Time March-es on

Well, March has come and gone without much attempt to blogify it. So here is a summary of our March highlights.






Don and Rumiko had a beautful wedding day and soon after moved to the States.


































The 'church's' newest baby is growing big enough to crawl up the center aisle at church and embarass her father when he is trying to lead song service.



















Our students are faithfully energetic, challenging and VERY entertaining!












We torched a cake in honor of Teishi's birthday...okay, not really but we did make it all a suprise.











We attended our first Japanese elementary graduation ceremony.

There are no words to describe the sound of a couple hundred sniffling parents, children singing sorrowful sayanoras and weeping young boys.
Okay, maybe in Japanese there is ONE word to describe it.


We were able to make two very fun trips to Kagoshima to visit our friends there. This time included an exciting game of Bible pictionary. In fact, you can see the excitement on Jerry's beaming face.




Last, but not least ;), Jeff found a great new slide! It's great fun, very noisy and has a great view, but the warehouse rollway construction is much kinder to boxes than to bottoms. Mary Ellen voted a thumbs down.
