This Christmas was super busy with parties one after the other. Lots of family, friends and waaaaay too much food. We had soo much fun!
On Christmas morning, Mika and all her cousins got together for the 1st time. It was really cute…I had to get a few shots of them together.
Mika even got a couple of collars and leashes from her Auntie Tina ( Blueblood). Check them out…they have great stuff for your doggies!
Anyways…hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

Its almost Christmas time again and the years seem to be flying by. Its almost 2008!!! We finally bought our tree this week (even though the presents are still lacking) and started putting up some decorations. Its coming together pretty slowly but at least its getting done. A few more touches here and there, and it should be complete. Greg even has the little train running since we added a small tree for Mika.

Our best wishes to everyone this holiday season and an even better 2008!

I finally have some time to write about my super fun trip to Japan. This trip was all about my little niece Mia. She just turned 2 and we went to show her off to the rest of the family in Japan. The weather was great, the autumn trees were beautiful, the food was yummy and the best part was seeing my grandparents and the rest of the family!! I over planned for this 2 week trip and we were soo tired at the end…but at least we were able to do and see a lot of places. We all had soo much fun. My niece is still talking about her great grandparents, Tokyo Tower and Mt. Fuji, although every mountain she see’s is Mt. Fuji now.

This is the only tour we went on because I hate tours… but we got lucky with a sunny clear day and a great view of Fuji.

We had sushi for breakfast at the popular Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo. It was really fresh!

The Golden Pavilion in Kyoto. This place was absolutely beautiful. Kyoto was my favorite city.

This is the humongous buddha in Nara park.

This hole is the size of the buddha’s nose hole. Here’s my sister, niece and friend trying to squeeze through…haha… (sorry guys..i had to put it on here)
