Dad, Come Home Soon

Larissa has some fine clothes from her favorite stores back home like Justice, and Limited Two. Cute Stuff that you cannot find here.

Renie is the only tuba player in the band.

Ready for school.

This has been a hectic week with Rene being gone. I know I do most of the running around, but evening functions are getting crazy. Last night was Renie's band concert. He looked so handsome with his dad's tie, which by the way I had to log into U-Tube to learn how to tie a tie. After three times, I finally mastered it. Larissa won Citizen of the Month and received a certificate today. She was dressed for the occasion, but it was a surprise. After a month in a half, my boxes from the states finally arrived. The kids had an early Christmas. Larissa loved all her clothes and shoes. The days here remain a cool 45 in the morning, warming up nicely through the day. School will be wrapping up soon, so the kids remain busy with school work. Renie continues with good grades, however baseball trips around Japan are making his life stressful. He has to hustle to get work done before he leaves. He leaves for Misawa at midnight tonight. They will travel through the night and come home Sunday. I am proud of him for making an effort to keep up with his honors classes and play sports. I don't remember my high school classes being this rigorous. Oh, maybe it was because we didn't have honors classes.
