july 2. 2008

my mom returned to taiwan on july 2nd.

my brother decided he really wanted family photos before her return. originally, we were to have family photos on june 26 then it was moved to june 29, then to june 30, then to july 2nd.

so on july 2nd, after a full day at my job, rob and i rushed (by bus) to richmond to take photos at minoru park.

minoru park has that little wedding chapel that is a favourite of many brides. the park also has many large willow trees and a large pond.

additionally, rob had a hangover.

here are my favourite ones






so we quickly took photos, hurried to the Boathouse (i loathe the Boathouse) for dinner then hung out at my parents' house as my mom finished packing and watched a chinese soap show until 11:30pm. my dad was busy killing flying ants and trying to figure out how they were getting into the house.

at 11:30pm, we (rob, my brother, my mom, and i) went to the airport to send my mom off. her flight was at 2:20am.

we did the usual and bought some donuts, drank hot chocolate and stared at each other with 'tired eyes.'






i won't lie to you, i was really tired when, at 1:15am, we walked our mom to the security gate.
