Finger painting

Today Mommy took out the finger paints! This was sister's first time doing it... and she sure did love it!

Silly kids

Now that sister is older... we are able to play by ourselves without Mommy and Daddy having to watch us every second. Today when Mommy and Daddy found us, this is what we looked like! We're so silly!!!

Pronunciation

Mommy and Daddy need to work with sister on her pronunciation!!!

Graduation picnic

Today we went to my preschool graduation picnic. (No, I did not graduate... I still have one more year!) We went to see all my friends dress in their caps and gowns and get their diplomas!

Here is a picture of the graduating class. I'm so sad to see all of them leave!


We played lots of games. Which one was my favorite?! Trying to eat the donut off the string!








We ate and had fun... and even got our faces painted! Best of luck to all my friends as they move on to kindergarten! We will miss all of you!

More iPhone pics

Here are some more pictures Mommy downloaded from her phone...

These pictures are actually from Daddy's phone. These were taken when Nana and Papa Ron were here visiting a couple months ago. Sometimes the mall has these fun motorized animals to ride! Wish they had it there all the time... it sure is fun!

Lunch with good friends

Today Mommy and sister met Mommy's old coworkers for lunch! They met at one of their favorite Korean restaurants (when they worked together, they went there at least once a week!) Mommy was so happy to see them! Sister had a great time too!

A Day out with Thomas

Back to the Fair

Today we went back to the fair to see Brenley and Kenzie sing Disney songs. Here is a clip of Bren singing "Colors of the Wind" (one of Papa's favorite songs!) Unfortunately, when she was singing, a lady was talking on the PA system.


Mommy is so amazed every time she hears Bren sing! Click HERE to see the video from August 2008, when Bren played Jasmine in the play "Aladdin."

Jason & Jessica's party

Today we went to Happy Hollow to celebrate Jason's 5th and Jessica's 3rd birthdays!

Here is a picture of all the kids (and Auntie Les!)











Here are some other pictures from our day... (clockwise): me with Danny the Dragon, riding the roller coaster with Daddy, riding the Danny the Dragon ride with Daddy and sister, hanging out with Auntie Melissa, and all smiles with the birthday boy!

County Fair

It's county fair time! Brenley and Kenzie performed again. They did a GREAT job!







Here is sister with some of our cousins... and also riding a horse!









I got to go in this big bubble and "walk on water"!










We didn't get to go on any rides this year... but we still had fun hanging out with our cousins and eating yummy fair junk food!

Visit from Cameron

Cameron (and Uncle Ronnie, Auntie Bianca and Felipe) drove to Seattle and stopped by to see us on the way home!

Here we are with my cousins and Cameron (my Yamakoshi cousins came later... Mommy forgot to take a picture with them!) We had a great time playing he Cameron! We can't wait to see all of you again!

Dinner at Connor's house

Tonight we got to go to Connor's house for dinner. Needless to say, we had a great time playing and eating yummy food.

We almost cooperated for a group picture! We may not have all smiled at the same time... but our Mommies and Daddies were so proud that we sat nicely for them to try to take the picture!
From left to right:
sister (1 1/2 yrs), Maile (3 yrs), Connor (3 1/2 yrs), Melia (3 yrs), Kayla (5 yrs), me (4 1/2 yrs), Owen (1 yr), Emmi (2 1/2 yrs)













Here we are enjoying our dinner... and sister playing the drums!

Bowling with Gavin

Today we met my friend Gavin to go bowling! We had lots of fun... well... for 5 frames! I lasted longer than last time (when I only bowled 4 frames!) This is hard work... I don't know how Mommy does it!

Sister got to join in the fun. She was so excited, she came running back after throwing the ball (with Daddy's help, of course!)

GA with cousins

After Auntie Mich got of work, we met cousins at Great America. (Uncle Todd took Dayna to ride the BIG roller coasters... so they weren't able to be in the picture).
