Saturday was an easy-going kind of day. We left the house late to meet Christine and Elyse at Lakeshore Learning Center to do the free arts and crafts, but mainly to transfer a carseat over to them since she would be watching the kids later on that night during Trung's company Christmas party. After lunch, we went shopping for biking essentials like biker shorts and a helmet because Trung plans to bike to work now that his company has moved to Santa Monica.
After a quick nap, Trung and I got ready for the party and dropped the girls off at Marina Del Rey, where they watched the boat parade with Christine. The party was held at La Cicada, a very nice banquet hall, in downtown LA. Traffic was horrible; apparently it is ALWAYS bad in LA. We each had a drink and some appetizers, but saved room for the buffet and desserts. We tried our hand at Black Jack, but didn't do so well, so we saved our tokens for raffle tickets to win a camera instead. The time passed very quickly and before we knew it, it was time to pick up the kids; we still had a nice time and a little break from the kids.

The girls were so wired and very happy to see us when we picked them up at Christine's house after the party.
