My how time flies, but we are sure everyone feels that way. We are now approaching the end of our 3rd year in our house, and we still enjoy it very much. We only wish that Jim could enjoy it more often. Jim continues his project which takes him to Vienna, Austria frequently. The current project involves deploying the application in Japan, so Jim has the opportunity to visit Japan on business. This year, we were able to go to Okinawa.
Kyoko continues to volunteer at a local high school for assisting in teaching Japanese. Kyoko also has some students she is tutoring.
On a sad note, Kyoko's grandmother anddog both passed away in 2005. Since Kyoko was her grandmother's first grandchild, there was always a special connection between them. And Santakun was Kyoko's baby, but even after Kyoko moved to the US, the family thought it was best to stay in Japan to keep the dogs together. She misses them very much and wish she could have been there for their last days. In Japan, it would be awkward to put the picture of someone who passed away on a someone's picture on a celebratory card, but Kyoko thought it would be ok to include Santakun's picture.
We have started to use Flickr for posting our pictures. You can see our pictures at http://www.flickr.com/photos/jimandkyoko. It would be helpful to have captions on the photos. One of these days... In addition, we have started a blog using Google's Blogger. You can see our blog at http://jimandkyoko.blogspot.com.
