So sweet in their matching tops from Gran.



























Easter weekend was wonderful for us. Saturday we had an egg hunt in a bamboo wood near our place. The kids had a blast and while waiting for daddy to hide the eggs my friend Kelly (here with Evangelism Explosion) did a spectacular job getting all the kids to learn the motions to the story of our redemption!


Then we had a crowd for dinner that evening.....with a wonderful Easter service at Jesus Community in Kokubunji.


Every well dressed girl needs 'heel heel' sparkly shoes...especially to play at the park!






The Lord has been so good to me in Higashikurume. I am truly wealthy in friends sprinkled all over the planet. God has just added to my treasure chest........


Lili went with Chad to Sendai for a day trip. She was too cute all packed with dress up clothes, her bear, coloring books and crayons for the shinkansen ride up north. With the Festival over I am pretty sure the office staff played with her all day, chase, hide and seek, supergirl as well as lunch out and ice cream! She was exhausted when she got home but full of stories.

My favourite boy!!!



Riding the rails.....





She got new sparkly shoes for her trip to Amerika. I have had a hard time getting them off of her!

Nykolas upgraded his bike!





I love this shot...Nykolas had been gone all day with Chad on a day trip and Lili couldn't get enough of him when he returned!


This is how I roll without Yaya....not pretty. And I did it alone on the Seibu Ikebukuro line during rush hour. Thankfully little Noa fell fast asleep in her sling and Lili was encased in the stroller so no little person was squished in the jam packed train. I received a lot of incredulous looks but smiled in spite of it and the kids were good!

We wear this baby out!!!




Daddy found Reese's Pieces (expensive) but very yummy train snack on the way home from church one Sunday.


Love this flower shop near our place. We have to walk by it to get almost anywhere we go around here.....the smell and colours lift my spirits!






Our dear friend Teju came for a visit for a few days. It was so good to see her face!!


Saying goodbye for a few months. Yaya is off to Manila.....she is so so missed!
