Easter in HK

It has been pretty crazy since February, with going back and forth between the East Coast and Hong Kong.  Todd and I were able to be in Hong Kong for about 2 weeks around Easter.

Since the Pups made their journey to the States before we left, 
they had the opportunity to have their own 'vacation'...
We have never had to leave them in boarding before, usually the kids or my Dad will baby sit.
I could NOT stand the idea of them going to a kennel.
Luckily, we were fortunate enough to find this boarding service (that even picks up and drops off pups).  They are never caged, and are treated like part of the family.
Yes, we went to their place, and interviewed them and they interviewed our dogs too.

Since our dogs are so small, they had special privileges, 
which included bonding with their 2 yo on the sofa.

It was actually wonderful, as the 'Dog Chalet', as they are called, has an FB page and they keep it updated with pictures and videos, so you don't feel so far away. 

When we arrived in Hong Kong, the constant grayness of the sky greeted us in a beautiful way.


I didn't take a lot of pictures, we were super jet-lagged, and had lots to do...

But we were able to go to the movies with the kiddos.
I sure miss these cuties.


And how funny they are!


The Easter Bunny did find it's way to the flat!




Daddy Made Pancakes, which were the bomb!



I miss this little chicken way more than should ever be possible.

Oh, Krystin got us to play 'Russian Roulette" ...
Hazelnut chocolate bullets, with one that has HOT CHILLI in it.

We made Krystin go first, since it was her idea.

She totally faked us out, got it on the first go round and played it off like she didn't, so the game wouldn't end.

Should have guessed when her eyes started watering, jk!







Todd was afraid, very afraid.
Or someone farted, not sure.

 Other random shots.

I made blue-rasberry cookies.  Different.


Indy was too cool for schoool


Xia had a rare still moment shot.


Todd and I took the birds to the vet to discuss 'options'....


We ate local food and got itchy.
It was yummy, darn it!



Dessert at the Japanese Restaurant? The bottom three quarters was corn flakes.  Apparently, in Hong Kong, American cereal is so sugary it MUST be a dessert.

LOL!  They should try the donuts!



me being silly


Cute Inds, happy with her daddoo.



Kay trying to tackle a GIANT strawberry!



Dogs are gone, so birds have claimed the floor.


Pre prom pic.

I had fun.



More transit pics.


Love, love, love them.


Miss my babes.

We were laughing so hard at the above pic, because it looks like Logan's head MIGHT just be detachable.


Then we headed back to the east coast...


But, we talk to them all the time.
I am once again grateful for modern technology.



And the pups made it home safe and sound.  Honey was so excited she became a blur face....
