Let's Have Some Family Fun

Friday night we went to see Nissan's baseball team play the Mitsubishi baseball team at Yokohoma Stadium. It was free and we had a really good time...although Nissan lost by 1 point in the bottom of the 10th.

Saturday night, I taught Curtis and Avery how to make gyoza. We made them and ate them. Mmmmmm!
Today was "Family Fun Day" with Avery's school at the local club YC & AC. We had sooo much fun with the kids today! It was like field day in the US except the parents participated in activities too. Check it out....
Avery with fellow classmates and friends, Gloria (left) and Riko (right)
I let Curtis participate in most of the activities with Avery...you know him, he's a BIG kid. I took most of the pictures...which was fine with me of course. So Curtis and Avery won MVP of the games today! Above is a pic of Curtis getting his "medal", which was too small to go over his head, and below is Avery getting her "medal". I was so proud!
Look at my girl run!!!! She was trying so hard to beat her daddy in this foot race of parents vs students....she won of course!
And I had to throw this in to show that I did participate some. This is of me and Avery doing the Hokey Pokey....and you turn yourself around.....need I sing anymore!?!?!

Deana, that was a great narriation of the events. I could almost see the action in each one. It is very apparent that Curtis was having a great time and Avery was loving every minute of her dad's participation. Sorry, to hear that Nissan lost to that other guy. But, Nissan beats them where it counts, in the buyers market.
Bring my chocolate covered nuts home in your suitcase! I don't want to share with mice on the ship or the ones in the warehouses.
Love ya!

Sounds like a fun time for all - especially Curtis...lol...what a kid! The gyoza looks good. What is inside of it & what kind of wrappers are used? Will you be able to get these things in the states? I will bet you will find them. I know y'all are counting down the days now to get back to where you belong but oh....what an adventure you have had. xoxoxoxo
