Attention!

This just cracks me up! Attention!!!!! But I can't read the rest...

False Advertising!

This wasn't even close to what the packaging showed!

Yakiniku King!

Last Friday, Alex and I went to our favorite meat place where you grill your own meat. Yes, we are also grilling corn!

Lightning and Thunder Madness

On Wednesday of last week we had some thunderstorms roll through and it was an experience like never before. The lightning shut down our computer twice and knocked out the internet. I can't ever remember having lightning and thunder happen simultaneously. We could even smell burning in the air. Luckily, everything is back to normal now.

The shaking in the video is Alex and I grabbing onto each other because it scared us so badly.

I got a nice shot of a lightning bolt but I can't believe I stopped the video right when it happened.

The Ear Doctor

When Rachel was young she always seemed to get ear infections when she was sick. We started taking her to the ear doctor who gave her medicine to try to heal her. When that didn't work, he would slice her eardrum to relieve the pressure. It was a horrible experience for her and for us. I used to have to hold her down as the doctor would put the knife down her ear and slice the eardrum. She would call the doctor "idiot" in Japanese and cry out for the Japanese character Anpan Man to come and save her. We took a trip to Singapore to visit Joanna's brother and family and sure enough she got an ear infection. We took her to the doctor and she immediately threw a tantrum. The doctor took us into his office and questioned us as to why she seemed so traumatized. We explained our situation in Japan and he understood and told us not to go to the clinic anymore and that we should look into putting tubes in her ears. We eventually took her to Tokyo and had tubes put in which solved the problem.

Joanna and I were walking near downtown when we passed the familiar sign. Yes, the ear doctor's office. I got chills as we passed by. Never again.

Alex and Adam did a great job with this one!
