Sakura Fun!

This year instead of a big barbecue, we had a very traditional Sakura party, under the Sakura trees, it was great fun being with and meeting all our old friends again!

A Great group shot!

Goodbye Moofy post!

This a belated post about dear Moofy's big move to Tamba, just realised that I never posted the pictures with a tribute about her many attributes and reasons we love her!
Just some explainations, Grace sketched and painted the picture of John Lennon (Because Moofy loves him!)with Aiko in under an hour, is that talent or what? The dinner was Mexican and everyone had a great time! But we still miss our Moofy!

Happy Birthday Deren!

Once again, the time has rolled around to Deren's birthday (turning 5) here are some pictures,this year we had a couple of other families over for the event, including some of our english students, it was lots of fun! Aiko and I (Mia) made the Pinata of Baikin-man, wall-poster etc. Ken made the cake and (I decorated it!)it was super yummy!Thanks Ken!

Aquarius birthdays!

Titus turned 30 this year and JP just turned 15, happy birthday to you both! The beautiful cake you see in the center of this blog was made by Angelo, sheer genius! Unfortunately, this will probably be the last gorgeous cake we'll see from Angelo as he's leaving Kyushu and moving up to Tokyo! :(

Recap of Christmas 2008 and the highlights of the end of the year!

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, words will be minimal! As you can see, Christmas was a very busy time for us (as usual!)Performing at old folks homes and our annual appearance for the Christmas event at the Cancer ward at the Kurume Daigaku Hospital. Not to mention the lively party that we hosted at home this year! It was the perfect ending to year 2008!
