Origami 101


So our awesome landlords, who are currently living in Japan, have sent us a couple of care packages. Each package is filled with fun treats and toys from Japan.
First we all sit around the table and share each of the fun Japanese treats in the package. Some are tasty some not so much but the fun part is trying. In each package has also been some origami.

The most recent package included a pack of origami paper for each boy. Planes for Christian and boats for Parker.


Christian picked a couple of jets to fold. Daddy helped him fold 2 perfect jets!


Parker had his eye on the pirate ship. Since Daddy was busy with Christian this was Mommy's job. Isn't it going to be neat?!



Mommy gets started. It's looking so good! She has to quit and help Ella for a while. Unfortunately for Parker Daddy doesn't read Japanese. Neither does Mommy but she was fairing much better than Daddy.


Somehow Daddy interpreted somewhere on here to crush the boat.



Origami gone terribly wrong!

Thank you Cheney's for a fun evening!
