Happy New Year!

We rang in the new year with good friends and had a fantastic meal. Ronan actually stayed up past midnight (thanks to a late afternoon nap). My new years resolution is to NEVER let my hair go 3 years without a good cut and color ever again.

We are headed back to the states. Most likey May. I will miss the friends we have made here, but I am ready to be closer to family and old friends. Japan is a wonderful country and I encourage anyone and everyone to try to see this side of the world. We will cherish our memories. --Cheers, Kristin
