Is it Friday yet?

It's been quite a week!  Last weekend was the Fresno Cobra's annual basketball tournament.  It was Kara's first year playing in the instructional division.  She had two games on Saturday and one game on Sunday.  They decided to split the team up into two teams of five, so with only five players on the team, she got lots of playing time!

Sho helped Coach Danny with practices and coaching during the tournament.  What better way is there to spend Father's Day...

Monday started the beginning of a two week session of Medaka no Gakko, the Japanese cultural school that Grandma started back in 1980.  Our family all went through gakko back in the day and it was always fun to be with our friends.

Kara has a small class, but I think it's really cool that two of the kids in her class are the children of kids that were in my gakko class...

With warmer weather and a really busy week, it was great to end with shave ice as our gakko snack. 

Though there has been a lot of reminiscing this week about the old days, one thing we do not miss is the hand-crank shave ice machine.  How did our super-dads do it back then??

What is becoming more and more apparent to me is that Grandma has always been a super-mom.  Being more involved in gakko this year, I have a better appreciation of what she did during our gakko years and maybe you notice there are no pictures of Ben and Jason from this week... as we've been busy, Grandma has saved the day (or week to be more accurate) by watching the boys day after day.  I don't know how we'd survive if it wasn't for our BF.  One more week to go!
