I had a birthday

Last Friday was my 36th birthday. Woohoo! Happy birthday to me! We had a pretty relaxed day. I was happy to get Mario Kart for our Wii as a gift along with some clothes. Ken was a bit fussy through the day, but we had a nice day all the same. On that day we noticed that the house that is now finally getting built across the way from us was erecting it's roof and it looked like there may be a tatemae (rice cake throwing function). So we all went on over and got about 40 rice cakes- score!
By the end of the day's building the house had a shell. That very morning, there was only a cement foundation.
That night we had plans to have dinner with Trevor and Miyuki from Vancouver who were here to have a wedding party - along with Chris and Aki. We went to one of the nice Italian restaurants in Hamakita, Capelini. It was a great meal and a great time talking.
Before, I actually had actualy met Trevor a few times only, and we were able to have a great chat that night. Good guy. In the end we got this nice family shot. Ken was pretty good in the restaurant but needed to be held most of the time there. It was a nice birthday...
