Saturday morning was spent reading and relaxing at Whole Foods! After dropping off the kids at Japanese school, I have a few hours to just hang out, so that’s exactly what I did!

Photos/images that I have made. Sometimes with a description, sometimes just the photo.

Today Koa had a flag football game, and it was cooooold! At gametime it was only 55ºF and drizzly. To make matters worse, there was a decent wind as well. But once the game got going I think the kids forgot about the cold and just had a lot of fun. It helped that Koa’s team did great, and won by a score of about 21-6. I say “about” because I can never remember if they make the extra points or not. But Koa did fantastic, with a great run almost for a touchdown, and then catching the touchdown pass two plays later!

The photo above shows a pretty nice umbrella shelter from the wind. I wish I had one of those! Below is a photo of the team huddle after the game. Koa really enjoys playing sports and is thinking of trying baseball this year sometime. I think he’ll do pretty good!


I love using graph paper notebooks, but the problem is that the graph lines are usually too dark or too thick. I found this notebook at Muji in Los Angeles and it is perfect! Instead of lines, it has faint dots in a grid pattern. It is excellent! I kind of wish I bought a few more of them.
