Andrew's Band Concert

Today was Andrew's spring band concert. The 6th grade band played Constellation, Gentle Winds, Arrival at Normandy, and Achievement. It was fun watching him up close play the trombone. I was super impressed by how well this beginning band sounded after having only played for 8 months.

It was a very windy day so we headed over the zipline park to fly kites. We had just bought the girls two new kites and they were super excited to try them out. Much to their dismay, flying kites was harder than they thought. We did have some success but even so, Abby preferred to fly her kite little kid style by running around with the kite only 5 feet out on the string.

It has been fun being part of the Yokosuka Ward. I was in charge of taking a photo of all the members of our ward that were at church today.  I took the photo in the park across the street from the building where we have church and it was super windy.  Not everyone was there but this is about how big our ward is on a weekly basis when the ships are out to sea.

Abby has been taking swimming lessons and she has become more confident in the water. Her favorite thing is jumping in the water from the edge of the pool. She even surprised me by jumping off the diving board to her instructor.

This is the best time of the year in Japan because there are cherry blossom trees EVERYWHERE. I can't ever get enough of their beauty. Even in our little town of Shonantakatori the streets along the Seiyu are lined with beautiful cherry blossom trees. We are lucky to live so close to all these beautiful trees. The kids have really enjoyed playing under the canopy of the cherry blossoms in the park across the street from our house.
