Okinawan Zoo May 16th

A couple of weeks ago, I took the kiddos and my friend, Candace's, kiddos to the zoo so that Candace and her hubby could go scuba diving to the Karamas.  We had such a fun time.  A lot of people were asking me if Tatum and Miya were twins and if all of them were mine and saying ka-wah-ee (cute in Japanese).  The kids had a great time feeding the fish and seeing all the fun animals.  Their favorite part was the Children's Museum.  They loved dressing up and trying out all the experiments.  We are really going to miss the Adairs since they are moving this month.

Celebrating "Month of the Military Child"



We were able to enjoy a fun Saturday at Torii Beach where they were celebrating "Month of the Military Child".  It was a lot of fun and "Free".  That's always nice.  Tayson had a great time playing in the water and going down the slide.  They also had a lot of bouncy castles and activities for the kids.  Sadly, Tayson left a little upset because the treasure hunt was only for kids 6 and up.  Tatum enjoyed listening to a local band play a lot of fun oldies.  They were very entertaining and did an excellent job.  It was surprising to find out that they didn't speak english since they sang the songs so great.




Tayson's Field Day

Tayson had a really fun Field Day at school.  They had all sorts of relay races and fun activities for the kids.  Tayson was so happy that Jay and Tatum were able to come and cheer him on.
Here is Tayson telling his buddy, Tanner, that his team won the tug-of-war twice.  (not the peace sign which is very common in pictures among the Japanese)
Here is Tatum cheering on her brother.

Got to strut my stuff

Walk along Araha Beach

We had a nice evening walking along Araha Beach.  The weather was beautiful and Tayson had fun riding his scooter.  

(I swear I'm in my green shirt every time we take pictures.  I really don't wear it ever day even though it seems like it)
