Japan Day Two

We went to Tokyo Disney today and had a fabulous time.  The resort has two parks - Disneyland and DisneySea.  Since we have Disneyland at home, we decided to check out DisneySea, which is completely different than any other Disney park.

The whole park is gorgeous and the theming is so clever.  Each "land" has to do with water.  Here is the view looking at Mysterious Island:

Japan Day One

We had a great first day in Tokyo today.  We started at the Tsujiki fish market for a sushi breakfast:

Even Brack enjoyed the fresh fish:

We toured the Hama Rikyu Garden after breakfast, which was a retreat of Japan's leaders during the Edo period.

James and Ashley's Wedding

We traveled to the Phoenix area this past weekend for Jenn's cousin, James' wedding to Ashley.  Blair loved posing before the ceremony.

We got one decent family shot (with Duckie and Big Bird of course):

The cupcakes were a hit (and you can see Will's cute tie here):

Blair's First Day!

Blair starts her second year of preschool this morning.  She is all ready to go!

Knotts Trip

We took the kids out to Knott's Berry Farm while Aunt Laura was in town. It was very hot but the kids had a ball. We got to meet Snoopy first. 

 Blair was not feeling the log ride at first but ended up loving it. 

As always, they love carousels. 

Will met Peppermint Patty.
