been enjoying the sun and fun here in hawaii. took the girls out for some surfing and the waves were perfect for them. we ended up surfing for 3 hours and got some serious sunburn.
look at the girls ankles. the leash tan that you can’t hide.
yes, this is how good the waves were today. fun and uncrowded!
sooooo happy to get photos from Takami-san and Naomi-san on Hiyori-chan’s graduation. this is japanese style and i think it’s awesome.
a pure japanese girl with a gold heart. congratulations Hiyori-chan!
when i first saw this photo, it made me really miss Hiyori-chan. such a beautiful smile just like her mothers. hope to see you all in ishinomaki soon! i really miss you guys!
