… and carry on.

It is heated times with first the election and now the preparation for the exchange of power to a new president.

There is much uncertainty. But we hold fast to Him. And pray. Not nearly enough!

Proverbs 21:1 — “The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns it wherever He wishes.”

For our little guy, it’s modus operandi — serious silliness all around. :) Undiscerning childhood naiveté, we’ll take some of that! Both of his wittle feet may hardly touch the ground simultaneously, but oddly, he does keep us grounded. :))

Batman got a lesson in the voting process.

First time at Festival at the Switchyard in Carrollton. All rides, games and activities were free and no lines, surprisingly. (Maybe because we went earlier in the day). E had a ton of fun.

Stumbled upon this family owned Cuban dulceria in the square with homebaked goods aplenty.

Since we were in the area, we stopped by Asia town for a new (to us) hot pot place and then coooooold patbingsu. Taiwanese snow is better. ;)

Scootering with the boys.

The Fantastic Four.

Our Heard Museum was expiring so we went one last time to see the dinosaur exhibit. Oh, did we mention that is going through a dinosaur craze? They had switched out the animatronics. The dinosaur eggs were a novelty.

Still a tad cautious of them but definitely not the fearfulness of before.

He sure knows how to scare Mama! There was a snake exhibit this time. Only Father and Son entered.

We might’ve hyped up E’s previous b-day party experience at Chuck E. Cheese so much that Uncle Dan wanted to celebrate his (along with Grandma’s) there, too.

Can’t tell who had more fun. :D

Family b-ball went down.

Two cakes for the two November babies. One would think it’s E’s birthday.

Boogie-ing with the mouse. Auntie Glo participated. :)

Then it rained tickets.

Uncle Ji (plus one) joined the festivities.

Then cuz Mommy is so nice and E was disappointed he didn’t get to play the Batman game at the location we went to and we had extra tokens (and… and… and…), we went to another one right next to his gymnastics the day after.

Nope, not tired of Chuck yet.

Wish these evening snuggles and chitchat will be a forever occurrence.

Tree Lighting #1 of 2016. Yes, in November.

Horsey ride, check!

Lego build day at the library. He found this gem and was delighted. We asked to buy it from the librarian but no can do. :P

We went to a fundraiser for the local advocacy center. The character meet n’ greet line for Paw Patrol was insane! We kind of felt sorry for Pikachu and paid for a pic. :) (Good cause, right?)

The line for Batman was long-ish, too. E said he just wanted look from afar but once we got closer, we knew he just HAD to meet him. ;P

Guess that smile was worth lost hours in this life. Hehe.

Riding into the sunset.

Oh and happy big 10 to us! Yes, we are a decade old couple. ;-P We threw around some getaway ideas but in the end decided to celebrate low-key due to some schedule conflicts and responsibilities/deadlines. Plus, we’ve got some trips to come in the next few months…
