A lot has happened since we last posted, so here is a quick update:
1) We moved to Irvine. We moved mostly because Sam needed to be closer to work and our community of friends are mostly down here as well. We were commuting to Irvine so often that it didn’t make sense for us to be in Santa Ana anymore. Sam is enjoying riding his bike to work and I am enjoying running to the farmer’s market on saturdays.
2) Sam turned 26! Yes, my beloved husband turned 26 on July 1st. We had a nice dinner with friends and family. Sam’s request for his birthday dinner….PHO! I am so thankful to be married to the man of my dreams.
3) 4th of July
Well folks, The Nguyen Family, all two of us, went to the happiest place on earth to celebrate Independence Day, Disneyland! We both have not been to disneyland in over 10 years. Here are a few pics from the day.
modeling the cool 3D glasses from “Honey, I shrunk the kids” show. The show was full of neat surprises.
Cruella giving Sam a “Cruella makeover”. He was such a good sport about it!
We brought lunch instead of paying mad disney money for okay quality food. Here’s a quick snap of me in our parking lot picnic.
We attended a disney art institute class and had a free session of learning how to draw disney characters. This one is Sam’s….(the instructor specifically told us to round out the corners of Goofy’s teeth so he wouldn’t look like a villain. Sam had his own agenda though…)
Tivian’s drawing.
Whose do you like better?
In the end the drawing class was one of our favorite attractions at disneyland.

This concludes my post. We will try to post more frequent, so updates like these won’t bore you!

We’ve all cut our own hair when we were kids, right? I think I was 4 when I cut my own hair with scissors.
So here’s a few things before we go to bed:
1. Thanks to tdmc for sending in this pic of his odometer reading 130,000. While its not prime, it does have the digits 13 in it, which is a very prime number. Thanks tdmc!
2. The other night we watched Juno at the Woodbridge theater ($1.50 tickets). The theater was pretty packed out, we actually had to step over some seated people to get to our seats. The characters in the movie were just hilarious…Juno is this fast-talking, indie-rocker, teenage girl full of clever comebacks like a freestyle rapper. The other main character, Bleeker, my wife says I am like him in many ways. Not really a compliment, I don’t think.
3. I tried doing some car repairs and I have been defeated. Like they say, stick to what you know. I’ll stick with computers and real simple car stuff. In case you are interested in either replacing the automatic serpentine belt tensioner on your 1999 Toyota Corolla or replacing the drive belts on a 2000 Honda Civic, let me warn you, you think you can save a few hundred bucks but is it really worth it? Let my mistakes be your lessons.
4. Our wedding pic slideshow link broke, so here’s another one (I just picked a handful of my favorites):
