More Round Table

This past Saturday we went to Globe for our 1st Round Table Gathering for the year. We ate lunch at El Rey's and then sat around and talked story. It was nice seeing everyone and we had a nice time, but I don't know how long these are going to last if I have to go to Globe to see everyone... It was a pretty far drive. If any of the Round Table leaders are reading this, I'm sorry... It's really really far! Anyways, Here are some pictures of Emi's cousins.

Cute, cute Preslee


Preslee and Me


Some of the Allreds (Gary, Rachel, Calvert, and Jack)


Adorable Wyatt and Rebecca


and finally... Emi in pigtails!!! I guess this was a little early to do her hair like that because it kept falling out, but when she had this hairstyle she looked so grown up. She's not a baby anymore... :(

Bath SINK Time

This is Emi in Tennessee taking a bath in my parent's laundry room sink. When I was little my Grandma in Hawaii use to give all her grandkids a bath in her sink and we loved it. I have a picture of me taking a bath there when I was little and I look just like Emi.
So... my mom decided to give her a bath in their laundry room sink because in a regular tub, her butt would slip all over and this way she had more control of Emi. Anyways, she loved it and it was kind of like a mini "ofuro" (Japanese bath tub) for her. So, if you are losing control of your kids in the bathtub, try your laundry sink, it works great and they love it!

The Holidays Are Officially O-V-E-R

Well... I'm finally back in Arizona and am a little sad to be back, but also happy as well. Blaine came back on the 2nd and Emi and I stayed in Tennessee a little longer till the 15th. We were there for a month, so it kind of feels a little weird to be back. I even forgot my address... :)

We spent Christmas and New Years and Rika's (My sister) Birthday there. It was so much fun and it was nice to be spoiled and have my Mom take care of Emi. Thanks Mom! When I go home, I seriously just melt and have my Mom take care of everything. Mother's are the best!

Thank you Mom, Dad, and Rika! We love you. Emi-chan misses you guys!

Above is a picture of all of us at our favorite place, Dollywood. I'm not even from Tennessee and I can't even count on my fingers how many times I have been to that place. Too funny... :)
