Well the week of the 6th year has come and gone. The birthdays in our family are seemingly neverending, aren't they! In years past, there has been a rather large gathering at home for the Weechan's birthday, but this year, we've already had a few gatherings lately, and, more importantly, February's birthday just happened to coincide with the arrival at the cinemas here in Japan of one "High School Musical 3", which happens to be the very raisond'etre of the birthday girl at the moment.
So.. ever the nutters, Mummy and Y-chan's Mummy, decided to invite all my friends to go with us to see the movie, and then on to Haagen Dazs for ice cream.

There were 32 of us! 20 kids and 12 adults.
From the youngest...
to the oldest (!)...
and from all over the world...
we all seemed to enjoy the movie!Go Wildcats!
The quietest moment was when we all had our ice cream.
The blonde table.
The girls at the back.
And the die hards made it to the park and played until it was almost dark.
Thanks to everyone who came and thank you so much for all your wonderful gifts. Weechan is the luckiest girl I know!
So the movie was last Saturday, a week before the big day itself, but the fun kept coming all week, courtesy of the Japan Post Office. Thanks to all who sent gifts from afar. We are always particularly happy when we get these tickets through the door if we are not in when they try to deliver.
The Japanese to the left of the word "SENDER" is "sashidashinin" which means, you guessed it, sender.
We're always glad to know in advance that the parcel came from the sender!

And finally, yesterday, she really was 6!!
Not a bad haul really! Thanks everyone!
After much much much deliberation, Mummy and Daddy decided on roller skates, which seems to have been a popular decision, thank goodness.
"Look Mummy! They flash" Thanks Granny!
And with this gorgeous dress from Finn, the birthday outfit was complete! Thanks Frasers!
The cake. In keeping with this year's theme.
So we had the neighbours over for a small birthday afternoon tea.
More presents! Thanks guys!
Well the cake is too much for just 3 people.
Then it was off out to Weechan's favourite Italian for dinner with Ba-chan and Ji-chan.
