Last Month in Japan

As many of you know by now, we are preparing to leave Japan.

Both our children were born here and it has been more than 5 years since we have lived anywhere else.

Lots of people to say goodbye to, and things to finish before we go!

WIll update more soon…

Noa’s return to modeling

So the last time we took Noa to a model shoot, he ran around, screamed, cried and ripped up the set. No exaggeration.

It ended with the producers whispering to each other “he is really cute, but I don’t think we can manage him.”

Before we leave Japan (which by the way is happening sooner than later!) Kiko wanted to give him one more shot.

Here are the results:

Other than complaining it was too bright, things went pretty well…! Photo shoot pictures to come later this month, but for now here are some shots taken by Kiko.

Christmas 2009

Yes, I understand this is late. But better late then never, right? … RIGHT?

We have Kiko made Christmas dinner, Kiko made Gingerbread House (amazing!), Kiko made stockings, some girl-on-girl action, some creepy Santa’s (NOT creepy. That is Barry he is great!) and children with lots of presents. What more can you ask for!?!

.. Cute pictures of Hana? Done.
