vacation - part 1

We have lots of photos to share from our vacation! We went to Tokyo, Sydney and Cairns, so I'll break up the blog posts over the next week or so..

Here is the first installment - after spending two days in downtown Tokyo, the girls and I stayed with some friends I've known more than 10 years now.. We had a great time, though the girls were sick (as they were for the entire trip). My friends' two daughters actually took a day off school so they could spend time with the babies!

Here is the welcome banner the girls made for us!

Toru has fun with Kayla


Ran playing with Kayla and Makenna... you may notice that Makenna isn't in many of these. She was very clingy during our stay here and only wanted Mama for the most part.. But she did have fun, I promise!
