Birthday party!

Yesterday we met at the grandparent's house and had a birthday party for those family members (me included!) that have their birthday in September. Noriko (kaa-san's sister and mother of Chihiro) had her birthday most recently. Madoka will be on her one month exchange to Germany when she has hers this month and since that also means she won't be here for mine... well, it's a lovely excuse for a party! We had lots of wonderful Japanese food, delicious cake and sang the English birthday song eith three names! XD (There's no Japanese birthday song, so they sing it in Engrish instead.) Madoka also gave me my birthday present (so nice of her!), but I haven't opened it yet.

Everyone in front of my camera set on self-timer :D


Food, glorious food~

I also found something that made me very bikurishta (surprised) - a Japanese children's book with a title under the Japanese one. This subtitle read"Pappaen som ikke fant veien hjem" (The dad who didn't find his way home"). Yes - it was Norwegian! Everything inside was in Japanese, but I borrowed it to see if I'll be able to understand it. Hurrah!
