family pictures!

We did it! We took family pictures (twice, actually) and they turned out so awesome. Katie, our photographer, did a great job. She was so patient, especially since Natsuki tried to boycott the photoshoot alltogether. Oh, she is so being a 2-year-old right now. But Katie is such a professional that when we had our viewing it looked like Natsuki was a perfect angel in all of the pictures. I was very impressed.

So please enjoy the slideshow that Katie put together for us.

Sakura's Birthday Photoshow

Sakura had a great birthday party with us and her Japanese grandparents. It kind of looks like a repeat of Misaki's birthday, except that the dress is pink. Oh well, it was what she requested and she is really enjoying playing with all her gifts and that's all that matters!

Also, I have to add this picture of Natsuki wearing the tiara that Sakura got. It's just too cute!

I hope you enjoy!

favorite pictures

We bought a new digital camera just over a year ago and when I was going through my pictures I decided to group some of my favorites together. Enjoy!

This is what Natsuki does to amuse herself. Enjoy!
