Happy Thanksgiving!!

I can't believe that we have been in Japan now for 1 year! This was our second Thanksgiving in Japan and it was so fun!


Myles class had a Thanksgiving play and he was the Minister.

The Bartons invited us to their house for Thanksgiving Dinner and the rented a bouncy house for the kids.
These were the centerpieces that we made for the tables.
(thanks mom for teaching me one of your talents)

A cheesecake that I made for dessert.

All of the yummy desserts!


All the Men
(Mike, Jake, Cade, Nate, Bryce)

All the Ladies
(Alisha, Mikal, Jeannie, Nikole, Me and Austin)
All of us!
We are so very blessed to have so many great friends here in Japan that it was more like being with family!!

Trick or Treat


This was our first Halloween in Japan. It was a quiet Halloween but we still had a great time!



Halloween cupcakes
Spider Turtle cake
The Mario Bros!!
Trunk or Treat at the church

The kids put on a rock concert at the Barton's house and it was so funny to see the Japanese families sit there for 20 minutes listening to them sing Taylor Swift!!
