Spring is here, time for festivals.

Last weekend we went to two festivals, the Sannohe festival on Saturday and the Ohno festival on Sunday. We had a blast. Below are some photos of our adventures. Both days were beautiful. In the two years I have been here I think this is the first weekend to have both Saturday and Sunday beautiful. It was absolutely amazing. I am really enjoying our time in Japan, especially now that the snow has melted. I think a couple days of good food and sunshine would make anyone happy. Both days we grilled hamburgers, hotdogs, brats and terryaki chicken wings. We had more food than we could eat. This trip I didn't even try to cook, I brought the meat and some chips and soda, now that is American. Our Japanese friends brought the most amazing food. We all got a little sunburnt, especially Lily, break out the sunblock momma. You can see in the Ohno festival pictures my success at keeping a hat on her.
