January Updates!


January has been cold noses and frozen fingers. Its been long-stressful work days for Riley and weekends we never want to end. Movie marathons, baby name conversations, and evenings swimming at the community pool. Januarys been full of good food, bananagrams, and finishing up one of my new favorite books: "Peter and the Star Catchers." 

 Here's an overload of pictures from this month's trip and other Japan times:

Arashiyama Monkey Park


One of the highlights of Japan has been the Monkey Park! It was pretty incredible being up close with so many monkeys. They were all just hanging out on top of a little mountain top and it started to snow which made the experience even neater. We just walked around them and watched them play and do whatever monkeys do. We got inside a cage and fed them apples too.

Universal Studios Japan


For Christmas, Riley delivered an OWL POST letter to me with a magical surprise: A date to Universal Studios to see Harry Potter World! He wrote a clever poem, that will only make sense if your a fan. It was a great surprise and everything was really magical. 

We ran through the forbidden forest and raced to get a good place in line to see Hogwarts. We rode a hippogriff, drank butterbeer, ate at "The Three Broom Sticks" and at Olivanders it was "my time" to get my first wand. 

It was a fun trip and Universal Studios was fantastic. We spent the whole day exploring the park and I maybe rode a few rollercoasters... lets hope our baby doesn't actually turn out looking like Dobby!
