Halloween has passed, the girls' and Nate's birthdays have past,

クリスマスの準備です

So now we get to decorate for Christmas.

日本に感謝祭はないので 次の行事はクリスマスです

Since there is no American Thanksgiving in Japan, we go straight to celebrating Christmas.

でも我が家は七面鳥で 感謝祭をします！

Although we still do eat turkey and mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving!

- デコレーション中？ - そう！

Is this part of setting up decorations? Yep!

靴下の準備

I am doing the stockings.

靴下吊るす準備？ いいね！

Getting ready to hang the stockings up here? Very cool!

- 後で見て - OK

I can show you when it's done. OK

ライトが点いたね 飾りも付けよう！

Oh look! The lights are done and the ornaments are going up!

ここからやろう！

Hey guys, you should start doing over here.

後ろはいいわよ

Not too much in the back... Yeah, because...

誰も見ないし バランス良くね

No one's going to see it, but it has to go all the way around.

いいね！綺麗だよ！

Oh fun, fun, fun! Beautiful!

何か描こうかな

I think I'm going to draw something.

クレヨン？飾るの？

Crayons? Is that an ornament?

きれい！

Sweet! It was for me.

日米の双方で 感謝祭とクリスマスはありますが

Both Japan and America celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas, although in different ways.

この祝日は 喜びと希望に溢れた特別な日です

These holidays have many traditions, but at the heart of these celebrations are true stories full of joy and hope.

2020年も終わりですが 改めてお祝いしたいですね

With 2020 coming to a close, it's good to remind ourselves of these things and celebrate once again.

- 新しい曲？ - うん

You're doing a new song Anna? Um hum.

みんな！調子どう？

Hey everybody! How's it going?

何食べてるの？ママの料理は？

What's everybody eating? What did Mama-chan make?

美味しいわ

Oh, it's so good!

人の料理って美味しいわ

Oh! It's extra good when someone else makes it.

ツリーもあって お祝い気分だね

With the Christmas tree over there, it's very festive. And when your'e hungry!

- 業務スーパーの豚肉？ - そうよ！

Is this the pork that you bought at Gyomu? It is!

美味しい

So good!

急いで食べて これから娘達の塾です

So I had a quick bite to eat, and now we take Becca and Anna to jyuku.

- 塾って？ - 学校と別に勉強するの

What is jyuku? Where you do extra school kind-of-thingy.

どんな勉強するの？

Extra school! What does it help you do?

算数や国語 何でもだよ

Math, kokugo, anything.

ケンジ先生が褒めてたよ

Do you know that last time Kenji Sensei said that you're doing so good

学校よりかなり進んでるって

That you're already up to your elementary school level and beyond!

凄いね！

Dude! Awesome! Way to go, girls!

狭い路地です

These are our little streets! Oh my!

沢山の人

Lot's of people. And traffic.

密集してます

And it's all got to squeeze down the same place.

- 抜けたよ - 狭い道

Now that's a little better, huh? That's a tiny street.

もう広い道だよ

That's a tiny street but it gets wider here though. So that's good.

日本の感謝祭は "勤労感謝の日"といいます

Japan also has it's own version of Thanksgiving, called Kinrōkanshanohi, or Labor Thanksgiving.

働く人達に感謝する日です

It's a day set aside to congratulate others on their hard work and enjoy meeting together.

今日は妹と買い物です

OK, today, the sisters are going to go shopping.

子供抜きの買い物の様子を紹介します！

And we're going to show you what it's like to do shopping just with moms and no kids.

Yesterday we were playing here and we got a ball stuck in the tree.

別のボールで落とそうとしたら そのボールが引っ掛かりました

But today we came back out and found it.

梯子を使って取ります

But now we threw a heavy ball, the girl's heavy soccer ball up there to get it and it got stuck.

取れたね！

So now I got a ladder and a big reacher thing to get these balls out.
