Great Grades Deserve Sushi!

Because the kids got GREAT report cards this nine weeks, Brian promised them dinner out.  Surprise, Surprise, Ashley and Daniel agreed on Japeniero's, a Sushi Bistro we all love.  Even though Ashley and Birdie don't like sushi, they LOVE the "Baby Roll" on the kid's menu.  It is a chicken nugget wrapped in rice and seaweed - like sushi.  


Daniel, on the other hand, will eat his weight in sushi.  His favorites include California roll and Mount Fuji. 

Ashley requested sitting outside on the patio as part of our dinner.  Thankfully, the weather was gorgeous. 
Ashley and I got the afternoon started by shopping together for her First Communion dress.  We had a great time walking the mall together from store to store.  After trying on several, Ashley fell in love with the "princess" style dress she tried on first. We bought it, a purse and shoes.  We ran out of time to find her a headpiece for her veil, but we still have a couple of weeks to get it done.  If we'd had more time, she wanted me to try on a colorful long prom dress for fun!  I was game, I mean, how often do you get to dress up for your daughter in purple sequins and satin?


We met up with Brian and the other kids on the patio of Japaniero's for tasty sushi and great weather.  Great food, great conversation for great grades.  What a night.  We are very proud of our scholars!

wow, if there was ever any doubt that Ashley resembles Brian and Daniel looks just like you, that's completely removed from those last two photos. Spitting images!!

Good grades sounds like a great reason to go get Sushi!
