Lola and Grandpa!
She wasn't quite sure about his beard at first...neither was I.Lola seeing the cousins
Olivia, Joe and William for the first time in 10 months.
(Olivia was so excited to finally see Lola again.)

Lola getting into Grandma's tupperware drawer!

More pictures of Lola for Sam while we're away from him for the next week.

Huis Ten Bosch
It is a Dutch Village here in Japan. We got season tickets and hope to go back many times this next year. There are a lot of things to look at and a lot of little interesting shops.
("hoss ten bosh")



There were some fun things to see...like this trick art exhibit.
There was also a really cool mirror maze that we weren't allowed to take pictures in but it was awesome.

It had been a while since I'd taken a test like this. I wanted to see what the results would be. Oh and if you didn't already know...my perfect match is an ESTP (Sam of course).

You Are An ISFJ

ISFJ The Nurturer

You have a strong need to belong, and you very loyal.
A good listener, you excel at helping others in practical ways.
In your spare time, you enjoy engaging your senses through art, cooking, and music.
You find it easy to be devoted to one person, who you do special things for.

In love, you express your emotions through actions.
Taking care of someone is how you love them. And you do it well!

At work, you do well in a structured environment. You complete tasks well and on time.
You would make a good interior designer, chef, or child psychologist.

How you see yourself: Competent, dependable, and detail oriented

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Boring, dominant, and stuck in a rut

She's a climber
I had to put the camera down and take her out of this drawer. She had both feet in there with her.


My usual self was having a hard time taking these pictures instead of rescuing her from danger...aren't you proud of me Tara? (I guess she really couldn't have fallen that far.)

(I removed that other picture...it was just to scary for Lola and me.)

What you never thought you'd hear your dentist say...Yesterday morning Sam had a dental appointment on base. He needed a filling removed and refilled. After 45 minutes of shooting and drilling and scraping and packing and numbing and whatever else they do to you at the dentist...he was on his way out of the room when the dentist, who had just been given a large bucket of sweets as a going away gift held it up to Sam and asked, "Do you want some candy?" Sam answered with half of his face asleep, "I better not."

Lola's first Halloween and she already gets it...
"Trick or Treat"
If there ever was a good time to poop in the bathtub it would be on October 31st!
