Happy Birthday Ethan!
We got to celebrate this special boy's birthday this week.
He is such a delight and we are so lucky to have him in our family.

Good eats
We took the family to the mall over the weekend. We stopped for a late lunch and looked around the different stores before ending up at the Daiso. The Daiso is the Japanese 100 yen store. 100 yen is roughly a dollar. So it's basically the dollar store, but way better than the ones in the U.S. Like a cheep Container Store.
The kids love to go shopping there and beg to go back all the time.
So far this is one of our most favorite places to eat...
We order by pointing to the pictures and holding up fingers for the amount we want.
I really really want to learn how to speak Japanese. It is driving me crazy that I can't communicate.
Pick up your order, the skillet plate is sizzling and meat is still raw.
Instructions...
So very yummy!

Dessert Kingdom!
Like Crepes?
These are just a few of their choices. They make them fresh and hand it to you wrapped up like a waffle cone. So very good!
This is the Japanese version of a glacier.
We got a kick out of this KFC Hottie:)
Apples...
The apples in Japan are amazing!
(as long as you don't buy them at the commissary, the produce there is terrible!)
Our first time to the local fruit stand. Also known as the "Apple Lady".
It was a fantastic experience, and the produce is so very good. We got a whole box of tasty apples, plus some extra goodies for 1,510 yen. It was my second time using my yen. Kevin is a pro, I've been too nervous about the language barrier and looking like a fool. The Apple Lady was so sweet to me, and we will definitely be going back.
