Happy Happy Birthday, Bear!

Our favorite freckled boy turned 12 on Saturday!  We spent the day at SEGA Joypolis in Osaka with his two best friends, and, after striking out at both a Brazilian and a Mexican restaurant, settled on tonkatsu for his birthday dinner.  It was the first birthday in a long time that featured no Legos from us, although one of his friends gave him some, so it wasn't a completely Legoless birthday.

Sunday we celebrated with his favorite ice cream birthday cake.

Bear is a joy to have in our family.  He's growing up fast!
