I know I have way more interesting pictures to post (Brant's trip in the jungle, the new house, our new cat) but I figured I'd start somewhere and these are good lazy pictures on a Friday night while the boys are watching Veggie Tales. (And give me a good feel for how long it takes to upload photos on dial-up speed internet!)
On the plane... we flew Singapore Airlines for the first time and I hope we never fly another airline. ever. Was amazing. Actually good food (Haagen Dazs for dessert!) Toys for the boys. Free! snack bar in the back with fresh fruit and Hershey's and granola bars and chips and you could get snacks whenever you wanted.

Japan is always the low point in the trip. Two in the morning and totally exhausted...
But we made it back to the land of no car seats! Look at those smiles after being strapped down for 9 months. :) (Those are our teammates' kiddos.)
Ezra celebrated his 4th birthday just a couple days after we got back...
We celebrated by taking a team trip to the video arcade. I love arcades here - they are way loud and annoying, but all the games cost about 15 cents, which means hours of cheap entertainment. :) Here are all the team kiddos in front of the machine where one of the boys won the grand prize - 1000 tickets! It was pretty cool to see them all come out.... I tell you, from a 7 year old boy perspective, it doesn't get any better. :)
