A birthday party!

Just like most other Saturdays, we slept in today until about 9:30am... because it was the weekend, of course we took our time getting up, dressing, eating, etc. At around 11:40, Erin, Priscilla and I went to Dole Theatre to see a movie... a movie I'm not going to mention here because I don't want all the kids watching it.

Dole Theatre was nice because they had digital sound, but the seats were not the most comfortable ones around... Ward Theatres' seats are better, I think.

We got home in the afternoon and relaxed for a few hours at home. At around 5:30pm, all of us drove to Joe & Mercy's house (Joe is the church drummer) for their little girl Kaila's birthday party! They live in a house at the side of a very steep hill... the view was really nice from up there!

At the party, where were Joe's family, the four of us, Nick & Heather's family, and a few neighbors. There were four busy little girls who kept playing around, so we were never bored! We all played with them a lot.


Kaila's birthday cake, made especially for her by her mom! That's Nika (left) and Kaila (right) together... Nika did not seem to get that the whole party was for Kaila. LOL They were still having so much fun!

The dinner was really good, and so were the cakes! Joe's family is really cute and funny, and we just couldn't stop laughing when they got out two huge rubber, air-filled balls... the father and the girls were throwing those balls at each other! That's something we wouldn't normally see in Japanese families! LOL

After we had lots and lots of good time together, we came back home. After all that laughing, I'm pretty knackered! Off to bed now... tomorrow is Sunday! :)
