Lots of catching up to do

Sachiyo's computer got a nasty virus so we've been down to one computer and I haven't been able to get the pictures downloaded for a while so the next few posts are my attempt to catch up. Here is the low down on the last few months.

Dan got his night SAR pilot certification. Still working as the Ward Mission Leader.

Sachiyo started a Master's Tax class for her accounting. She must have been bored with all that free time. She also got called to be the Young Women's secretary.

Dan and Sachiyo celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary.

A trip to Sea World and the Zoo.

Sion and Hana have both learned to roll over both ways and started inching around.

Lots of wet and dirty diapers.

Tate finished pre-school (We immediatly found a babysitter to help Sachiyo a couple times a week).

We've purchased Mother's Day gifts for both mothers that are still sitting in our house.

Dan and Tate went on a Fathers and Sons campout.

A lot of swimming for Tate.

and a lot of other things I am sure that I am forgetting.

Enough of the typing, here are the pictures.



Sion and Hana at the Hotel in San Diego



Tate holding a sea star (no longer allowed to call them starfish...they aren't fish) at Sea World

Tate playing in the Sesame Street play area at Sea World



Tate and Dad in the 'Spin and Puke' at Sea World



Tate beat dad at the Shamu game so he got the Shamu



Sion (white/yellow....the clothes) and Hana looking cute



Tate's drawing of his sisters (I don't know which is which...take your pick)



Hana being independent



You can't fall asleep on the floor when your kids know how to crawl

Hana will never live this down...I'm sure her future love interests will enjoy this picture



The girls....plotting (Sion on left, Hana on right)


I am really hoping it is a camera trick and that she really didn't inherit Grandpa's eyebrows...please!

Sometimes the kids just have to make due. (Hana)




Sion's favorite position, on her side. It lets her see everything.

The family is so cute! I can't believe the girls are already turning and inching around. They are getting big fast

So cute. And I hope you're right about the eyebrows, though any good stylist can fix that for you if it comes down to it.

So, who puked in the spin and puke?

Well, no one actually puked, but it was fun watching Tate try to climb out of the ride and walk in a straight line.
