't complain at all! I shall turn it off more often!
