For mothers day, Melina and I got up early to make her a special breakfast. We made chocolate waffles and a chocolate milkshake with some extra chocolate on the side.

This year due to the pandemic we didnt have a big Xmas party, and instead had a nice quiet but delicious Xmas dinner as a family.

This year we had just a small Thanksgiving dinner with a few other people in my house. I still made a huge turkey and all the usual foods.

For my birthday, my girls baked me the best green melon cake ever!

No big party for Easter this year, obviously due to fears of COVID-19, but we still celebrated as a family. We made Easter eggs, did our egg hunt outside, and made all the traditional Easter foods, just not as much of them.

Nothing too exiting for Girls Day. We made the usual sushi balls, clam soup, and three layer jelly. Melina made the male and female dolls display.

There was a lot of people again for the bean throwing festival at the house. Melina liked making and eating the sushi rolls, and this year she made her own Oni mask at school.
