Happy Birthday Jelly Bean

March 13th was Jelly Bean's 2nd birthday!  We celebrated on Saturday since I had to go to school on Friday.  On Saturday morning it was rainy but that did not stop us.  We put Jelly in his coat and went in the car.  We went to a park called Sagamihara Park and walked around.  He had a blast.  We walked around a fountain but there was a sign that said "No Dogs" so we kept going.  We came to a lake and he chased a duck.  He really liked running through the puddles in the rain.  I climbed up a giant tree house but he couldn't go with me.  The rain stopped so we went to an outdoor cafe where there was a spot where we could tie Jelly up next to our table.  We ate ramen (a kind of noodle soup) and ice cream.  Then we walked through some pretty gardens.  The flowers are just starting to bloom.  On our way back to our car we met a giant, white dog.  He was really big and friendly and drooly!  I liked him.  So did Jelly.  Next we headed home.  Later we had a little birthday party.  We sang Happy Birthday to him and then he ate his filet mignon doggy food cake.  Then he licked the plate and got every little bit.  Mommy said we could put the plate back in the cabinet, ha ha.  I think he had a great birthday.  Sorry, but we forgot the camera so no pictures.

Having a great time in Japan,
