Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Christmas is so much fun with a 3 year old. Ronan's Aunt Rebecca and Uncle Peter sent him quite a few packages, so Josh and I were able to be genuinely excited about some of his gifts not knowing what they were ahead of time. Ronan loves Leggos. And Transformers. And any toy that makes noises. He got Edward from the Thomas the Tank Engine wooden railway series. Thank you Cookie, since every toy he picked up and shook before Christmas, he guessed it was a train and I had not bought him one.
New Years was spent with friends from Japan. It was nice to experience another's culture and traditions. It is customary for the Japanese to eat noodles at midnight, unfortunately, we did not make it to the 12:00 hour. We are old farts.
We look forward to another wonderful year in Japan.
Cheers/Happy New Year!
