Back from Camping

The Kids arrived from their two day camping trip. All the parents were waiting expectantly for the bus.

It was a great trip. Motoki said "it was Awesome" and "I missed you".

The class was greeted like home-coming heros and went through a tunnel of little arms.

School Trip

Motoki's class is heading off on a two night camping trip.

WOW. 

The kids are really excited.

Gymnastics

Mo is really excited about joining Gymnastics class.

He can do this too!

Nap Inc.

We visited our favorite mountain cafe.

They serve delicious and seasonal local foods.

The owners just got a new dog, Motoki was very excited!

 Too cute! 

        Motoki says he would rather have a puppy than a baby Brother or Sister...haha...

Block Workshop

We all enjoyed participating in a wooden block building workshop.

Everyone built a miniature city together.

It was fun to build for an hour or so then break down and clean up in 10 minutes.

Summer Festival at School

This festival was originally scheduled for earlier in the Summer, but it was rained out.

It's a chance for students and parents to relax and enjoy summer food and games.

The kids go to work preparing veggies for curry.

 Wow, it's a big pot of curry.

 They also enjoyed, cotton candy.

 bowling.

 And Japanese Shaved Ice.

 Mo is in the oldest group at his pre-school, and will definitely miss his buddies when he goes off to Elementary School next spring.

 Delicious and makes your tongue blue too.

 After multiple sweets, it's time for Curry.
