Graduation Party at Amy's

Their spicy rice noodle soup was out of this world!! Yumm!!
The food kept coming!! Even after I finished eating what's in the picture, they served us more food. So nice!

Amy with Saya and Aly. Saya kept climbing up the stairs.

A very sweet family, indeed!

Today was Amy's graduation day. Amy and her family invited all of us to their home to celebrate Amy's achievement. We have a very high opinion of Amy and today we saw why she is the way she is. Her entire family, including her parents, brothers, a sister, aunts, uncles, cousins, great aunts etc... are SO NICE!! They are very friendly and kind, treating us like one of their own. They offered to watch the kids so that we could eat, they kept bringing us food and more food, they sat next to us to chat with us, I was humbled!
The food was SO GOOD!! They had an outdoor kitchen and they were serving hot noodles with various toppings. My favorite was prawns with chili wasabi sauce. Most of the dishes were spicy and that's the way we like it. I am going to request Chio to cook us more of those when she comes back on Tuesday. Being at their house reminded me of being back home with my extended family. They were all Mien Chinese and Mike was the only white guy in there. Mike was hanging out in the basement with a young crowd watching basketball and they offered him a $1.50 a piece cigarette from China. Mike said it was really smooth and see why it's expensive.
We had a really good time and thank you so much for having us there, Amy!!
On the other note, my Mom called from Salt Lake City and she said she enjoyed Yellowstone very much. She accidentally deleted all the photos she took and she was bummed about that. She is glad though that she was able to see all the beautiful sites.
