Christmas this year was spent with grandma and grandpa. Mimi just loves playing Santa. Mama cooked dinner for everyone and brought it to their house. It was just a little too bad that the whole family could not get together this year.Uncle David and Auntie Setsue are in Japan visiting with cousin Mari who took on a job with the JET program that Japan has with the schools there. All of them will/are traveling around Japan visiting with Auntie Setsue's family. She comes from the Miyazaki area while mama's fa
mily comes from the Yokohama/Kamakura area. Someday mama hopes to go back and visit with her family.Cousin Joe is staying back in Maryland with his fiance Nicole. They are planning to get married sometime in September 2008. They are planning a trip to Japan too. Possibly in January or February of next year.
Mama is not writing too much tonight. She came down with a bad cold. Has laryngitis too. T
hat's too bad for her but good for papa.
