My favorite Christmas decoration is this house! This house was decorated many Christmases items! It was beautiful decoration!

I met Grinch and took a picture with Grinch.

I met Santa Claus for the first time in downtown. My host mother took me, Mina, Nana, and Keito to Christmas craft sale. I bought 5 Christmas card which is hand made. In the afternoon, I went to snowshoe. At first, it was hard for me to walk while wearing the snowshoe. However, it was really fun winter activity. In the night, I slept very well.

I took a picture with Yuko! We put on the Santa hat!

I decorated the Christmas tree with my host mother.

I went to the hill to sled with Keito and Nana. The hill was very steep, so I worried that we might get hurt. My face was covered with snow while I rode on the magic carpet. However, we really enjoyed this activity. Also, we can see the beautiful viewing on top on the hill.

I watched the hockey game! The most surprising thing was that Mina was on TV. The game made me excited and more fun.

I volunteered at a children’s Japanese class. The children wrote the letter to Santa Claus, so I helped them how to write in Japanese. After that, I read the picture book for children. I had a great time with the children.

I bought everything the day before and dressed up as Maleficent. I was embarrassed at first, but I was no longer shy while performing. It was really fun because I have never dressed up some characters in Halloween. Also, I went to say, “Trick or treat.” while dressed up Maleficent and gave the snacks to the children. When I gave the snacks, the children said to me “I like your costume.”, so I was really happy! I think about the next costume.

We picked up the pumpkin for pumpkin patch. After that, we did corn maze with Nana. This is my favorite picture! I really enjoyed in this day.
