Yeah! We are going back to the States for a visit soon. It has been too long. We have been in Japan since 2006. It will be nice to see everyone and introduce the twins to them. Just pray for us on the plane ride with 2 toddlers! lol I have been taking so many photos lately. On Sunday, we went to Aomori, Japan. It is about an hour and a half away, so not bad at all. We went to a beautiful place called Oirase Gorge. There are tons of waterfalls there and trails to hike. It was a little difficult with the twins, but we managed. We also visited Lake Towada. It was great to get out of the local area. I love to explore Japan!! Here are some photos.

Wow, I have gotten so behind on posting. Since the kids are out of school I am so busy trying to keep them busy. It has rained here almost everyday this month. For the past 4 days, no rain..keep my fingers crossed. I am enjoying the nice weather. The highest temperature is around the low 80's. We are headed to the States next week for a visit. I hear the weather is VERY hot there so it will be a shock to our systems. We will be there for 45 days. My mother-in-law bought all of us tickets to go to Disneyland while we are there. The kids are so excited. I haven't seen my parents in 4 years, so it will be nice to catch up. The kids and I have been going all around lately. Coral and I got to go to a park last weekend and take photos. It was so nice to just be with her. I hardly ever get a chance to be with my kids one on one anymore. I am always with all of them. I need to spend more one on one time with each of them. Anyway, enough rambling, here are some photos I have taken rece...

> This week over at http://www.iheartfaces.blogspot.com/ the theme is all about the boys. It was hard for me to decide since I have 3 boys! I finally decided on this picture of my son Emerson. Go on over and check out the other entries at http://www.iheartfaces.blogspot.com/ .

I took tons of photos of my daughter yesterday. She is such a good sport. She is my only daughter so I constantly take photos of her. Here are some of the pictures. Yes, I know the headband thing looks kind of weird. My husband keeps telling me over and over. Oh well, she is beautiful no matter what to me. I was going for a seventies vibe anyway. lol

Finally, I get around to putting these on here. These are some photos I took awhile ago, just been too busy to post them.

This week over at http://www.iheartfaces.blogspot.com/ the theme is your favorite up close shot. This is one of my favorite pictures of my son, Logan. I love his expression and his eyes. I hope you like it! Head on over to http://www.iheartfaces.blogspot.com/ to check out the other entries. "I am submitting this photo into the www.iheartfaces.com Blurb Book photo contest.

So, on the 23rd, the twins will be 2 and my son, Mckenzie, will be 8. Yes, that is right, I have 3 birthdays all on the same day! Where has time gone? And why do I still have "baby weight" after 2 years?? I just can't believe how the kids are growing so fast! My daughter will be 12 in July. A teenager next year! Whoa!! My kids get tired of me snapping pictures of them constantly, but I tell them they will be so happy to look back at those pictures one day and remember when they were younger. I really need to start taking more pictures of myself with my kids! That is my new goal! I have a tripod and a remote, so I should be able to manage it! Life goes by so fast and I want to catch all the memories I can!
