First day of pre-school

This is from Austin's first day of school. Below is what he takes his lunch in. The white thing in the blue cup is his wash cloth. They use this instead of paper towels and they have them at every restaurant for you to use.


This is his lunch bag....

These are his inside shoes which only get worn on the hard wood floors.

This is how you spell his name in Japanese, first and last. I only know how to write his first.

This is his Smock. They use it for eating and other messy stuff.

Austin put his socks on all by himself. They are a little sideways but on!

Day at the beach

We are about five minutes from the beach.... we probably won't ever get in but it is pretty and close. The water is way to cold and there are many strong currants.

We saw some Japanese surfing out there, it was pretty neat to see them.

This picture isn't the beach but was taken to see the mountains better.
