We had some nice time in the garden and Patricia gave me a tour of her plants.

Yoshi found a shady spot. He’s a shady dog.

Dog likes shade!

We had yummy soba and tempura vegetables at Miki before the concert!

Had soba with my family!

And They Might Be Giants was great, as always.

San Francisco Day 1

Heading out to San Francisco to hang out with my family! My knees have lots of room on planes because I’m short.

My sister’s household has a new member: Yoshi the dog! I got to finally meet him. My sister is his favorite person so he always wants to be next to her.

Yoshi is comfy

We had some sister time at a café sitting in the sun with lattes.

I can’t believe it but this doggie tolerated me enough to sit next to me on the couch!

And we had home-baked pizza for dinner. Yum!

Pizza time!

More hanging with Baby Ash

Yusuke is very good at calming the baby by holding him sideways and making a whisper sound. He almost always quiets right down!

Making the shhh noise

Mommy was dancing with her grandson!

Ash looks at my mom like she’s being a huge goofball.

Mommy, Yusuke, Patricia, Ash, and I went to a café and listened to a cool saxophone/piano duet. Ash didn’t fuss about it at all.
