Time for T-shirts! 

Using this t-shirt press we found at our friend's neighbor's garage sale,
t-shyatsu o tsukattandesu! (We made t-shirts :D)

Mom and I used this thing at over 300 degrees for 12-15 seconds to make the magic happen while Maxwell Smart conspired against the Chaos Organization's doppelgänger of himself. And zey are beautiful! (The t-shirts that is)

So now to celebrate we're watching "Get Smart".  #LifeIsGood #EternalLifeIsBetter 

THIS

This is premiering while we are gone. And unfortunately I do not know enough Japanese to catch all that they say. Suz realized this and we were all D8 (This is a scared face with a dropped jaw. Turn your head to the right.)

Does anyone know how to record this beauty? Both Suz and I will love you dearly.

On our last Google+ meeting, we discovered the magic of Google Effects. Nuff said.

This is going to be a growing point. Yet, it's still sort of talking? (Close enough)

One of our street performances is going to be a mime drama based off of this lovely children's book here. It is about a teddy bear who gets rejected in the store, then swept away in a tsunami that takes him to where he would truly be loved by a little girl who has a bunch of friends who had plushies they loved. It's a lot like the story of the Christian life, where we fail, go through tragedy, then are brought by them to God, with the added element of fellowship. Kinda like "God Bless the Broken Road" only kinda like "God Bless the Broken Waves" ish... yeah!

We'll be doing this one in Morioka, where the tsunami hit pretty hard a few years ago. Please pray that this will reach the people there!

Almost done getting packed now!

Which includes making our t-shirts with our handy dandy.... *Ding!* T-shirt press! 

After finally realizing that the iron-on transfers were in the OFFICE section of Wal-Mart and not the craft section (go figure,) team shirts are finally back on!

Packing also means mass amounts of packing and repacking, considering I realize after I zip up my suitcase that I need said items I just packed. This is usually the reason I set aside packing for the night before, but that's not a very lovely habit, now is it? 

But now I have everything I need, save for the morning-of-packing items and said t-shirts. Yay for planning ahead. Which in this case also means time to move on to packing for college. The fun just never ends, does it? *insert noisemaker here*

Two more days then Chicago, and a day or two after that and off to the 20-hour bonding time we like to call overseas flying. The way time zones work, I think we may be time travelling into the future as well an extra twenty-four hours as Japan is 19 hours ahead and usually in tomorrow...... if ya carry the one and multiply by the square root of x to the power of pi......... oh never mind. I bought gummy bears and strawberry cheesecake cookies for the flight so Elissa and I will likely care less. Suz will have it in her High School Musical Binder of Life. She schedules everything in there. Hopefully this

Anyways, off to make the shirts! Backs will be finished tonight and the front emblem shall be pressed on tomorrow morning before a completely unrelated lunch meeting.

And as I do this Dad is enjoying his after-work hours watching John Wayne movies. Life is good.
