This weekend was filled once again with fun adventures with the Kumamoto Family. On Saturday, Cori performed her traditional Japanese Odori dance at the Cupertino Cherry Blossom Festival. While the boys waited for Cori to perform, we walked around and enjoyed the food and festivities. On Sunday, Cori performed at the San Jose Japantown Nikkei Matsuri Festival. Once again, while we waited for Cori to perform...we walked around and ate.....I think I gained 10 lbs on great Japanese food this weekend. The bonus was, we got to stay at Renee's brother, George's house with Joanne and cousins Kayla and Kesley. Justin loves to hang with his cousins so he had an extra good weekend!
