Out On The Boat

Went to the lake and rented a paddle boat. It was very hot that day, we all had a pretty good sweat.

湖に行って、ペダルボートを借りたんだ。でも、その日はとても暑くて、汗をかきながら漕いでいたお父さんとお母さん。




Tiara just enjoyed the scenery, animals, ate our snacks and drank our XS.

おやつ、飲み物、動物達、そして景色を只単に楽しんでいたティアラ華蓮。

Butterfly Show

This years theme for the butterfly show was Butterflies of Japan, we were all excited to see it.

『日本』がテーマの今年の蝶々展。皆、凄く楽しみにして見に行ったんだ。






Tiara was scared of the butterflies, she didn't let go of us. Funny though, when they would come near us she would say, "They're not going to hurt you." But then when they would land on her she would start crying, priceless.

蝶々を恐がって抱っこされっぱなしのティアラ華蓮。でもおかしいのが、蝶々が近寄ってくる度に、『蝶々は誰も傷つけたりしないよ。』と言う割には、実際に蝶々が少しでも触るとすぐに泣き出していた彼女。





Because she was so scared of the butterflies it was impossible for her to pose for a picture. It wasn't until we left the observatory that she became herself sanguine self again and posed.

蝶々が恐かった為、写真撮影にも応じてくれなかったティアラ華蓮。蝶々園を出次第、自分を取り戻し、再びいつものお茶目さを出してくれた彼女。

Getting Together with Tyler

We got invited to see Tyler's new house.

タイラーの新しいお家に招待されたんだ。


After supper having a movie night with Tyler in his tent...

お食事の後、タイラーのテントにて映画会・・・・


...and some popcorn.

・・・・そしてポップコーンも忘れずにね。



Because we were watching UFC, Tyler wanted to fight like on TV. So he took his shirt off and started to fight and Tiara had to do the same.

皆でUFCを見ていたので、本物のファイターのようにシャツを脱ぎ、戦い始めたタイラー。もちろん、ティアラ華蓮も同じことをしなきゃ気が済まないんだよね。笑

New Dance Move

Tiara learned that this dance move can be used for fast or slow songs. It's too CUTE and she likes to watch herself in the mirror.

新しいダンスの動きを覚えたティアラ華蓮。この動きは、テンポが速い音楽にも遅い音楽にも適用出来ると学んだ彼女自身。あまりにも可愛すぎて、自分の踊りを鏡でチェックしているのがまた可愛い。

Flash Flooding

This is our driveway before a pouring rain started.

大雨が降り始める前のドライブウェイ。



And this is about a half our later, it is underwater and is flowing like a river.

そして、これが約30分後の写真。そこに川が流れている状態になっている。


This is where our future patio is going, but with all the rain we have been having we don't know when...

近い将来、ここは裏のベランダになる予定だが、雨が降り続く中、いつになることやら・・・・


This is the creek beside our house after the rain.

大雨の後のお家の側を流れる小川。

Walking in the Woods

Our backyard.

私達の裏庭。








We are surrounded by woods which means there is lots of stuff to burn. Daddy's new hobby.

新しいお家は森林に囲まれている為、燃やせる物が盛り沢山。お父さんの新しい趣味なんだって。

What a Beautiful Smile

I love Oreo's!

オレオ、だ~ぁい好き!



Who couldn't love that smile?

この笑顔に文句は言えないでしょ?

So yummy!

超~おいしッ!

Fun at the Zoo ~Part ⅱ~

We had a good time at the zoo for mothers day.

母の日に、また動物園に行って来たよ。




I climbed any fence I could.

全ての策に登りたかった私。





Note the sign says "do not tap the glass" no worries there becuase TT smacks the glass.

グラス上の注意事項に、『グラスを突かないで』って書かれているんだけど、私は逆に叩いていたから心配ないね。(笑)

Being like mommy.

お母さんになったつもり。




Out of the entire zoo all she wanted to see was the zebras. We passed them several times and didn't even know it. At last we found them.

動物園にいる動物の中で、一番シマウマを見たがっていたティアラ華蓮。何回もそこを素通りしていた私達だが、やっとのことで見つけることが出来たよ。

She very much wanted to pet one so she started bossing the zebra around.

とても触りたくてしょうがなくて、命令形に話しかけるティアラ華蓮。
