Family Reunion


Ray knew that his very americanized children would again try
to stir up trouble at the annual Hung family reunion. Even though
they said nothing, he could see and hear them plotting devilment
in their little heads. This time Aunt May and cousin Charlie
would truly get it in the end. hee hee hee!
Happy Wednesday everyone.

    Nessa! If this isn't the cutest thing. Those Hung family children are conniving indeed, in an adorable sort of way.:)

    Love you and happy to see you stick your head out. I emailed you earlier in the week. Can't wait to talk with you again, sweetheart.

    Bravo on the illo!

    I love the Hung family. They do look a tad bit mischevious. Very nice job. Have a great Wednesday Vanessa.
