I have yet some more pictures from Saturday's activities. They are on my Picasa site.

Enjoy.

Free Family pre-Thanksgiving dinner and Testimony

Diana and Melinda drove up to Utah to move Melinda in to her new digs. Joseph was able to come down from Rexburg with his Uncle Kirt and Aunt Brenda and surprise them. They had a great time. They spent the night in Paragonah on the way up and got to see the new trailer and John and Jen and gang. Then they moved Melinda in and had a party with the other free gangs up there. Then Sunday night they were with the Jamison cousins. Here are the pictures.

Here are some pictures taken of Matt and Chiaki's gang as they visited with family and made memories. I'm not sure all that happened so I will post the pictures and encourage them to provide comments on the pictures.

on our vacation to nara we went fishing! me and kent were the only ones who caught a fish!! I caught a red snapper. I'm sure anna and kent will post some phtos to about it.

Here is the group picture from Grandpa's camera. Many more pictures to come. It was loads of fun!

Kent was able to prepare his own testimony without help. Look at that proud smile on dads face! Kent made all of us proud!

The witnesses had to go into the water. They got soaked!

I found this eel on our walk down the side of the beach. We thought it had died by being washed up on to the shore, But we found a dead fish poking out of his mouth. It looks like it choked on the fish.

I have big News! This morning when we were getting ready to go to school, when I saw this white thing lined up against the wall of the cage with all of his marbles that kent had put in for him to play with. I thought that it was a chocolate covered almond at first, but when I picked it up I found out that it was an egg. I couldn't believe it at first but it so happens to be true. So the MANLY bird happens to be the GIRLY bird.

The teeny tiny egg that Peeckaboo layed. She wasn't with a male so there isn't a baby inside.

Look at the tiny yolk! I've compared it with my finger.

this is a giant lamp that they have in a japanese temple. we walked around and took a few pictures. this is one of them.

This is the picture of the bottom of a big lamp in japan.

This is a building we found across the street from one of our favorite cheap restaurants. I had the kids line up in front so you could see how skinny it really is. People actually live there! You can see the satelite dish on one of the balconies. This buildling is only 3 kids wide.
I couldnt fit it all in one shot, so I had to combine 2 shots in photo shop. Astute viewers will be able to find the line where I combined them, you can tell because the perspective changes.

Me and erika painted this at my grandpas house with water proof paint. the Amazing thing is he uses it!
