Making ice cream at the library and other things...

The library on MCAS Iwakuni has a great summer reading program and yesterday they had an ice cream social. They actually got to make the ice cream - after story time where an elephant did not want to share his ice cream. This was a great set up because siblings then had to share the Ziploc baggie of ice cream.

Shake, shake, shake!

Since 10-year-olds can run around base without supervision, we got Will an inexpensive cell phone. Here is a photo of him learning to text:

Every Wednesday the base offers Mongolian Barbecue night, and the kids had a great time picking out their meats, vegetables and sauces for the chefs to cook in front of them:


If you haven't checked my public blog lately, the most recent post on there is about our orientation and Japanese drivers ed.
