From 16 to 80 – These are the Moments…
Today we celebrated 2 milestones. My uncle’s 80th birthday and my cousin’s 16th birthday! Both pretty important numbers as birthdays are concerned. I gave my uncle a card that was for a 40th birthday, but I wrote “times two (x 2)” in front of the 40. My rationale was that I hope I look half as good as my uncle when I’m 80!
It’s amazing how fast the kids are growing. Look at Kyle, Cody, Kevin, Kenny and Emily in these photos starting just 5 years ago when I first moved to LA:

@Loltothepower - Welcome Back Jin! Happy Waitangi Day to you too. My cousin (Cody) in the brown shirt is straight, but if that ever changes, I’d love to have you in the family! LOL
now i know what you’ll look like when you grow older. hehehe… funny in ways that i kinda relate with realizing how everyone grows fast these days. one’s already graduating from gradeschool. man! here goes time telling me, remember the wish you once asked “if you could speed things up?”.
