Easter


The kids woke up and went through their Easter baskets. They got to look through and got to eat just a couple pieces of candy. Then everyone had to get ready for church. Everyone looked so cute in their new Easter outfits.

We had a nice Sunday that was early. Our meeting was from 8:00 - 9:00 because the Japanese had their general conference today and we had to be out of the building. Mom and Dad participated in the choir. Mom played the piano & organ while Dad sang and even Staci joined in during the performances as well.

In the afternoon Baachan & Jiichan had an Easter egg hunt for the kids. There was candy all over the yard and eggs hid everywhere. They loved it! They ate so much candy.

We had a nice ham dinner with our friends that we can now call our Okinawa family. We are so grateful for the friendships we have made here and how great everyone is with our children. They have really had an empty spot of missing family filled in while we are away from our family back at home. We know that we will always be close with our Okinawa family.

Learning to Hula

Today was a big day for Kaitlyn. We registered her for Kindergarten. It didn't quite go as planned for Mom though. We all got up early with Staci and took her to school. Then we got in line for the registration. Mom was feeling pretty good because we were like 12th one there. But as we waited for 45 minutes and got up to the front of the line they wouldn't put Kaitlyn's name on the list because we didn't have prove of our address. Mom wasn't aware that we needed it since we already have one child at the school and they should have this on file. They said they could give her the paperwork but that she couldn't be added to the list until they can verify where we live. Mom had to go home. She was furious and hoped that we could still get Kaitlyn into this school. Here in Pocatello they have open enrollment so you can take your kids where ever you want. This doesn't make any sense why it matters where you live then anyways but Mom hurried as quickly as she could...

Monster Trucks

This morning the kids all slept in but we had to get them going since today was going to be a busy day. We made pancakes & eggs for breakfast. After we ate it was time for Staci to say good bye to Cami & take her home. They had a fun sleepover although Staci has been one onwry girl every since. So it will be a few weeks before she can have another sleep over, that is for sure. We left to go and get Dad's new toy, a new BBQ grill. We got it at Costco for a little more money than Mom had originally thought when Dad started searching a few months ago. But this grill has everything; an oven, ice box, a searing station, griddle and more. It is everything Dad wants in a BBQ. But now Dad can do all the big cooking outside and not use up the kitchen for the big dinners that he puts on for people. Dad is a great cook and Mom's know this will get plenty of use. Well we got home and then had to get Xander changed to be ready for his big game. It was his first t-ball game today and...
