Min's dad, Francis, came to visit her in England shortly after they got back from their home leave in Singapore. Tonight they had a traditional "Wong" BBQ for all of us to enjoy visiting with him. He posed for a picture with me, Sarah, and Emily.
We always have way too much food, but it is so good that you can't stop eating. Danny always starts out with chicken satay skewers and today he also made up Asian style chicken wings and Chinese beef skewers and Min made my taco dip recipe and had veggies and dip. Okay...all of that filled us up, but he went ahead and made the sausages and Min had noodles, fried rice, I made potato salad and Sarah made this amazing chocolate torte.
This also enjoyed some yummy ice cream cones and Addison just loved them. She also loved getting to play with Emily's younger sister, Gemma who graciously lets Addison drag her around.
Ahh...Harrison, you look so much like your daddy.
Danny and Min have a nice, big back garden that accommodates us eating outside and let the kids get a football game in on the side. It's okay if they kick the ball against the fence a bit because it's already leaning into Simon's back yard.
Min and her dad look so much alike. He doesn't speak much English but he is so sweet. He really enjoyed his time in England.
Look at these two. Looks like trouble to me.
At one point Kevin had to make a run for it to catch Addison and lept over one of our green camping chairs. Well, of course this turned into some backyard Olympic sporting event. They left the chairs up for the adults and the kids got to jump over them folded up on the ground. Addison did a great job!!! Do I see a future Olympian?
Of course, no get together at the Wong's could go by without the microphones being broken out with the karaoke and songs by the infamous Michael "Bloton" (crazy Singaporian karaoke CDs). This was the first time we had Mike and Debby Beales partake in the fun and Mike fully got his two girls and wife turning red with his fabulous efforts.
