First, let me tell you what we did today.
Deana and I have been searching for some flea market info lately and ran across a website saying that the Tokyo Salvation Army has a Bazzar every Saturday. GREAT! We head off this morning to find it based on this weblink (map link here) Easy right? Nope. The map is not drawn to scale (which really bugs me btw) and there is no indication of North. So, long story short, we (I) guessed and walked the wrong direction for about 15 minutes. When we found out we were going the wrong way, we turned around and trotted back. 20 minutes later, we found ourselves in the middle of a neighborhood thinking that we should give up and go home. Then, with no warning, wha-lah! In the middle of nowhere, there sits the Salvation Army. We found some pretty cool stuff, but I don't think it was worth the time (2hr each way) or the train/ bus fare (3000 yen) to get there. Anyway, Deana got a cool Japanese tea set in a wooden box for 1200 yen. In a retail store, it would have been much more. At least we didn't come back empty handed.
Now, on to the real reason for the post.
Avery has been in school for a little over 3 months now and is doing great! She really enjoys her time in school (5 days a week) and has made several friends that she like to visit and play with on the weekends (when we have time).
As proud parents, Deana and I wanted to put her on YouTube so you could see what she's learning in school. Enjoy!

We have a neighborhood Mochi-Tsuki party tomorrow. We will post pics and explanations tomorrow night when we get back from it. It should be lots of fun!!

Avery, I just wanted you to know that Ana Grace LOVED your video. We are working on many of the things you have mastered, and she smiled throughout the whole video. When the video ended, Ana said, "More!" I guess she is ready for more performances from you.
Wow, what a smart little girl. Only 4 years old and she can write her name and everything. I worked with people who couldn't even do that.
We miss y'all & I need my shootin' buddy back. Love you, Dad
Wow Avery, I am so impressed with how smart you are ~ I bet you take after your Aunt Pat! Hehehe! I could not believe how pretty you could print your name, & you're only 4 years old. Cool! Keep up the good work so you can grow up to be very smart like your Mommy.
(Oops, & Daddy). :) I also loved that Valentine song. Stay sweet & know I love you all much.
Loved it, too cute, especially the E. Please give her a hug and tell her it's from me!
Wow - I am behind. First of all...as I laughed through my tears, it dawned on me - REALLY dawned on me that we are missing such an important year of her life. Thank you SO much for letting us watch her grow up with you. Secondly...that was precious. I love that Wednesday now comes after Friday...and the "E" and "R" in her name were adorable - please keep that piece of paper. I love and miss you all sooo much. 5 more weeks!!!
