Soon will be the Two year Anniversary of 3/11/11 Please support the making of this documentary by Chris Noland: Surviving Japan 日本を存続：ドキュメンタリーは、近日

Surviving Japan DVD arrival!

What have we been DOING?!!

It's been a while.
Staying inside, with a fire in the fireplace.
The rain stopped.
I've heard we really need more.
It looks like our well ran out of water.
At our house we didn't have water for two days.
But maybe it was just the old equipment.
We have water again...

Speaking of water.... I wanted to get this documentary shown.

For the Two Year Anniversary of 3/11/11 of the tsunami, earthquakes and nuclear power plant problems that continue still.

Can you view this on our blog? I hope so... I'll keep trying if you can't.

2013 is HERE!

We had to go get firewood for the holidays...

The guy loading the wood for us was in a nice and festive way!

True, it was his last day of work before his holidays began too.

Inside...

There were still some Christmas trees~

For my birthday on the 23rd!!!

We went to the opening night of the Santa Cruz Warriors!!! SOLD OUT and SOOO much fun!! 

Zen's team mate-house mate Jai was with us for the holidays too!!!

Check out the tat!!! 

Yes, Warriors won the opening game.

 Alot of sitting by the fire at home.

A last batch of homegrown pumpkin soup~

And after Christmas, MOM CAME! Mimi-chan!

New Year's... Taka, Mom and I got to spend 

 

with Grandmom, Uncle Lynn and Lorraine

It was totally a very short trip, but oh so sweet! We got a gorgeous little dose of one another!

See Grandmom with the great-grandkids?! Zen, Naomi and Sheon.

This photo of them is at Grandmom's house.

And then we got to have Zen's housemate-teammate with us for Christmas~ he didn't go home to Colorado so we got him! Our Christmas tree looks so little next to him!

Sheon got this beutifully cute headress! Head-scarf! With PAWS!

And Zen designed this package of new shoes for Taka. I love the design more than the shoes inside!!!

Morning brunch was how we also celebrated.

Waffles, whipped cream and fruit, bagels with cream cheese and capers, bacon and eggs, and not to forget the champagne and orange juice!  Then naps for all of us! No snow- but lots of LOVE!
