Monday in Makuhari.

So, we needed to switch our license plate over to the city we live now, versus the city we lived last year. We've put it off as long as we could, just sheer laziness is the reason why. And so Monday, as soon as Branden was sent off to school, we jumped onto the highway (which we hate because we have to pay, lol) and went and did the license plates. It was amazingly super fast. Took under 30 minutes from start to finish. We had about 2 hours of unexpected free time on our hands, so we decided to run to Costco and get some cleaning wipes, remember they were out of stock the last time we were there.

It wasn't planned at all, but it was so nice to get a chance to be at Costco. : )

We got the basics of basics. Only 5 things total. We didn't have time to stroll every single aisle and we really didn't need to either. We saw the rain coats for kids, but again we have those already and I bought B's in size 6 anyway (and he's only 5 won't be 6 until the end of Oct.) and Noah's is size 2T, so we didn't really need those this year, thank goodness or anything else except for the 5 small things. We just got the cleansing wipes. Apple juice for the kids, dinner rolls and ricotta cheese because I'm making lasagna this week. We also got Branden a 3 pack of kids colorful Speedo goggles. I figured since Branden takes all those swimming lessons, it was a good and useful buy for us! You can see a pizza box in the bottom of this pic. We bought a whole peperoni pizza to take home. We thought, it would be a good idea for a simple and fast dinner. However, we were so hungry Noboru, Noah and I each had a few slices while driving back home on the highway. We had to hurry because we didn't want to be late to pick up B from the bus stop after school.

LOL, don't laugh. Hey it's honest! We threw the pizza into the oven and rewarmed it, and yup the slices we ate from lunch were indeed missing, ha ha ha. I put bell peppers, onions and mushrooms on my side. Noboru just put mushrooms on his and Branden just kept it like it was. Ha ha ha. That way we each got it the way we like it. We had Fanta grape soda with ice. The kids had iced tea. Took showers, all got into our jammies.


We've got so much going on here at the house right now. We've been just so busy you guys! I'll update soon again, I need to, because so much is going on it's crazy. But in short, my MIL is coming to our house soon. We are heading to Osaka next month, plus we are still heading to Guam next week and packing and all that crap and you get the idea. And we have been looking to buy a new car for the past couple month's. We have been looking *extremely* hard this past 2 weeks. And sorta why we switched over the license plate on our old car, that way we can sell it. But it needed to be registered to Narita versus where we used to live in Chiba. Ahhhh, so many many changes!
