Elijah's 5th Birthday Party in Japan!!

Elijah's 5th birthday party was a blast. We rented a pavillion at Murek park on Kadena Air Force Base, rented a giant bouncie, had water guns, lots of bubbles, pinata, food, cake, goodie bags, sand pit, and lots of fun! I have to give credit to the following people for helping us out:
Jennifer: mac and cheese
Lorelei: pasta salad
Staci: bean and corn salad and utensil holder
Mark: helping with bouncie and entire party set up, cooking, and a great after party!!

Tori Beach

Tori Beach has been a fun place for us to go to lately...festival, swimming, slides, Sebastian's birthday party, staying at the cabins....I know we will go back many, many more times too!

The cabin we stayed in:

Elijah hesitated at first, but had a blast when he went down!
