大好きな秋!もう終わりそうですが、、、いそいで恒例の家族写真を撮りにいきました。今住んでる近所はどこでもきれいなので近くの公園で。写真では紅葉のきれいさが伝えきれないわ。。。
My favorite season!! I really enjoy the color of leaves right now. It became our tradition to take family pictures around this season I guess.

Camp Joseph
バーモントのジョセフスミス生誕地訪問者センターの横にある教会が運営するキャンプ場キャンプジョセフに行ってきました。小さなキャビンに泊まってご飯食べたくらいで何もする時間もなかったんだけど、子どもたちはとっても喜んでいてよかったです。ちょうど紅葉が始まっていて、とってもきれいでした。ただ朝晩とても寒くてマムはずっとガタガタ震えていました。
We went to Camp Joseph near Joseph Smith birth place. It was a very short camp. We didn't do anything special but it's nice to have something different once a while. Kids loved it!! The leaves started changing colors already. It was beautiful.

Fishing 2015
信ちゃんが新しい趣味を始めました。釣り。マサチューセッツで釣りをするには許可証を買わないといけないので数日分買って、集中して釣りしてました。始めの数日はまったくどうしたらいいのかわからなくて一匹も釣れませんでしたが、昨日コツが掴めたらしくその後はいっぱい釣って、けのまで一人で釣れるようになってました。これ以上許可証を買うと年パス買えばよかったということになるからもう今年はおしまい、だそうですが。自然がきれいでリラックスできるとっても良い時間でした。そう思えばここら辺はいっぱい湖や川があってすごくきれいなのにこれまで何もしなかったのがもったいなかったです。ゆりはちょろちょろ忙しくしていると思ったらこのあと湖に落ちました。
Introducing Shin's new hobby, fishing! He bought fishing permit for a few days and went crazy with fishing. At first, he didn't know anything about fishing so got nothing, but yesterday evening he just got a clue. After that, he got so many fish and even Ken knows how to fish now! Way to go! Yuri fell into lake twice, then mom said no more. Boys went fishing alone. It was a good experience to learn the beautiful nature around this area. We've been here three years and almost left without really enjoying yet. It was very relaxing (until Yuri fell) and I loved it.

Dai 10 month old
今日で10ヶ月!早いなあ〜元気に大きくなっています。ベッドから自分で降りたり、伝い歩きしたり高速ハイハイで好き勝手なことしています。なんでも隅から隅まで調査します。最近ハマっていることは手を叩くこと!だいが手を叩くと家族のみんなが手を叩きます。そしてまたやって!というとまた叩いてくれるのです。我が家のアイドルだいくんです。そうそう、新しいアパートに引っ越してもう3週間も経ちますが、みんな元気にやっています。電子ピアノやカウチも増えて、ますます我が家感が増えました。今日も家族で暮らせることに感謝♡
He turns 10 month old today. He can do a lot of things like he can clap, pick up cheerios and feed himself, stand for 5 seconds and walk with holding on something. He is especially very proud of clapping. When we say do it again, he does it with smile. His crawl is super fast! He is very cute and always curious. We adore him. He is an idol in his family!

Point Pelee National Park
金曜まで新しいアパートに入れないことになっていたので、時間をつぶすためにデトロイトからカナダに入って、トロントに寄ってナイアガラからアメリカに戻るルートで帰ってきました。というわけで水曜日はカナダの最南端ポイントピレー国立公園に行ってきました。久しぶりのビーチ!泳げなかったけど、きれいなところで、平たくて丸い石を拾ったりハイキングしてとても楽しかったです。アイスを餌にゆりをたくさん歩かせました!(左下はカナダに来た第一目的、KFCのジンガーバーガーをほおばる信ちゃん)
Our route after St. Louise was Indianapolis~Detroit~Point Pelee~Toronto~Niagara~Home!! I know it was a lot to see!! Unlike on the way to Texas, Shin made sure to drive less than 5 hours everyday so that kids don't get tired. We came home safely with energy to move into new home:) Anyway, Point Pelee was beautiful. We loved it! It is a nice small park with a lot to see, but not too much. We did two of half mile hike. Even Yuri could walk most part (with reward of popsicle). Shin was longing to go to Canada for KFC's Zinger Burger! He ate two at one visit and got satisfied.

St. Louise Zoo
土曜日にテキサスを出て、ミズーリを通って帰ることにしました。というのも、アメリカでナンバー1を謳ったセントルイス動物園に行ってみたかったので!ゆりは動物園が初めて!どの動物見ても興奮して大騒ぎでした。親としては来てよかったなあ〜とうれしかったです。すごく広くってたくさん動物がいて、なにせ入場料タダだし!とってもいい動物園でした◎
We said byebye to Texas and went on our way back to Massachusetts on Saturday. We stopped by to see a couple of friends and it was great. On Monday, we went to St. Louise Zoo! They said it was the best zoo in US and free admission definitely helped me to decide this visit. It was the first experience for Yuri. She was SO excited!! All animals made her scream (for excitement). I'm so glad that we made it!

Life with kids
元気な子どもたち。見よ、ゆりのスマイル×だいの涙。ゆりが泣かせたかどうかちょっと覚えてない。だいは大抵泣いています。だっこしてほしくて。この前すごくいい席でサッカー観戦できる機会がありました!が、ついた途端けのが咳をし始め、試合開始と同時に吐いた!!ゆりは開始と得点時に上がる花火に怯えていたしで5分で退散。うーーーん、残念だったなあ。。まあこれが子どものいる人生。試合はまたいつか。。。
We got to go to the soccer game last week! The seat was very good and close to the field. I was so excited! But, Ken started coughing as soon as we got there... and he puked as soon as the game started. So basically, I left stadium in 5 minutes after kick off. So SAD. Yuri was so frightened by fire works they did before game and every time they score that she wanted to leave too. Well, that's a life with kids. I LOVE MY KIDS! I do.

One evening
最近あんまり写真撮ってなかったなと思ってふと撮ってみた。抱っこ抱っこのだいもだんだんごそごそし始めましたよ〜。目を離すとえ〜〜〜ってなことをしていたり。足腰も丈夫になって1秒くらい一人で立てます。大きな大くん!

Train Ride to Klyde Warren Park
電車でダラスの中心にある公園に行ってみました。車の二倍も時間がかかって1時間も電車の中にいたんだけど、あっという間に感じました。けのがすごくよろこんでくれて、よかった!公園もすごくよくて、子どもたちの喜ぶような遊具や水場があってにぎわっていました。ゆにとけのも仲良く遊びました。帰りは疲れてお母さんは電車でうとうと。けのはそれでも話しかけてましたが。まだ時間があったのでモールで遊んでアイスカチャン食べて帰りました。
While Shin was gone for conference, we took train to Klyde Warren Park in downtown Dallas. It took almost 2 hours to get there but didn't feel like it. Ken still loves train and he was totally excited. On the way back, my mom was so tired and fell asleep but Ken talked to her anyway. She woke up and answered every time Ken spoke then went back to sleep. Yap! That's one of my mom's talent! She can sleep any time, anywhere, any minutes!
