…at our house this week. (But we are getting things done, and handling the moving stress pretty well.)

We spent the day at the beach with some friends who have a little boy the same age as Saya. I couldn’t stop taking pictures of the two of them. They are such a perfect match. It is amazing how similar their behavior is. They were doing everything together all day. For a while they [...]

We had a lovely weekend as usual, but this week has been a rough one for us–we are just swamped with work and a big translation project that we have to finish. (Plus all of the moving stuff that we have to think about.) Junji and I have divided up some of the moving tasks [...]

I haven’t posted much recently because I have been so busy. We are in the midst of a big transition in our family. After much thought and discussion Junji and I have decided to return to the States. We are moving back at the end of August. We are really busy with all of the [...]

Junji and I have both been at home sick this week. On Tuesday I felt awful at work, but I thought I was just over tired. I went home and had a nap, but I woke up feeling worse. About an hour later Junji came home from work saying how bad he felt. I usually [...]

It doesn’t get much better than these smiles.
Elena, the little girl in the picture above, gave this dress to Saya. She chose it herself, and I love it! She has good taste.

On Saturday we stayed at the beach all day and into the night. We had a really good time with friends. I took lots of photos throughout the day, but my favorites are these evening photos. Everyone was tired out at this point–but in a good, relaxed kind of way. We didn’t see an awesome [...]

Saya and I had the most awesome two hour nap this afternoon! I woke up feeling so good. Also, it’s friday!!–which is always the best. We celebrated with some sushi and beer after Saya went to bed, and tomorrow we get to spend the whole day at the beach! I am feeling good today.

For kids in Japan, summer is a time for festivals. They dress up in yukatas (summer kimonos), eat ice cream, catch goldfish, and play with fireworks. On Saturday we had our summer festival at school. This year Saya wore a yukata for the first time. She looked beautiful and we were so proud of her! [...]
