More On The Tsai's

Hey Gang!

Three Tsai brothers have moved to Johnston after prodding from their cousin
Connie.

Connie: You guy have to be tire of moving all around!  We need to stick together! 
Besides who other than family is going to sit for our rambunctious kids!

The Tsai family is originally from San Francisco.  Their family originally
came to the United States to build the railroads. Yes, they are Chinese but
they are Americans too!

One branch of the Tsai family moved to Oregon to farm.  The boys are from
that side...Blaine, Blake, Blair and little brother Blaidyn. They lived on an
fruit orchard.Their father grew the fruit and their mother was an artist.
They grown up spending a lot of  time outdoors. They like martial arts and
loved to fight as boys.  Anything was a weapon to them. They still fight as
adults! It is a little different! It is mostly verbal unless they are in the dojo!

Hae is married to Blake Tsai!  They are both teachers. They met while teaching at
the same high school.  He had been teaching longer than she did.  Blake offer to help
her get things organized and show her the ropes.
Blaine and Blair: Yeah, helping the new teacher!
Blair: That's so lame

Blaine and Blair
Blake: OK, You guys want some of this! I didn't think so! Don't make me take my tie
off!
Blake has been named teacher of the year... and met the Present! Hae was a
runner up.
They have moved to Johnston with their daughter.
Hae: Your brothers are just teasing!
Blaine and Blair: Like we would be afraid of him taking his tie off!

Blake and Hae have a daughter Meadow.
Blake and Hae have been taking care of their niece Willow for his brother Blaine 
while he was on a long term teaching job overseas.


His wife died two years ago.  He has moved here for a position as an Art professor.

You have also met Kieu...

but you know her husband, Blair and the other brothers.

Connie introduced them...well kinda.
Connie: I invited her to a party I was giving.  I had invited Blaine and Blake. Let me tell 
you it was really hard to get Blaine to even come!  I really thought that Blake or Blaine 
would have been more her type than the care free Blair. Who knew? I didn't even invite
Blair! He just showed up! The next thing I knew she was moving in with him! Moving In!
Conservative Kieu was moving in before being married! Six months later they were down
the aisle.

Blair: I knew what I wanted her when I saw her! It was seeing her in traditional dress that
did it for him.
And she speaks five languages including Chinese. Blaine and Blake spoke Chinese
better being older. He has since gotten better.

Blaine and Blake: You fell at her feet begging! You followed her around the whole
party!
Ha, ha, ha! She made you get a real job too! No surfing all day!

Blair: What ever!
Blair is a father of three. He and Kieu have a son Blaisden, continuing the the BL names,
his mother calls him Rin, a daughter Mio.
Rin and Mio
 The Tsai men love their hair! It is a part of their mother's culture. 
She was Japanese.
and a daughter Cheri.

Blair has just opened a sporting goods store in Johnston. His love of sports
combined with his love of the outdoors while in college.  He got his degrees
in Phys-ed at West Chester University. The setting and the school let him know
that small town living was the life he wanted!

Youngest brother Blaise is still in college back in Oregon! He hasn't made a visit but
they are expecting him for Easter break!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
