We had a good evening with Tomomi-chan and her husband Kohei. They came over in the early evening, and we spent a nice time eating tacos, playing Wii and drinking and eating some of the spoils of ä¸å…ƒ (chugen).
Nozaki sensei called and said she had some presents for me from some of my students’ parents, so she was nice enough to drive them over. There was a big box of beer, some somen noodles, and lots of sweets. Luckily Tomomi and Kohei helped us out with eating the desserts.
Tomomi wasn’t drinking, and when Kuniko asked why she told us that she was pregnant! That is exciting news for them. They are such nice, gentle people – they’ll make great parents! They are expecting sometime around February of next year, so it’s pretty early in the pregnancy but you could tell that they were really excited.
Kohei did the drinking for both of them, and he very gamely had a shot of tequila with me, and drank beer and wine throughout the evening. We all had a great time with the Wii, and I’m a little bit sore from playing so much tennis with them.
As usual it was a great evening with them. We walked them to the station and promised to get together again soon.
