Vacation!

We are on vacation!
We've been having some fun these days.
We went to the theater to see a festival dedicated to the Japanese Immigration in Brazil. You used to love watching the 'taiko' presentations. So you were the photographer of the day and took all the pictures. You wanted to invite all your friends to watch it too so that they could learn something about Japanese culture. Even though people would bother you sometimes calling you 'japonesa', which you didn't like, you were proud of being a Japanese girl. :)


We went to Marilia where our family lives and you got to see all of your cousins and could stay over their houses for some days. You had been asking me that for a long time. You guys went to Garça for a picnic by the lake.
We watched two movies at the theater 'Kung Fu Panda' and Wall-E' and saw a nice play called 'O Papagaio Real'.
Back to Jau we went to say goodbye to your friend Luciana. She moved to Ribeirao Preto and we were both sad because her mom used to be mom's friend as well.
Today we went to the park to fly Leo's kite. It was very windy and we were all happy seeing it up there in the air.

All about Marie

Yesterday something very interesting happened. We were leaving the grocery store and this boy told us there was a kitty under our car. We looked for it and found nothing. Then he said we should look inside the engine otherwise the cat would end up dying there. I tried to get it open and couldn't (women...) so this man came to help me and we looked inside and I saw no different moviment there. Then Leo said 'oh I see "uma coisinha peluda"! and there she was, sleeping in peace.
You grabbed it from the man's hands and said we had to bring her home. I guess she chose us so I had to agree with you. Now we have a cat and a dog in the house. I don't particularly like cats but who am I to choose something? Kids rule!!! :)

Then you prepared a box for her using a milk cardboard, a blanket, dog's food :) and a toy. She appears to have enjoyed it. You named it Marie.

Festa Junina - Porto Alvorada - 2008

Last Friday you had another Festa Junina at Porto Alvorada, your school. You dressed like a cowgirl and danced with your classmates (I couldn't film very well because you were hidding behind your friends but you surely looked very cute.
Here are some of your friends: Ana Camila, Talia, Maria Alice and Lara.

For me you were the most beautiful girl there but people might say I'm just a proud mom. :)


You wanted to take a picture with your teacher and her daughter who was dressed for the occasion as well.


Here is your dance.
