URASOE CITY, Japan -- (Feb. 9, 2009) Kai leads a squad of Johnston marines around the house Monday. Please not the PT uniform of pants and no shirt. Even Ken joined in the fun. This is typical of a night at our house. Loud, loud and loud. Sorry this is the best quality of video from my cell phone.

Run Ken Run

URASOE CITY, Japan - (Feb. 3, 2009) -- Ken runs with his car toy down the street outside our home. Of all our kids, Ken is the fastest at his age. He's a speed freak and sometimes can be difficult to watch because he is so fast. I've resorted to using Kai's Razor Scooter to follow him, that's how this video was shot, instead of chasing him on foot.

URASOE CITY, Japan -- (Feb. 1, 2009) -- Kai gets pushed by Kou on a toy in front of our house and Ken follows later in the video. The noise in the video is typical Johnston boys. Of course Tomoe just loves the fact that they're so loud in our small quaint Japanese neighborhood.

Swings

CAMP KINSER, Japan (Feb. 1, 2009) -- Kou and Ken swing on some swings at a park about 100 yards from the South China Sea at a U.S. Marine logistics base north of Naha in Okinawa. The two were out trying to get rid of some of their endless supply of energy.

At the park

CAMP KINSER, Japan (Feb. 1, 2009) -- Ken and Kou play on a whale at a park about 100 yards from the South China Sea Sunday as weather he was like a sunny fall day even though it is Feb. 1.
