5 years

I can't believe we were getting married 5 years ago today!  This time 5 years ago, I was getting ready with Jenny, Lauren, Chris and my mom.  = )  And the guys hid Scott down the street and almost forgot to tell him it was time to start the wedding!  Good thing he was wearing a watch.

Last year we took an amazing vacation to Thailand, but this year we went a little more low-key. There is a new Cirque du Soleil theater at the Disney Resort in Tokyo that opened on October 1st.  We were really lucky to get tickets to the opening weekend.  It was an amazing performance.  There were clowns, jugglers, trapeze artists, tight rope walkers, and women who did crazy things from ropes, bungie cords and fabric hanging from the ceiling.  Japanese aren't usually vocal when they watch a performance.  When Scott and I go to the movies, we are literally the only one's laughing.  But at Cirque, everyone was laughing, gasping and clapping.  It was very fun.

My favorite present is this picture one of my students drew for us.  Very cute...

Here are a few pictures of us outside the theater.  Unfortunately, we couldn't take pictures inside.
