Home, Sweet Home

Upon our return from Japan, James and I were oh-so-happy to spend over two weeks with our wonderful families in the spacious and quiet town of Lynden. It was a stark contrast from Tokyo, and we were quite ready for the change. Our families loved up on us and spoiled us, and we had a fabulous time!

Here are some pics from a joint family BBQ:

Thanks, family, for the great two weeks at home!
