みんな秀おにいちゃんのイナバウワーを見て笑うけど、ぼくは本当にすごいと思ったんだ。

がんばれ、ニイチャン！お誕生日おめでとう！

Everyone laughs at him when he does that, but I think hes great.

Go Shu!!! Happy Birthday!!!

Lindsay and Takeshi’s Wedding… in Kagawa!

We are back from an exhausting (but fun!) trip to Kagawa where we got to see a number of good friends and colleagues. We miss Kagawa and everyone there very much! Thank you so much for making the time to hang out with us everyone!! (except those of you who dragged me into the freezing cold ocean in the middle of winter. you know who you are. actually… that was a lot of fun but sucky in the I thought I was going to die kind of way.)

A big part of our trip to Kagawa was to go see our friends Lindsay and Takeshi get married! Congratulations!!!

It was there that Noa was reunited with Jim, and performed live on stage with Jim’s band LAME (which despite all that I was expecting… which was nothing… turned out to be pretty good!) [I will get a hair cut, calm down.]

Noa’s Diary #6: My invention

IMG_2989

IMG_2984今日はぼくの大発明を紹介しまちゅ。ママがティッシュの空き箱を２つくれたので、ティッシュ箱シューズを作ってはいてみまちた。とってもおもちろいでちゅ。でもすぐにこわれてしまったので、１日しか遊べませんでちた。残念。

Today I will tell you about my invention. Mommy gave me 2 empty tissue boxes, so I made tissue box shoes. I am so funny (ed: and clever). They broke too soon and I was only able to play with them for one day.
