Samantha's First Sports Day

In Japan, schools hold an annual Sports Day, or Field Day.  Children practice for weeks, learning songs and dances, marching around, and running running running.  When the day comes, Moms and Dads and Grandmas and Grandpas all show up to sit in the sun and watch their little darlings perform.

Samantha's first ever Sports Day was early in October, on a pleasantly partly cloudy Sunday.  K and I of course were in attendance, but we weren't alone.  Grandma and JiJi showed up too, and Samantha's cousin Saaya stopped by for lunch.  A good time was had by all, as the pictures will show.
