Saturday was Kay's Sport's Day (a.k.a. undoukai)! this is officially her second undoukai in Japan, but it was her last undoukai as a nursery school student, which meant big performances! i unfortunately couldn't go because i work on Saturdays, and you know how i am about work. hubs was able to go with camcorder on his right and our camera on his left...literally ^_^;; so, he was able to get some decent pics and some pretty good footage of Kay's performances and other stuff :)
first of all, the yochien undoukai Kay had two years ago (the 14th was also our 2 year anniversary living in Japan!) wasn't nearly as big as the one held by her current hoikuen. according to hubs, they went all out and EEEVERYBODY came: grandparents, aunts, uncles, moms and dads, etc..! so, that kind of made me feel bad to have missed it, but i've already made up my mind that i'm definitely attending next year when she's a first grader :) hubs also mentioned that he was really impressed at how grand everything was and that if we were living in Yokohama, there was no way a hoikuen's undoukai would be that big! :)
anyway, since i wasn't there, i'll let the pics and videos speak for themselves ^_^
breaking tradition and being unconventional....just another way of saying that mommy was too lazy to make bentos for everyone ^_^;;
now for the videos!!

i didn't see them until i came home at around 6:00 and you should have seen how tan they had gotten just from being out all day that day ^_^;; Kay is now a couple shades darker :P she had a lot of fun and while we were watching the videos together that night, she was dancing along to the whole thing. those teachers that helped all these kids learn these routines are totally awesome!! ^_^ i'm soo proud of my little girl!!
