Yay Japan



1.  Cool thing in Little Tokyo

2.  Our cute Nephew

3.  Ella and her new favorite toy, Kiki, and her crazy smile.


Yesterday we set off for a Japan themed day with Nick and Paul.  We met at their house and went down to Little Tokyo and had a delicious lunch.  Shelley and I got some really good sushi, and Ella had the Orange Chicken, and then ate a lot of Nick's noodles.  We had gotten a lot of treats from Trader Joe's before we went down and we had the following things covered in chocolate;  peanut butter pretzels, macadamia nuts and edamame.  The edamame was kind of weird, but everything else was great.  After that we went to see an exhibit of Takashi Murakami, a Japanese artist, at the Geffen Contemporary.  There was a lot of cool things that Ella really like a lot.   The artist did a lot of commercial stuff too, and we bought a stuffed animal for Ella, it's pink with three eyes and fangs.  She likes it a lot.  Afterward we went to a parenting seminar at Shooting Stars, which was very interesting.  Pictures are up on Picasa.

I concur: Nick and Paul=fun. Toy=creepy.
But fun creepy, not creepy like moldy old china doll creepy.
