Bath time...




Thank God the boys are finally showering by themselves these days so I only really have 2 kids to bathe. Plus there aren't many bath tubs big enough for my 4 monster kids. But it's times like this that make me enjoy all the duties of being a parent.


Caught in the act...


I was doing something in the other room and I hadn't heard anything from Cullen in a while. And like any parent knows when you don't hear much it usually means they're up to no good. So I came around the corner and found my sweet Cullen munching on some styrofoam. If he wasn't so darm cute I might have been a little upset but he just looked up at me and grinned. Gotta love him!!!

A Celebration of Something...

We woke up today to find out the city of Sendai was having a celebration of God only knows what. There were people everywhere with vendors up and down the main street. You can see Cullen and some lady (or man I'm not sure) conversating. My two blonde children get a lot of attention here in Japan. There not used to seeing the light hair I guess.






Movie Night...




Bennyland




















Today we went to an amusement park here in Sendai called Bennyland. It had a bunch of games and rides for the kids. It was only about a 15 minute cab ride away so super convenient for me. The kids had a blast and I had a pretty good time also. We will definitely be going back there.


Finally a sunny day...

After about 3 weeks of straight rain (and I mean literally everyday) we finally had our first day of sun. So we had to take advantage of it because we didn't know how long it would last. Here the kids are soaking up the sun and digging in the sand. Man was it hot but we weren't complaining.

Tokyo Disney Sea

For the all-star break here in Japan, Kevin and I took the kids back to Tokyo and went to Tokyo Disney Sea. The kids had a blast and didn't want to leave. These trips are always a lot of fun but we are always glad to get back home.

























This was our hotel room. As you can see it was just a lot of beds which is exactly what we needed. For a family of 6 everyone had their own space and nobody even had to share a pillow.
