It's difficult to find the time to do anything when you have a baby, let alone blog. But, alas, here I am, albeit a little behind schedule. My girlfriends, Laura and Becca, hosted an open house for us on October 7th. I want to introduce Taka to so many people but I tried to keep the invites focused on our church family. I hope you will still come visit Takahiro, if you haven't met him yet. I really think he has gotten bigger and is smiling more each day! Here are a few pictures from our shower. I wish I had taken more pictures of our guests but I was busy visiting. Laura and Becca did an amazing job and I am so thankful for their friendship!
Here is the food spread. We had fondue, meatballs and little cakes from Three Women and an Oven. I've heard so much about Three Woman and an Oven over the years but haven't ever tried them because they are so far away but, holy cow, they were absolutely delicious!
Taka loves it when Grandma is holding him. I think Grandma likes it, too! :-)
Our dear friends, Lud and Rebecca, were the first to arrive!
JAPAN FESTIVAL
Below are a couple pictures taken from the Japan Festival, October 6th. We had a blast. We ran into so many of my students, who were very excited to meet Taka. My mom was able to come because she was already in town for the baby shower. It was great having here there because I've been attending/volunteering for 12 years now and it was nice to be able to share that with her. I probably should have explained to her what cosplay was before the festival, though, as there were quite a few people walking around in costumes!
