Jeff, Shino, Saya, Meisa and Reia: Japanese School and Bug a Boo

On Saturday we headed off to Japanese school. Saya was more eager to go into her classroom than before but was a bit whiny and didn't want to sit down during storytime. But somehow she got herself together and interacted with other kids, played outside and of course did her craft and had snacks. We then rushed out the door and stopped by the dog store to get some new food for Ry and Bell. When we got home we showed daddy our craft from school and then had some lunch. After lunch Saya went down for her nap and then around 3 thirty we woke her up to take her to Bug a Boo at the Butterfly Pavilion. It wasn't all that we thought it would be but daddy got to spend time with Saya at the Butterfly Pavilion which he hasn't gotten to do in a while, so it was great. We did all the games and looked at the creepy crawlies and then headed into the sea creatures and butterflies. We had a very hard time trying to keep Saya from seeing everybody holding and catching butterflies. We have been to the Butterfly Pavilion so we know that it shortens their lifespan if we hold them due to the oils on our skin, but others didn't so Saya wanted so badly to hold one as well. We felt bad but it's the right thing to do. But then we headed into the craft area and Saya got to pet a cockaroach, color a butterfly, get some cotton candy and also decorate a pumpkin. We then headed outside to the nature path area since it smelled like armpits in the room. Saya loved the flowing river and all the trails. We even saw a beaver dam. Saya ran all over the place hopefully releasing all the suger out of her body before we headed home. We got home just in time for dinner and had salmon burgers. Then we froze some animals in some water before sticking them in the freezer. Then we headed outside to see all the Halloween decorations again. One of our neighbors across the street went all out and was in the process of putting up decorations so of course we had to go and see that. When we got home Saya was beat and it was time for bed.

Gotta love Hello Kitty. Saya got her dress from her auntie Julie. We love it! We also got her a pair of jeggings which we LOVE!

It was really hot inside so mommy took Saya's dress off but noticed a huge stain on her undershirt. A bit embarassing but at least she was cool. Saya was really interested in craft time.
